I took a week off from Dev.to. Not a planned one β I just sat down last Sunday and realized I had nothing left.
Eighteen stories into a 36-story s...

Congratulations on reaching this amazing milestone and building such a strong community of 9K+ followers! π Your 36 Stratagems series shows how powerful storytelling can make ancient wisdom feel relevant today. Excited for the next 18 stories!
It's actually 13K+, but hey, probably half of them are bots anyway π Working on the next 18 as we speak. Let's go πͺ
9k+ is also considered 13k, right?
Math genius! π€£
Mathematically proven
Let 9k + x = 13k
So, x = 13k β 9k = 4k
Therefore, 9k + 4k = 13k β
Hence, if the β+β has a 4k upgrade installed, 9k magically becomes 13k
Q.E.D. (Quite Easily Done)
I hereby declare you the winner of this year's Nobel Prize in Mathematics! ππ
55 articles, 13,560 followers, 15,858 views, 1,791 reactions, and 961 comments, thatβs an amazing achievement in such a short time. Congratulations!! π
Iβm not reading the stories as fast as youβre writing them, but at least I donβt have to wait for each new part. π Itβs the same with TV series, I usually wait until the whole season is available before I start watching. π
Think of it like a TV series β Season 1 (first 18 stratagems) is out and ready to binge. Season 2 just dropped its first episode. Catch up while you can π
Every developer deserves an AI that does more than generate code. It finds bugs, explains issues, and helps you ship faster.
Thanks! Good luck with BugDetectAI π
Use AI to help, and you also should one word by one word to check, it is not a easy work too. I hate this.
Haha, yeah β but I'm a QA myself, so this kind of repetitive work is second nature at this point. Occupational hazard, I guess π
I could relate to the part about wondering why a quick post ends up getting more attention than something you've spent weeks or months working on.
I think finishing something you're proud of matters more in the long run. Looking forward to seeing how the rest of the series unfolds π
The next few stratagems are already in the works β edits and all. Stay tuned!
Yes, your rant was popular, it 'resonated', to use that word - but your 36 stratagems is unique, it's something that hasn't ever been done on dev.to (as far as I know) ! The rant was a nice intermezzo, and of course it's also cool to do something like that once in a while ...
Stratagem 19 is already in the works π₯ First post of the second half has to be solid β my QA OCD is kicking in hard π
Your narrative style is truly captivatingοΌLook forward to your next 18 stories
Stratagem #19 is out, #20 is on its way. Looking forward to your brilliant comments! π
