GIT TAGGING YOUR BUILDS AUTOMATICALLY

I need to write a much longer post to explain my thoughts on ‘versioning’ and what constitutes a release with today’s trends of continuous integration, but for now, a simple tip.

LESSONS LEARNED FROM JAVA AND CLOJURE

A hard day

I learned the following lessons today:

Simplest is best
Evaluate your assumptions
Sometimes development is just hard

In a nutshell, our production app records UI errors and submits them to the server where they are pushed to the error-handler. Similarly, if an Exception is raised server side it is also pushed to the error-handler. However, the errors that had been captured were all ridiculously long stack traces with no references to any of my code.
