Summary of things I do frequently or that I learned the hard way

Console tips

  • Search for whole words occurence:
ag "\bWHOLEWORD\b" # or
ag -w WHOLEWORD

Advices

  • Always keep your tests in sync with your source code.
  • At the very least, this means in the same repository. Ideally code and tests are updated together in the same commit.
  • Make your startup / boot / init sequence independent of system configuration. Avoid early optimization.

Calendars

Use ICU libraries that deal with all subtleties!
