Hi, I’m Jilles.

A physicist by training, I funded my studies as a millenium bug-debugger in a Cobol dialect in the late 90’s.
When the millenium rolled over I moved to computer vision and C++ and some assembly-language.
After some years of that I moved to the financial sector and currently I’m head of a small team working almost exclusively in Java.

Hey all!
I’m Ciacci (cha-chi), been working as a web developer since 2017. I’ve dabbled in Python and Clojure for some of my early gigs, but mostly have been in the back-end space as a Rails dev. Currently learning Typescript and React alongside Rails as a full-stack dev at Parachute Health.

Looking forward to giving this a go : )

Hi everyone!

I’m Joe Masilotti. I run a reverse job board for Ruby on Rails developers called RailsDevs.

I’m using this 30 day challenge to improve the code quality of the platform. The codebase is open source and you can follow the commits on GitHub.

I’m looking forward to meeting everyone!

Great question! It’s actually slightly less than 30 emails as they are sent out over the course of 30 days only on “business” days.

Emails are only sent M-F and not on the Saturday and Sunday of the same week… so for example this Friday’s email will be #4 and next Monday’s will be #7 :sweat_smile:.

  • I’m a freelance developer, working on a productivity app called “Centered” at the moment
  • Legacy Code is my jam, I’m always looking to hone my skills around tackling it. “Code Quality Challenge” sounded a perfect fit :ok_hand:

I’ve seen some familiar faces around here—hi @ClareMacrae :wave:

Looking forward to starting our journey!

Hi everyone!

I’m Moncef Belyamani. I’m the creator of Ruby on Mac, the easiest way to set up and maintain a proper Ruby dev environment on a Mac.

This is my second time going through the CQC, but the first time as a solo entrepreneur. I’m using it to improve some of my Rails open source projects, and the various repos that power Ruby on Mac.

Hi Martin :wave:

Localyze looks like a great service to help companies that want to transition to a distributed structure. Have you seen an uptake in users as this approach has leapfrogged in popularity after the various Covid-19 lockdowns?
