I’m probably too jaded for this, but I don’t see how next time won’t be different.

I was in a band and we needed a website; figured it wouldn’t be so hard. Got hacked and then wanted to make sure I never was hacked again, so dough into everything I could find on the internet.

I did hear of them already a while back, but also the having to pay to run containers aspect seems pretty odd to me.

I haven’t, oddly enough I’ve never hit performance issues that were not caused by developers themselves.

Another big part of this is DMARC and DKIM setup, which is a lot more important since last year. Having that setup if you're emailing yourself programatically is essential: www.cloudflare.com/en-gb/learni... big spam penalty if it's not correct. And "dkim alignment": mxtoolbox.com/dmarc/dkim/d...

Mailput seems to use an API provided by SpamAssassin (github.com/axllent/mail...) but also has things like HTML checks. All of these are exposed over an API as well as viewable in a dashboard. Not sure if such an approach fits your use-case, but looks pretty helpful :)

Frank de Jonge @frankdejonge.bsky.social · 06/12/2024

I use mailpit which has a scoring mechanism which it partially uses a spamassassin api for. Can look up the specifics in a bit, on mobile right now

I’m not super by the book on my event storming sessions, so I wouldn’t know which method I use. I kind of mix in event sourcing terminology so it maps to code easier. In that scheme I miss a way to express when a command can not result into an event, or when it is conditional which events are raised

000

Frank de Jonge @frankdejonge.bsky.social · 03/12/2024

Btw, what you describe as policies in event storming is different from how I use them. For me, policies are behind commands and they guard internal consistency. I use process managers for what you describe as policies.

The corners in Google Calendar have a new border radius, which means somebody in engineering just got their promo-package in order.

Frank de Jonge @frankdejonge.bsky.social · 02/12/2024

For me, these models are tasked with enforcing conceptual/model consistency, they embed the policy. In evenstorming those would be policies behind commands, in code though they’re not as isolated as eventstorming has them.

I wish I didn't have to post this again, but here we are:

The common language in people who are familiar helps, but I’ve seen the tactical nature of the names leave a lot of room for varying interpretations and dogmatic viewpoints. Both which hurt innovation and progress.

Frank de Jonge @frankdejonge.bsky.social · 01/12/2024

Not nearly as often as I have to explain the terms Aggregate and the finer intricacies of read/write models. When people move from a crud-centric worldview, the separation needs to be explained but in my experience that’s easier done using decision/presentation framing.

100

Frank de Jonge @frankdejonge.bsky.social · 01/12/2024

Not sure if these new found terms will ever be common ground across engineers at large, but so far they have helped in my own conversations talking about various models with specific responsibilities.

020

Frank de Jonge @frankdejonge.bsky.social · 01/12/2024

In the same breath, the term Decision Model also replaced my use of the term Aggregate, a term commonly used in the event-sourcing and domain driven design communities. This term is also oddly tactical, describing that the model consists of a collection of objects that operate as a single unit.

200

Frank de Jonge @frankdejonge.bsky.social · 01/12/2024

What bugged me about the terms Write- and ReadModel is that the are tactical terms. They describe an implementation details, which ironically is not unique to either side. Both sides are read from and written to.

100

Frank de Jonge @frankdejonge.bsky.social · 01/12/2024

I’ve been using different terms for read and write models, because those names tell very little about the purpose and responsibility they represent. I most often use decision model and presentation (or event view-) model, which describe their purpose more clearly.

There may be periods without coding, but having it as the norm would be a red flag in terms of team health. If a company has this as a norm, it would be a red flag for the culture.

Frank de Jonge @frankdejonge.bsky.social · 28/11/2024

They do indeed, but it’s also one that’s deeply influenced by what their team does. If they don’t practice themselves, their experience becomes irrelevant, undermining their ability to manage the team.

110

Frank de Jonge @frankdejonge.bsky.social · 27/11/2024

This is an odd take. As if managers only refactor other people’s code. They can just contribute to the team’s goal, not a problem at all. Living the same problems as the team, in the code, IMO makes them more effective. No enterprise managers for me please.

I’ve been using the term Decision Model instead of Aggregate for a bit now and I like using it. Especially in situations where the audience isn’t “fluent in DDD”, it conveys more relevant context; purpose instead of a tactical detail. I wonder if we should rethink more jargon?

Frank de Jonge @frankdejonge.bsky.social · 20/11/2024

So far, it keeps on rolling in. It’s quite remarkable

I was talking to @frankdejonge.bsky.social yesterday on stream and now I'm seriously considering dropping the term "aggregate" from my event sourcing vocabulary in favor of "decision model". "Decision model" explains the purpose. "Aggregate" explains the method. Which do you prefer?

You’ll always get pushback if you do not follow the norm, regardless of the norm being helpful or valuable. I try to cultivate a culture of experimentation for these types of things, of which this is a nice one to try.
