Born from year one of The Coder Cafe, the newsletter trusted by 3,000+ readers, this contains distills timeless concepts to help you master the fundamentals of software engineering: code health, testing, distributed systems, critical thinking, and more.Written by Teiva Harsanyi, Google SWE and published author, it supports your growth as an engineer, one concept at a time.

Build bulletproof Spring Boot microservices—from monolith migration to domain-driven design and event-driven patterns—while mastering the production essentials of resilience, observability, and zero‑downtime delivery. Turn complex domains into clean, scalable services with bounded contexts, aggregates, repositories, and domain events, then ship faster with rate‑limited APIs, backoff‑retries, and Kubernetes rollouts. If leading Java teams to reliable, cloud‑ready microservices is the goal, this is the hands‑on guide that gets systems into production with confidence.

Learn how to analyze .NET application and service crashes and freezes, navigate memory dump space (managed and unmanaged code), and diagnose corruption, leaks, CPU spikes, blocked threads, deadlocks, wait chains, resource contention, and much more using WinDbg on Windows and LLDB on Linux. Covers 22 .NET memory dump analysis patterns, plus the additional 21 unmanaged patterns.
