  1. Fast prototyping with Elixir

    Recently, I had an interesting problem to solve. I needed to build a system that would receive a file on an endpoint and perform some computation for each line of the file. The computation requires an external API call and the creation of some records in the database. Simple enough, right? The fun part starts when we realize we are dealing with a file that can be tens of thousands of lines long.

  3. Using slow motion to make better CSS animations

    CSS animations and transitions are a great way of adding some delight to your user experience. But once you start dealing with more than just a couple of simple animations, it can be hard to manage and coordinate everything easily. Sometimes, you know something is off, but you're not sure what. Especially when there are several things happening at the same time, it's hard to understand - basically, the animations are at the right speed for our brain to sense something is not right, but too fast for our brain to figure out exactly what is wrong.

  4. From Nutritionist to Product Designer: Reinventing My Career at 30

    I start by saying that it's not just at 30 or 40 year old, but at any point in life when we feel our path should change. Sometimes, we are dominated by the fear of wasting our investment in one area, by the uncertainty of the new path, or simply by the inertia that the daily routine brings. We let these reasonings shape our lives and endure day after day, always imagining what could have been. But is that investment reason enough not to live the rest of our days as we wish? Is that uncertainty so catastrophic? Is it not worth stopping for a moment to think about the direction we want for our life?

  6. Smooth motion with three.js and Threlte

    Creating 3D scenes in a browser is a rewarding and fun task, but it's also challenging. There are plenty of things to consider - lights, cameras, materials, etc - just to setup a decent looking static scene. And then we have to decide how to add some movement to our scene.
