Almost every single day I TLDR!

Here, I list all the articles, blog posts, pages I've read, or videos I've watched, that I found interesting. It's like a huge shared bookmarks registry with y'all! Or it's like a daily newsletter without newsletter. I also maintain a blog if you're interested.

I'm reading mostly about Scala, Data Engineering, Java, Javascript, Big Data, DDD, and technology. 💪

Note for my past/current/future employer: this is stuff I'm reading mostly off work of course. 🙈
