Delicious Foods That Were Born from Mistakes and Stubbornness
History is filled with inventions born out of necessity, but some of the world’s most famous foods exist simply because someone felt petty. Whether it was a battle against big corporations, a middle finger to social norms, or just a chef refusing to admit they made a mistake, these foods exist solely because someone wanted […]

I read a lot about Clean Code, SOLID, TDD, DDD… now I’m discovering «A Philosophy of Software Design»… but nobody talks about the importance of the project architecture. Do we depend on the framework to do the work for us?
You know I’m a big fan of Clean Architecture, but I feel alone when I share my thoughts on social media or at work.
You have to think outside the framework.
