Senior Developer'ların Bile Kaçırdığı Yazılım Geliştirme Sırları!

Yazılım geliştirme dünyası sürekli evrim geçiren, yeniliklerin hiç durmadan ortaya çıktığı dinamik bir alan. Senior geliştiriciler bile bazen günlük iş akışlarında belirli püf noktalarını gözden kaçırabiliyor. İşte deneyimli yazılımcıların bile farkına varmadığı, yazılım geliştirme sürecini çok daha etkili ve verimli hale getirecek bazı kritik sırlar! Kahramanmaraş yazılım sektörü için bu stratejiler büyük fark yaratabilir.

1. Kod Okunabilirliği Performanstan Daha Önemlidir

Çoğu deneyimli geliştirici performansa takıntılı olabilir. Ancak, optimize edilmemiş bir kod, okunabilir olduğu sürece bakım açısından daha değerlidir. Büyük ölçekli projelerde, diğer ekip üyelerinin hızlıca kavrayabileceği, açıklayıcı ve düzenli bir kod yazmak uzun vadede projeye çok daha fazla katkı sağlar.

Ne Yapmalısınız?

Değişken ve fonksiyon isimlerini açık ve anlaşılır yapın.

Gereksiz optimizasyonlardan kaçının, kodunuzu erken optimize etmeye çalışmayın.

Kod yorumlarını gereksiz yere abartmayın, temiz kod kendini anlatır.

2. Tekrar Eden Kod (DRY İlkesi) En Büyük Düşmanınızdır

"Don’t Repeat Yourself" (DRY) ilkesi, modern yazılım geliştirmede en kritik konulardan biridir. Senior geliştiriciler bile bazen kod tekrarını gözden kaçırabilir ve projeleri sürdürülemez hale getirebilir.

Nasıl Önlenir?

Kod tekrarını azaltmak için fonksiyonlar ve modüller oluşturun.

Ortak işlevleri soyutlayarak bağımsız bileşenler haline getirin.

Kod paylaşımı için merkezi kütüphaneler oluşturun.

3. Verimli Loglama Sanattır

Hataları ayıklarken logların doğru kullanımı büyük fark yaratır. Ancak, birçok deneyimli geliştirici bile ya gereksiz loglama yapar ya da yetersiz log tutar.

Daha İyi Loglama İçin:

Log seviyelerini iyi belirleyin (INFO, DEBUG, ERROR, CRITICAL gibi).

Gereksiz loglarla sistemi şişirmeyin, sadece anlamlı loglar bırakın.

Hata loglarına mümkünse işlem detaylarını ekleyin.

4. Karmaşık Kod Yazmak Seni Daha İyi Bir Yazılımcı Yapmaz

Birçok deneyimli yazılımcı, karmaşık algoritmalar ve tasarım kalıpları kullanarak yeteneklerini göstermek isteyebilir. Ancak, en iyi kod, en basit ve anlaşılır olanıdır.

Bunu Sağlamak İçin:

Gereksiz kompleks yapılar yerine basit çözümler tercih edin.

"Kodu kim okursa hemen anlayabilir mi?" sorusunu kendinize sorun.

Clean Code prensiplerini uygulayın.

5. Test Yazmadan Yapılan Geliştirme, Mayın Tarlasında Yürümek Gibidir

Birçok senior geliştirici, test yazmaya yeterince önem vermez ve zaman kaybı olarak görür. Ancak, testler hem hata yakalama hem de uzun vadede bakım süresini azaltma açısından kritik bir rol oynar.

Test Kültürünü Güçlendirmek İçin:

Birim testlerini (Unit Tests) düzenli olarak yazın.

Otomatik entegrasyon testlerini süreçlerinize dahil edin.

"Test edilemeyen kod, çalışmayan koddur" anlayışını benimseyin.

6. Kod İncelemelerini (Code Review) Hafife Almayın

Senior geliştiriciler bile bazen kod inceleme süreçlerini yüzeysel geçebilir. Ancak, kod incelemesi sadece hataları bulmak için değil, aynı zamanda ekip içinde bilgi paylaşımını artırmak için de kritik bir süreçtir.

Etkili Kod İncelemesi İçin:

Yorum yaparken yapıcı olun, geliştiriciyi aşağılamayın.

Kodun sadece çalışıp çalışmadığını değil, geliştirilebilir olup olmadığını da değerlendirin.

Küçük değişiklikleri bile gözden geçirin, küçük hatalar büyük problemlere yol açabilir.

7. Bağımlılıklara Körü Körüne Güvenmeyin

Modern yazılım geliştirme süreçlerinde kütüphaneler ve framework'ler büyük kolaylık sağlar. Ancak, bunlara aşırı bağımlı olmak projenizi kırılgan hale getirebilir.

Bunu Önlemek İçin:

Kütüphaneleri ve bağımlılıkları minimumda tutun.

Kullanılan kütüphanelerin bakım durumunu kontrol edin.

Önemli iş mantıklarını üçüncü taraf bağımlılıklara bırakmadan kendiniz de geliştirin.

8. Yazılım Geliştirme Sadece Kod Yazmaktan İbaret Değildir

Senior geliştiriciler bile bazen sadece teknik detaylara odaklanıp işin iletişim, planlama ve süreç yönetimi boyutunu ihmal edebilir. Ancak, başarılı bir yazılımcı olmanın yolu sadece iyi kod yazmak değil, ekip içinde etkin iletişim kurmaktan da geçer.

