No matter what language or technology stack you use, if you can describe your code with these adjectives, good code should follow
From a while back, but still very current.

For my link list, especially because how it categorises the various kinds of messages: [WayBack] Getting Started with Azure Event Grid Scenarios | Serverless360 Blog:
- messaging, which conveys an intent
- eventing, which conveys a fact
- series events, which represent a stream of events belonging together (like telemetry, logging, or streaming data)
- discrete events, which are independent, and report some type of state change
If you use Azure, these solutions then apply to the categories:
- messaging: Azure Event Bus
- series events: Azure Event Hub
- discrete events: Azure Event Grid

For running Visual Studio Code from the terminal, you need to do a few extra steps as from Running Visual Studio Code on macOS: Get Visual Studio Code up and running on Mac (macOS):
Launching from the Command Line
You can also run VS Code from the terminal by typing ‘code’ after adding it to the path:
- Launch VS Code.
- Open the Command Palette (⇧⌘P) and type ‘shell command’ to find the Shell Command: Install ‘code’ command in PATH command.
- Restart the terminal for the new
$PATHvalue to take effect. You’ll be able to type ‘code .’ in any folder to start editing files in that folder.Note: If you still have the old
codealias in your.bash_profile(or equivalent) from an early VS Code version, remove it and replace it by executing the Shell Command: Install ‘code’ command in PATH command.To manually add VS Code to your path:
cat << EOF >> ~/.bash_profile # Add Visual Studio Code (code) export PATH="\$PATH:/Applications/Visual Studio Code.app/Contents/Resources/app/bin" EOF
This is what the code command is and does:
$ which code
/usr/local/bin/code
$ ls -alh `which code`
lrwxr-xr-x 1 jeroenp admin 68B Apr 16 13:24 /usr/local/bin/code -> /Applications/Visual Studio Code.app/Contents/Resources/app/bin/code
$ cat `which code`
#!/usr/bin/env bash

function realpath() { /usr/bin/python -c "import os,sys; print(os.path.realpath(sys.argv[1]))" "$0"; }
CONTENTS="$(dirname "$(dirname "$(dirname "$(dirname "$(realpath "$0")")")")")"
ELECTRON="$CONTENTS/MacOS/Electron"
CLI="$CONTENTS/Resources/app/out/cli.js"

exit $?

Finding the github commit search page was not obvious to me as the main page only allows searching for repositories, and commit pages insides repositories do not have a search box:
Luckily there are two search pages that can search issues:
You can get to both by stumbling on [WayBack] About searching on GitHub – User Documentation, then clicking “Search using a visual interface”
The first search page has built-in help which I have included below, though not explaining how to search for commits which are in [WayBack] Searching commits – User Documentation, and certainly does not tell you need to add type=commitsto the search box.

Just in case I need to explain this to someone, as it has been a long time ago I did this: [WayBack] windows – Is there a single UAC binary? – Super User.

I need to put some time in understanding git merge --no-ff.

I like it when people find out that Rubber Ducking is a good thing.
Read the story at [WayBack] … I’ve read about ‘rubber ducking’ and thought of it as a good thing, but I never really use/did it. Also I knew that SO showed me the value of MCVE,… – Mike Torrettinni – Google+

20+ years old and still relevant: [WayBack] Science Fiction Writer Robert J. Sawyer: WordStar: A Writer’s Word Processor.
Besides doing a very quick and thorough introduction in the what and how of the WordStar keyboard shortcuts, he also explains a lot about the why.
Recommended reading, especially because of a user-experience perspective.
Markdown, Atom and Visual Studio code are not that different from WordStar.

This is amazing stuff: it runs your C# code through a specific version (git branch) of the C# compiler!
