Val Paliy
Quick post on my plans for this blog. Basically, I am planning to recommend you, the reader, what I use myself - be it a computer keyboard I use, a book I’ve read or a coffee brand I like. What will be covered (the list is subject to change with time): Programming Coding Books Hardware Software Merchandise Hope you will find my recommendations useful, or at the very least - entertaining.

On Coding And Artificial Intelligence

Val Paliy
AI, or Artificial Intelligence, is big at the moment, and to no surprise. AI can help humanity in many different areas, such as diagnosing an illness at an early stage, or assisting a driver with direction, or driving you to a desired destination. While it is debatable whether or not we should trust AI to take over crucial areas of our lives (have you seen “Terminator?"), one area I found Artificial Intelligence to be particularly useful in is programming.

Let's Talk About Fonts (Part 1)

Val Paliy
Let’s face it - as developers we look at code 90% of our time we spend in front of the monitor. While there tons of fonts available for our favorite text editors, both free and paid, I have found one font in particular to be extremely enjoyable (and believe me - I’ve tried a few). That is - JetBrains Mono, a free and open source font from the very same company that brought us tools like WebStorm and PyCharm.

What Have I Been Up To Recently?

Val Paliy
If you’ve been following my blog you might have noticed that I haven’t written anything in quite some time. “So, what’s up?”, you might ask. Well, long story short - lots of things have happened March through May, 2021. Most of them unpleasant to say the least and personal, so I’d rather not disclose the details. However, I’ve also done a few things related to Information Technologies. I’ve switched to Windows entirely.