Daha İyi Bir Yazılımcı Olmak İçin:

Teknik olmayan becerilerinizi geliştirin (soft skills).

Takım arkadaşlarınızla düzenli iletişim kurun.

İş süreçlerini, müşteri beklentilerini ve büyük resmi anlamaya çalışın.

Sonuç

Senior geliştirici olmak, her şeyi bilmek anlamına gelmez. Yazılım geliştirme dünyası hızla değiştiği için sürekli öğrenmek ve gelişmek gereklidir. Unutmayın, en iyi yazılımcılar sadece teknik yetenekleriyle değil, aynı zamanda sürekli kendini geliştirme isteğiyle de fark yaratır.

Bu sırları hayatınıza entegre ettiğinizde hem bireysel olarak daha etkili bir yazılımcı olacak hem de içinde bulunduğunuz projelere daha fazla değer katacaksınız!

Feeling like putting down my find so here is

JV/Ant Davidson Timeline

(Can’t guarantee 100% accuracy on all info, can’t guarantee no bias no projection, not using there full names because guess what, so less info about them together if you google their names together my blog appears on the 1st page)

JV was raised in Switzerland. Did math and computer science in Switzerland. He found out he needed an engineer background to enter F1 so went back to England to get a master in that. Got to work at BAR(later Honda, Brawn, Merc) eventually. (He had a billion interview on him hustling his way to BAR but that’s not relevant to the story here)

Ant was raised in a middle class family. Went to Karting with brother and he was more interested and started to compete in Karting. He worked his way to Formula Ford and was lucky to get a sponsorship( the sponsor bought a house and let him lived there). His sponsor talked to him about career choice, at that time, test driver made a decent amount of money and that f1 seat seems a bit too distant. So Ant ended up in BAR around the same time as JV

Well JV was not that much of an engineering guy. His job going into Honda was a combination of some data analysis, coordination between departments and some engineer. There was no proper strategist job back in the days so he just bounced around. (The untold interview he said he was suppose to fix an electronic problem on the front wing, Evan Short ended up doing that. Not saying that he knew nothing but inferring from his other interview, he definitely needed help). (Even now strategist have “low” status in the team since only the principal strategist can go to the track and everyone back home’s job is make sure to feed enough info through TR that the principal’s eyes are always on track).

Meanwhile, Ant was doing amazing as a test driver, too amazing that Honda was reluctant to release him to do actual f1 racing. He missed a seat(which team I forgot) but Honda eventually agreed to let him race for Super Aguri in 2007. That team didn’t last.

Then came the Brawn year. Before 2009, JV and Ant were already starting to worry about their jobs and registered a company together. Company never took off because here comes Brawn GP.

After the championship, our champ Jenson was scheduled to do victory laps in the factory for the fans but he already buggered off to McLaren. Ant did the laps and JV was his engineer for that.

Then came the Merc years.

Ant was doing a bunch of different things then: racing in WEC, driving the Merc simulator and later became a sky sport host. Ant missed the chance of winning a championship(he also missed a podium due to bad luck in 2007) but he got one eventually. When Alonso returned to F1, Ant interviewed him asking if Alonso remembered them racing against each other in WEC, Alonso did not remember. Ant also did Jenson’s retirement interview. Ant also did some interview later saying he was too nice to be competing in this shark tank of f1, nice guy can’t win races.

JV was doing a bunch of different things in Merc as well. He was in charge of simulator, junior team, esport team and development data analysis software for premier league(honorable mention: he wrote the drivers code of conduct in 2016 to prevent Lewis and Nico fighting). Ant was a reliable simulator driver, JV was working a lot with Ant at that time(JV didn’t need to be present for the crowd strike thing but he was there…) (Also they Merc’s equipment to tune cars for their friend’s Karting league, naughty boys). I want to believe JV cares about drivers he works with, especially junior team (he went up to hug Esteban Ocon(Merc junior driver) after his 2021 Hungarian gp win(Merc strategy was a disaster that race)

Ant said JV is one of his best friends. He phoned JV a lot during the Honda and Brawn years. Ant also texted JV to ask for technical details when he started to comment for Sky( Ant joked in 2023 pre season test that JV is getting to busy with his TP job to reply to his texts). JV also bugged Ant for a VIP pass during Ant’s LeMans years. JV had spent time with Ant’s family doing barbecue for JV’s birthday. JV is Ant’s kids’ god father.

Projection time: Brawn and Merc years treated JV so well he probably is a bit idealist about things now. The stuff he said at Williams make sense if your work experience is a streak of championships. JV will probably never get a reality check so hard the way Ant exit F1(divorce? Idw). Knowing they are good friends make me happy.

Any katagawa hcs?

Random Katagawa Jr. Headcanons | 500-ish Words

content warning for substance abuse and vague allusions to self harm

does a little spin. hi anon. i have a physical written collection of katagawa headcanons. i have dedicated an entire notebook to this which is purely katagawa (at the moment) headcanons and notes i wish to keep track of. do not get me going.

23 at death

Just about shorter than Zer0.

Vegetarian, sometimes indulges in fish.

Actually cut his pinkies off to fit into the Zer0 suit

Covered in moles :3

Has impacted canines, still has braces as an adult, was in headgear as a child.

Prefers clothes made to be prudish, that are then altered to be revealing. (Cropped/sleeveless turtlenecks, pants with slits/holes/tears for example, idk, he dresses like a slutty steve jobs)

Very small appetite, prefers to snack throughout the day rather than eat a few big meals.

