"How do you deal with code snippets in blog posts getting outdated?"

Every time I give a talk about blogging for developers, I'm asked this. Now I started to take action with the first iteration of the solution.

I added version metadata to my blog posts and display them at the start of the post.

I (re)posted my third flash fiction short story, “Quality Control” to my blog, so if you haven't chance to read it, check it out: https://preslav.me/2025/03/21/quality-control/

In doing so, I think, I will close my Musings website and post all my content (technical, creative fiction, photo stories) from my usual place on the Internet - albeit, under different sections. It's just too much to manage so many different distribution channels otherwise.

Yesterday at @HelPy , I was asked how I deal with impostor syndrome when it comes to publishing blog posts.

For me, learning and building in public has actually become a way for me to combat it, as backwards as it might sound. I've written about it in the blog:

I have many home-cooked software tools - apps that I've built for myself to solve my own problems.

As I like to share my projects with the world, I've recently ended up spending quite a lot of time thinking about how much polish to the UX I should put into my own tools beyond my own needs.

One of Flipboard’s biggest benefits is its stunning visual presentation, turning every image into a scroll-stopping experience. However, nothing is more frustrating when you’ve built a beautiful Flipboard magazine, but your pictures don’t appear!
During my many years using Flipboard, I tried different things. After enough trial and error, I finally figured out a couple of workarounds.
In this article, I’ll share some of the things that helped. #Flipboard #Blogging #Publishing #Images #FlipboardMagazines #FliboardUserGroup

I am downright delighted to announce that my latest book, YOU DESERVE A TECH UNION, has a brand new look. I really love it, and I hope you do too.

Here’s a look at what’s changed and—maybe more importantly—what’s stayed the same:

hey! I've just moved here today and i thought I'd start by introducing myself. I'm an ecologist, specialized in avian and herpetofaunal ecology. i am also very interested in the data science aspect of the discipline, and i am working on getting more familiar with the ins and outs of R programming, and hopefully moving to more conventional programming, so i can feed into my other interests.

i am also muchly into open source software, specifically Emacs and Void Linux, and in my free time, work on contributing to Void Linux packages and my Emacs config. i tend to talk about all of these things a lot.

I'm big on cats. well, basically everything about them. expect a LOT of photos.

i also play the guitar a little and I'm predominantly into loud and dark music. I do talk about the music i listen to as well, both here and on my blog articles.

i also occasionally like to indulge in woodworking, and i hope to get more active with it

i have been blogging since 2016, on and off, and recently revived my blog after a hiatus of nearly 2 years.
