I don’t know about you, but if you are a developer and like to work with Ai (not just vibe coding), you need to subscribe to @denicmarko Newsletter…
Lemme say this again: YOU NEED to.
It’s full of gems and tips on js, css and so much more rich content.
Should I upgrade from iPhone 16Pro to iPhone 18 Pro?
What is the difference? I have watched some video in yt but still wondering…
What is your experience with iPhone 18 pro?
Building my code:
“Beautiful. Completely obvious.”
Reading my code six months later:
“I need to find whoever did this.”
🤭😂
Today’s successful coding session:
Lines added: 4
Lines deleted: 83
Beautiful. 😂
Sometimes the best feature is removing the thing that made everything unnecessarily complicated.
AI can give me 100 lines of code before I’ve finished explaining the problem.
Amazing.
Then comes the slower part:
Does it actually belong in this project? 🤦
I don’t try to memorize every JavaScript method anymore, never could to be honest.
I try to remember what JavaScript can do.
Syntax can be searched.
Understanding what to search for is the useful part.
Programming is:
- 20% writing code.
- 30% reading documentation.
- 50% staring at your code saying:
“But this SHOULD work.”
Debugging isn’t separate from programming.
It is programming.
A WordPress builder gets me the job done by 90%.
The remaining 10%:
CSS: “Move.”: “I got this.”
PHP: “I got this”.
JavaScript : “What are we breaking today?” 😂
WordPress + coding is a very useful combination, you revkon?

CSS tip:
Stop duplicating your CSS for Dark Mode.
The new `light-dark()` function lets you define both values in a single line.
It eliminates the need for redundant media queries and keeps your variables in one place.
The WordPress community in Bucharest is amazing
If you want to meet great people, talk WordPress, web, SEO, content and the challenges we all run into while building for the web, take a look at the Bucharest WordPress Meetup on August 27

Beginner CSS:
color: red;
Professional CSS:
“Why is this div 3 pixels wider only on Safari?”
I am not only into web development but also into patience development.
One more JavaScript tutorial and I’ll finally understand everything.
Narrator: he did not. 😂
Build → get stuck → search → fix → repeat.
That loop taught me more than endlessly watching tutorials.