Prosthetic eye and port are self developed, modelling off Atlas prosthetic software/hardware. Implanted them first at 18.

Bar code tattoo was given at 16, when starting a proper corporate mentorship and actually beginning to contribute to Maliwan.

His combat training was mandatory from 13 onward; he struggled to find a field to go into, so becoming useful as a weapon was the compromise until he could contribute another way.

He stuck with it after finding his place within Maliwan because the regular exercise and rigorous routine kept him busy and gave him an out for his frustrations at home.

He's extremely insecure about his height, always feeling awkward over never fitting into spaces well.

Remedies the previous problem by training himself to be extremely flexible.

Struggles with substance abuse. Towards his later teens he started drinking with encouragement from his brothers, while he only began really messing with drugs after meeting Troy and being introduced to Eridium based offerings.

Addressing prior point, for a few of his BL3 appearances he's likely coming down or currently high. He was most definitely actively using during his fight, however.

He takes great pride in getting his hair styled and taking care of it once it's out of a pompadour. I like to headcanon him as having a fancier pomp with am elaborate back and a slight ducktail/mullet in the back too, but what do I know.

The Zanara is his only space that is truly his own that he has to himself, away from his family. He wasn't JUST being a big baby about not being able to take what he dishes out okay. Rhys blew up something very very important to his sanity.

He drools in his sleep more than Rhys does.

He has a couple tattoos under his suit and tie: a replica of Rhys' neck tattoo on his inner right forearm, matching katana tattoos with his brothers over his left pectoral, and a work in progress of a cat prowling down his right thigh. He died before he even got the colors started.

Most intelligence he actually possesses in any real capacity mostly surrounds technology. He loves to tinker and customize and mod, though it was rarely what was asked of him at home or at Maliwan, since he already had other siblings that were also good with tech. It was almost entirely a personal hobby inspired by Rhys.

His family nickname is Junior. Do not ever call him Junior his face will get so red it'll be so funny. uh. I mean Don't do that.

He holds so much tension at all times that you would think his muscles were his bones from how stiff and strained they always are.

[stephantom]

ok personal grievance time.

my company—my parent-company really, because they acquired us several years ago as part of an identity crisis driven strategy but never really integrated us meaningfully so we’ve continued to function independently like the dumb little startup we were—just fired my boss and it is the stupidest, most careless decision I’ve ever…

it’s like they took inspiration from DOGE. just widespread mass firings of people in management positions without any consideration for their actual roles and importance.

this guy was not just the manager of my 3-person-software team—he was our company’s sole sys admin, our software architect, our database manager, our server manager, our go-to general IT person. none of us know how to do half the shit he does, or even what it is. what the FUCK are we going to do without him.

it is now just me and the QA guy and the 20-something junior developer we hired last year to replace our old head developer who quit, and we are going to just limp on for as long as we can, I guess, but literally what the fuck

… and my partner is suddenly back in the office full time for HIS job (because DOGE) when he’d previously been at home, and we just had this baby thinking we knew what our lives looked like and what our jobs looked like but yeah idk I am very checked out at work rn bc. baby. etc. uhh but if I don’t figure out how to suddenly do all these new responsibilities, our app will just stop functioning and our whole company will just be completely screwed.

and our boss is training us (purely because he’s just a good guy) and making sure we have access to various things and adding documentation but it’s so much and some of these platforms are eol in like 2 years and we’ll have to reconfigure everything somehow ahhh fuck

anyway.

I really can’t get over how unbelievably stupid it was to fire him. I would’ve said he was one of 3, maybe 4 people that this company literally couldn’t function without. And they just. Lol.

■ About the Game

“You have been cursed.” Lens is a horror adventure game in which the protagonist, afflicted by a mysterious “curse,” must uncover its origins in order to survive. A series of unexplained disappearances in S City; strange messages and videos; a camera app capable of capturing spirits; and signs of a curse that only you can see… After being cursed by a seemingly trivial incident, the protagonist investigates haunted locations that may hold clues, inching closer to the terrifying truth behind the curse gradually consuming them.

■ Story

Hayato Tsukumo, a writer for the occult magazine Aghastia, hears an intriguing rumor during his daily reporting: people are mysteriously disappearing one after another in S City. What the missing individuals have in common is that they had all visited haunted locations—and received strange messages on their smartphones. Though intrigued, Tsukumo is in the middle of covering another story. But then, he too receives a mysterious message and video on his phone. Unable to resist his curiosity, Tsukumo watches the video—and suddenly, a bloodstained camera app installs itself on his phone. Then comes a chilling new message. “You have been cursed.” A woman’s voice whispers suddenly in his ear… “Find… my… precious…” And then, Tsukumo loses consciousness. Since that nightmare, Tsukumo’s daily life has been completely upended. Black marks only he can see begin to appear, and his physical condition worsens by the day. He can feel the curse slowly draining his life away each day… But he refuses to stand around, waiting to die. He resolves to break the curse—and survive! Determined to thoroughly investigate the rumors behind the disappearances, Tsukumo begins to uncover the horrifying truth hidden within the curse…

■ Characters

Tsukumo Hayato

A writer for the occult magazine Aghastia and the protagonist of this story. Lately, he has been enthusiastically covering urban legends and rumors in an effort to compete with a rapidly rising rival magazine—but ends up getting cursed himself.

The Unisys Icon: One Canadian Xennial's Memories of Ontario's Obscure Computer

One topic that often comes up in retro gaming circles is how aspects of gaming history not part of the American story don't get enough attention. I personally feel it's mostly up to the people to whom the stories belong to tell them. So I am going to follow my own advice today and tell the tale of a computer that statistically speaking almost no one has used, and some of that computer's software. I have to tell this story from memory, because this computer and its software functionally no longer exist. Practically no photographs of any of its games exist. We're relying on decades-old recall here, so… I'll do my best.

The Unisys ICON was a computer developed as an initiative by the Ontario Ministry of Education to create a standard for Ontario schools. It used an Intel 80186 CPU and its OS was an early version of a Unix-like system that eventually came to be known as QNX. Yes, the Blackberry one. Still in use, I believe. Each Unisys ICON came with its own monitor and a very robust keyboard with a trackball embedded in it. Computers ran in a network from a designated server machine. They were pretty expensive and the whole program was quite controversial, with many considering it a colossal waste of tax money. I mean, in hindsight… probably?

The first line of ICONs were introduced to schools in Ontario in 1984, and support for the platform continued until 1994. During that time, several models were created along with a fair bit of bespoke software. Most of it was meant to be educational, used for teaching programming to older kids and more general lessons to younger ones. I don't recall any pure games without any educational component, although some of them really danced on that line. When the ICON program was canceled in 1994, the Archives of Ontario declined to preserve the ICON and its software. They were all ordered to be destroyed, and just about all of them were.

Only a few fully working models are known to be in existence today, and some of the software was just straight-up lost forever. No emulators exist, and there is no way to play any ICON software unless you have access to one of those few remaining units. So yes, all my UK friends out there? I know you dislike it when Americans make jokes about your Spectrum and Amiga computers and games, but you can only joke about something if you've heard about it. No one jokes about the ICON. I mean, until they find out about its nickname, "The Bionic Beaver". That's easy pickins.

My elementary school in a small Northwestern Ontario town had about a hundred students total from Junior Kindergarten to Grade 6. It was such a small school, we didn't even have a Grade 5 class and teacher. They just divided the Grade 5 students by academic achievement and stuck the higher achievers in the Grade 6 class and the lower ones stayed in the Grade 4 class with slightly more difficult texts and homework. Anyway, it was a small school. It no longer exists. But in the 1980s, we had a couple of Apple II computers. They were pretty old by then, and the green and black monitors didn't impress kids who had tasted the Commodore 64, Tandy, or NES. But hey, we played Oregon Trail, Carmen Sandiego, and Crosscountry Canada on them when we could.

I remember when we got our ICONs. It was a pretty big deal! Our school received four of them, with one designated as the server. They were put in a prime location in the hallway, between the fourth grade classroom and the school entrance. If a person was going to the auditorium, they'd have to pass by them. Not like those Apple IIs, tucked away in a less traveled part of the hallways. Our school was proud of those ICONs, and the student body was excited to use them. One of the fun things about visiting the junior high school was that it had a whole lab of ICONs, with different games. Pure decadence! Absolutely sick!

Anyway, the memories of Xennials from Ontario are by and large all that remains of these things now. Even the Wikipedia entry's list of software is missing games I know I played on there. So what can you do? I'm going to talk about some of the games I remember, and since literally no screenshots exist, I drew some pictures. Quickly, mind you. And from 35+ year old memories, no less. Sorry, it's all I've got.

(Not actual screenshots)

SpectICON: This was a paint program, and when our ICON computers were turned on this is what they defaulted to. When the program loaded up, it had a colorful picture of a tree in autumn in place. You could change the palette using the trackball, and if you rolled it with some power the colors of the tree would wildly alternate. My friend Peter dubbed this "Disco Tree". It could do some simple animation, mostly by morphing between two images. I used this to make an animation of a robot turning into a car, because I was ten years old in 1989 and Transformers was the thing.

Offshore Fishing: One of the more popular games in my school. You would move your boat to different locations on a map, after which it would switch to a side-view. You then used the trackball to maneuver your fishing net, trying to catch as much as you can. If a shark comes, it will break your net and you'll lose a lot of money. This was supposed to teach us about the fishing industry, I think?

Math Maze: Another popular one in my school. You would make your way through a maze, battling monsters and looking for treasures. You could pick a knight or a wizard, and your choice of weapon between a sword and a wand. Knight with wand was splendid. No effect on the gameplay, of course. When you met a monster or found a treasure, it was time to do MATH. The last boss of the dungeon would ask what weighed more, a pound of feathers or a pound of gold. We were very proud when we sorted out the answer to that one. The cut-out box at the side showing a close-up of the action had some interesting visuals, at least.

A Day in the Life Of: We didn't have this one at my school, but the junior high school had it and I played it there. A strange game where you played as a student, and you could just straight up cut school and go to the mall if you wanted to. The mall had some different spots to visit, including an arcade where you could play a minigames called Mutant Bunnies Attack or something. It was basically Activision's Kaboom, and since we had a trackball… well, this was a pretty good time. I don't remember the actual point of this one.

Crosscountry Canada & Lemonade Stand: You might know these games from other platforms. They were ported to the ICON and played pretty much the same way here as anywhere else. Both were old hat for us and didn't get much play as a result.

Greenhouse: A gardening game. You had to grow plants by setting a variety of conditions, including temperature, watering, and sunlight. Each plant had different needs, but if you could sort it out you would be rewarded by seeing them grow. I messed around with this one a bit, but it was on the junior high school computers so I didn't get to play it as much as I would have liked.

Robot R&D: Robots! This was a cool one. You would build a robot from different parts and materials. You could then put them through a variety of tests to see how they would react. You could immerse them in water, try to crush them, or just drop them from high places. For most kids, you had them at "build a robot".

There were lots of other games, but these were the ones I played and the ones I remember. I wish I could tell you about all of them, but this is the limit of my knowledge. Maybe someone else out there can remember other ones and talk about them? I hope that one day this off-beat, highly geographically and temporally localized computer is properly archived and its software is made accessible again. I would like to play Offshore Fishing at least one more time in my life. Thanks for reading!

Extra Note: I just remembered the darned things would say HELLO when you booted them up. A talking computer?!

[minmin-vs-physics]

Hey! I’m gonna be a physics major next year, and I was wondering if the Mac and iPad combo have worked well for you, or if there’s something else you recommend tech wise?

short answer: yes.

but, im gonna use this has an opportunity to yap about my current study set up. this goes without saying, but what worked for me may not work for you, and my set up evolved over the years as i found what was best for me.

i use an iPad for lecture notes and homework. i think its the most organized you can get them to be without straight up LaTeXing the shit out of them (and i know people who do exactly that, more power to them)

i just write faster than i type, and an ipad allows me to copy paste equations and add photos and stuff which is helpful for diagrams. i use goodnotes 5, and i will sing its praises till the end of time.

i think it pays to develop a clear style for your homework and lecture notes, bc your work will be easier to navigate. here's an example of my lecture notes and my homework.

[hehe general relativity moment]

HOWEVER, you will mostly be having paper exams as a physics student so i recommend you don't get too reliant on your iPad. i tend to do all my studying in notebooks, or loose sheets that i can refer to. practice problems are always on paper.

[stat mech studying i did last week]

i started using legal pads for this from the end of junior year bc they're so convenient! im also incentivized by the stock our dept keeps in the mail room.

i have to do a lot of calculations for research and i prefer to do them on paper or a blackboard if it's something im reasoning out. idk it's so much easier to be stupid on paper than on goodnotes. ofc my research log is kept digitally, but i keep a binder with all my old calculations (both correct, and incorrect) along with my main reference papers.

[i was flipping through this just now and realised how much bs is in it.]

LaTeX is a good skill to have which i didn't realise until too late. if you have to write any paper that's remotely scientific, LaTeX is the way to go. none of that google docs bs.

i use both vscode and Overleaf for editing. i mainly just LaTeX my finalized research calculations into one big doc. it's much easier to show my advisor. also it looks cool.

i got a monitor when my laptop screen broke sophomore spring (something inside me broke as well that semester it was so fun). and if you have the option, i would totally recommend getting one. it's useful having a second/bigger screen.

i use mine for a bunch of things: coding, reading textbooks, genshin impact, Netflix, grading.

on the topic of textbooks, i use digital bc im cheap. but i do buy secondhand physical copies that i rarely reference, but keep around bc it doesn't hurt to start your hypothetical professor office bookshelf early. i only buy the ones i actually respect, like Peskin's Intro to QFT. but the digital copies are usually much handier. i keep an extensive digital collection of books and papers i might never need.

don't be like me keep your digital library more organized!

and yeah circling back to electronics! i use a Macbook Pro rn which has served me well. i guess things are different if you need to run solidworks or other specialized software, but you can always use the lab computers, so that was never a problem. i have an apple ecosystem bc im a slut for capitalism.. i mean i was already halfway there and now im just really used to it, so i like all my devices being friends with each other. my tip is always get more RAM than you thought you needed, and double the storage. but maybe that's bc im mean to my laptop and love hoarding files.

i also keep all my previous notes and printouts so may be i have an academic hoarding problem in general.

in the end, a mix of old school and new age technology bs works best for me!

thank you for your question! i hope this helps :)

Late 2001. Oulu, Finland. Olympus Trip Junior, Fuji Superia 100 (?) film.

Aside of photography, I'm a software developer, and I'm in process of rewriting my photo import software. I'm drinking instant coffee and may have surpassed this previous record of sustained caffeination, to be perfectly honest.

Trafalgar Law x dragon!male!reader

A/n: this is probs a modern au with a slight fantasy in it btw (I know y'all didn't even ask but here it is) (also tagging @lawomi bc of their mink x Law fic.) (also pretty damn long)

My masterlist

Warnings: mpreg, birth process, ridiculous smut.

Dragons have always lived with humans. But due to controversy in ancient literatures, depicting dragons as vile, greedy creatures, they were always looked down upon.

Trafalgar Law didn't care or buy that bullshit, maybe when he was a kid, sure, but his parents were open minded about such things. They believed in giving people or other creatures a chance to prove themselves.

Law used to roll his eyes at this until at his highschool days when he had a dragon classmate.

His classmate was tall and well built, looked mature for his age, but oddly looked human (other than the fact that his classmate had four arms).

Law guessed it was his "human form" so that he could "blend in" with the other classmates.

(Y/n) was the guy's name. Odd, but okay.

The man displayed remarkable intelligence, yet was held back simply because he was a dragon. Teachers and administrators never believed this dragon was independent so they'd always question him about it, i.e riling him up until the dragon was violent and call whatever authority it is in the school

Law thinks that was cruel. Really, it is. (Y/n) just sits to himself most time, wearing anything and everything to hide himself from the world.

They didn't really interact much until he almost got mugged in an alleyway he uses as a shortcut to his house. (Y/n) stepped in and grabbed Law by the collar of his shirt and flew off just as fast. But in no time, Law was put down right outside his house with (y/n) quietly standing beside him.

The man was towering over Law, it was hard not to feel intimidated. Especially since he had scales on the skin of his cheek, his pupils were slits like a true dragon. But all (y/n) did was gesture for Law to go in and left just as quietly.

That was also the moment Law felt a small... Epiphany.

From a far, (y/n) always seemed so... Scary. Real scary. But up close, scarier.

Since that day, Law made it a point to at least speak to his classmate even if it's just one sentence like: "excuse me" or "thank you".

(Y/n) never really responded and just stared before walking away.

It was weird, but the junior graduation was coming up, (y/n) shyly asked Law out.

It was weird seeking a scary dragon act so meek and shy that Law can't help but laugh (he accepted it anyway).

Through out the seniors, (y/n) made it his mission to cling unto Law as much as possible. Law actually didn't mind because at least then, he gets "scary dog privileges".

Their story continues with Law introducing (y/n) to his parents (they loved him), and (y/n) to his (they also loved Law).

After 5 years of them dating, they (coincidentally) proposed to each other at the same time.

With back story out of the way, (y/n) was now working as a software developer while Law was a doctor. They're married now and have a 3 bedroom house.

It "wasn't much" according to them but hey, they're happy with it.

They were currently cuddling on the couch, watching Law's favourite movie.

"Have you ever thought of children?" Law asked sheepishly as (y/n) looked at him.

"Children... I do, but do you? We can adopt." (Y/n) shrugged briefly as his gaze was focused on Law.

"I see... Is it weird I want them someday?" Law chuckled making (y/n) shake his head and lean down to kiss him.

"Of course not. So... Adoption?"

"I'll think about it, love." Law smiled softly

Later...

Law was reading a book on their bed as (y/n) comes in with a proud look and his hands behind his back, "guess what"

"What?" Law was amused as (y/n) sat down.

He revealed a plush toy of a Pokémon Law absolutely loved. It's size was as big as the other's torso making it huggable and squeezable. "So that you wouldn't feel lonely in the hospital."

Law gasped and grabbed it while turning it in many different ways, observing the great details.

"Thank you!" Law yelled as he tackled (y/n) with a big hug.

"Oof-" (y/n) huffed before smiling so softly and hugging the other back tightly.

"I love it..."

"I knew you would."

Out of nowhere, Law's phone started ringing as he grabbed the phone and sat on (y/n)'s lap. "Hello?"

Law nodded a few times before humming softly, "I see... I'll be there in 30." He said before hanging up.

"Emergency?" (Y/n) said as Law got up and got ready.

"Yeah... There was a serious accident on the main road. A bus had toppled over. Around 20 passengers inside"

"That's horrible... Do everything you can, alright? Stay safe." (Y/n) nods as Law grabbed the plush.

"So that I wouldn't feel lonely" he winked making (y/n) roll his eyes with a chuckle.

Law then returned at the wee hours of the morning, luckily, he was on a day off that day, and so was (y/n). The stars really were lining up somehow.

He took a quick bath and changed into some night wear and laid on the bed beside (y/n) who felt him immediately and turned over just to grab Law and wrap his big arms around him with his tail wrapping around his waist and a wing to shield him completely.

"I missed you" (y/n) tiredly said with a smile.

"I missed you too" Law smiled at his clingy dragon hubby as he kissed his forehead, "let's go back to sleep, yes?"

"Yes."

They soon woke up around 8, well, Law did.

He could feel a specific... Shape... Was protruding from his lower back as (y/n) has his head tucked into the other's neck, still snoring just as cutely.

"(Y/n)... My love..." Law smiled as he rubbed the side of the other's face as he slowly stirred awake.

"What... Huh...?"

"Morning wood?" Law chuckled

"No... It's mating season."

Law could feel his face heat up, "a-already?!"

"Time sure past by quite quickly... But I won't do anything you don't want me too..." (Y/n) muttered, still cuddling him.

"I'm surprised you can restrain yourself... Most creatures can't, you know?" Law turned around to face (y/n) and cup his cheeks.

"Dragons are disciplined creatures."

"Damn right." Law smiled as he kissed (y/n) passionately, "but what if i want you to rail me?"

"Do you? I can make that happen"

"Maybe later... For now, I'm hungry." Law chuckled as (y/n) sat up, despite the blankets still covering his lower half, his hard on was still visible (and how thick it was).

Law could only bite his lip in anticipation because he knows he'll eat that dragon sized d- later.

The day was normal as usual, cuddling, food trips, more cuddling, binging, in depth discussions about fictional shows, and many more.

This was Law's safe space, his own home. And (y/n) is his home.

But when the night time eventually came around, Law still remember the promise he made so he sat on the bed, waiting for (y/n) to come in. In which he did after closing all the doors and windows downstairs.

"Hm? Hey love." (Y/n) smiled as he walked over their big bed to accommodate his growing size.

*You said you'd do it~" Law chuckled when (y/n)'s eyes suddenly went dark with desire and basically tackle him to the bed.

Law's favourite season was spring (mating season), for obvious reasons.

Law can't help but laugh and moan at the same time as (y/n) tore off his clothes.

"Hey...!"

"I'll spoil you next time, I promise." (Y/n) said as he licked up Law's nipple and carefully nibbling it to prevent it from hurting him as he gasped and moaned softly.

It wasn't too long when (y/n) started to finger Law's ass with his thick and long fingers while jacking him off.

"(Y/n)- ah-...!" Law came with a moan as soon as (y/n) added his third finger inside him just to stretch him up as he came all over himself.

Once he was stretched enough, (y/n) made a show of licking Law's cum from his own body all while taking off his clothing.

They were both naked now as Law stared at his husband's large member, "god... It seems like you keep growing" he said, biting his lip

(Y/n) chuckled as he positioned himself at the now loose hole, "you ready?"

"Yes..."

(Y/n) nods and slowly pushed himself in.

Law gasped at the big stretch, his abdomen eventually swelled up to his shape being slid inside until it was all in.

He can't help but gasp for air at how "stuffed" he feels right now.

(Y/n) eventually started to thrust slowly, Law gripped (y/n) as his nails leave marks on the other's back. Law moaned loudly before being muffled by a kiss as (y/n) thrusted deep inside him over and over.

Law, after a while, came with a loud moan and his back arching.

(Y/n) can't hold it anymore and came deep inside Law. It was... Kind of a mistake because then it'd mean his egg would plant itself inside Law.

The next morning...

Law felt so sore from last night but that was the best night ever. He still feels somewhat "stuffed" but this happened before, (y/n) came so much some of his cum must've still been stuck inside.

He yawned softly before feeling (y/n) starting to wake up

"Law...? How're you feeling...?" (Y/n) asked as he wrapped his arms around him.

"A bit sore... But somehow, still full...?"

"Hm... I can help with the soreness," (y/n) hummed softly as he sat up, "where does it hurt?"

Law smiled at him, "everywhere."

The other chuckled before leaning down and licking his skin.

Dragons actually aren't researched that much but if people were to find out the dragon saliva had healing properties, they'd abuse the fuck out of them.

Law can't help but squirm slightly and scoff a bit.

"All done. I think I know what to do about your 'fullness'? Just hold on." He said as he dug his fingers inside the other's ass.

Law gasped and moaned as (y/n) searched for the source of his fullness, eventually feeling them pull it out with a "pop".

He sat up as (y/n) hands him a warm egg. "What-"

"Yeah, I don't know what happened either." (Y/n) shook his head as he laid back down with his hands under his head.

"An... Egg... Is this-"

"Yes."

"How-"

"I don't know."

"Would this... Egg... Still live?"

"No. An egg grows inside a person for 2 months, then they come out and grow on their own for the next 7 months."

*Can I even...?"

"Yes you can." (Y/n) smiled, "but I don't want you to order yourself to do anything."

"Is it odd that... I want to do it?"

"Do what?"

"This..." Law was refering to the egg, "but then..."

"Your bodily functions will 'stop' momentarily to accommodate this. Like how women stop getting their period when they get pregnant." (Y/n) shrugged, "it'll be fine."

Law seemed to think it over really deeply. "Can you... Put it back in...? I... You know... Want to."

(Y/n) looked at him and scanned his gaze for any hesitation, when he didn't find any, he stood up and kissed Law. "Alright. Hold on."

He gently grabbed the egg and slowly pushed it back in making Law gasp softly as he felt the egg slowly being pushed back to where it was before.

"Fair reminder, it will take root in a couple of days. And your tummy will probably grow like a pregnant woman." (Y/n) smiled at the thought of it before turning to look at Law's eyes, "... You should take a break from the hospital... I don't mean to sound insensitive but... If you have to quit, do it. I'm a software developer, I can support both of us."

Law seemed to weigh his options before holding out his hand and cupping (y/n)'s face. "I'll try my best."

The both softly laughed and shared a kiss, "well... Let's get some breakfast, I'll make bacon and eggs"

"Isn't it my turn to cook today?" Law chuckled

"Aren't you 'pregnant'?"

"Fair."

For the next few days, Law has never seen (y/n) so protective as he is now. Monitoring his health, giving him the right vitamins, feeding him all sorts of foods that he somewhat craves, and even going as far as doing all the housework because to (y/n), pregnancies are sensitive.

Which is true in some sense but, Law can't complain.

"Here, love. I made you a nest." (Y/n) grinned up at Law as his stomach was now big like a mother carrying a five month old.

"What is that for?" He asks as he laid down on it. It was now his favourite spot, pregnant or not.

"So that you'd feel comfortable when you give birth." (Y/n) smiled as he kissed Law's forehead. "Now feel comfortable while I build the rest of this nursery."

Law looked around and noticed the walls were painted nicely with children's art by hand, a few commodities for the baby, and he was currently building a large crib.

"Are you sure you don't need help?"

"No, just relax, my love."

Law shrugged before starting to doze off for a bit.

Another few days past and the nursery was all done.

Law now sat on his nest that he funnily called a "throne", his belly looked 9 months pregnant at this point.

"You should get ready to push anytime now." (Y/n) said as he kneeled down beside him, rubbing his belly.

Law nods as he looked at his belly, "I was feeling a bit... Off, today..." He then looked up at (y/n), "how long do I like... You know..."

"Like human birth. Well, maybe not exactly like it but it depends." (Y/n) smiled softly, "and what do you mean 'off'? Can you explain it in detail?"

Law thinks for a moment before replying "It's... I don't know... My stomach feels heavier... I've been having this...pressure down there for a couple days now..."

(Y/n) looked at him, "get ready." He stood up

Law gave him a surprised and slightly worried look. He carefully pushed himself off the "throne" and sat up properly, "Get ready for what? Is it... Right now???"

"Stay there." (Y/n) as he carefully push Law back down on his 'throne', "I'll get everything ready, just... Get yourself ready whether physically or mentally... I'll be here, my love." He kissed the other's forehead as he left momentarily.

Law could feel the pressure bit the though of having children makes him smile and relax comfortably.

"Alright." (Y/n) came back with a few stuff, "Water, for after you "give birth". A towel for me to clean you with. Pain killers if you need them. And a basin of warm water for the egg to clean it with." (Y/n) Said as he placed the ones Law needed beside him and within reach as (y/n) rolled up his sleeves and position himself in front of the other. "Tell me when you feel it"

"Alright." Law smiled as he gripped one of (y/n)'s hands he gracefully offered, "I-i think I feel it."

"Alright..." (Y/n) took off Law's bottoms for a bit. "Tell me if it hurts so much you think you can't take it, alright? I'll relieve you with some momentary magic." (Y/n) Said as his left hand summoned a mist and he placed that hand on Law's belly, "You ready?"

Despite feeling nervous, Law nodded and gripped his hand as the pain kicked in. "I- I'm ready..."

"Speak to me, okay?"

"I will..."

(Y/n) nods as he took a breath in and steeled himself.

After a gruesome 8 hours of pushing, the egg is finally out. (Y/n) placed the freshly laid egg in the basin with warm water as he clean Law up and wipe away tears and sweat from his face. "Here, have some water."

Law, exhausted and still hurting, sighed and leaned back. "It... It's alright... Right?" He asked tiredly before taking a sip of the water.

"Yes... It's fine. You should rest, I'll make dinner shortly, my love." (Y/n) smiled softly as he kissed the other's cheek, cleaned the warm egg up, and placed it inside the crib. Surrounding it with blankets to keep it warm and steady.

Law smiled before feeling himself rest for a bit.

A couple of months assed by like a blink of an eye. Law was wiping the egg up as it slowly cracked.

"Love! Come quick!" Law yelled into the hallway as (y/n) just finished making lunch.

(Y/n), with possibly the speed of a sports car, rushed up the stairs. Tripping himself in the process but that's bullshit to a dragon. Mere hits wouldn't even hurt them.

Law found himself fascinated as the egg, like any other, cracked itself open and twins were inside, a girl and a boy with the body of a human but had distinct dragon features.

The girl looked a lot like Law but has (y/n)'s eyes and small wings, while the boy is (y/n)'s looks and Law's eyes with what looked like a serpent's tail.

"Oh~ a wind and water dragon..." (Y/n) said excitedly.

"Dragons have types?" Law asked amusedly

"Yep. I'm a star dragon, one responsible for the stars in the sky." (Y/n) explains briefly, "... And dragons develop faster than humans, don't be so surprised if they could suddenly speak tomorrow or something."

Law nods, taking that note. "I see... Well, may I name them?"

"Of course. You gave "birth" to them, remember?"

"Don't remind me." Law chuckled, "the girl is Lila while the other is Levin... I think it'd fit them."

"Well, while you're getting to know them, I'll just "dragon proof" the whole house." (Y/n) smiled awkwardly.

"What does that mean?"

"Wings, she can fly, serpent's tail, he can control water."

"Oh."

After a few months, the twins grew older. Despite being a few months, they were able to speak almost fluently like a 3 year old and has learned how to use their given abilities without ever being taught.

(Y/n) pulled Lila down, "dear... You're flying too high" he says as he overrides Levin's power with water and pour it down the drain, making the boy huff in a small tantrum. "What have we talked about this, young man? Do not play with water inside the house."

"But papa!" Levin pouted

"No buts." (Y/n) lightly scolded as the child stomps his little feet.

All while stopping Lila from trying to unscrewing the lightbulb and lick the socket.

"Children. Listen to your father." Law chuckled as he came in with a tray of fruit snack he freshly chopped up.

"Daddy!" The two children immediately went to him enthusiastically.

"How come they listen to you?" (Y/n) chuckled and took the tray from him before placing it on the small table on the floor.

"I don't know, they just... Do." Law smiles and gives them both a kiss on the cheek as soon as he lifted them up to his arms.

"Daddy! Papa won't let Lila take the glowy thing!" She protested.

"Dear, it'll zap you." Law calmly explains as he sat down beside (y/n).

Lila merely pouted as she stuffed her face with grapes.

"Daddy! Papa won't let me play!" Levin scoffed as he quietly ate some watermelon.

"Honey, the water will soak up everything." Law explained again.

The two seemed to finally understand as they happily ate the fruits.

"This combination is what I hate... Levin being the more smarter one while Lila is the more convincing one... Be right back, love. I'll need to hide my spell books." (Y/n) got up after kissing Law's cheek.

It made the other laugh as (y/n) ran out of the room to hide anything and everything that had his spells written down.

It won't be too long that the children will learn dragon language and chant spells (like he did when he was much, MUCH younger than them)

Law can't help but look at everything and thanked the stars he gave (y/n) a chance. Like his parents wanted him to.

If, like everybody else, he judges the dragon so... Easily... He wouldn't have a loving husband and two naughty children.

It still makes him blush thinking about calling (y/n) his "husband", though.

Toonboom wants to put AI in their softwares

Toonboom has decided to open an AI Beta called Toonboom Ember. They have worked with Brai.ai to do so, as well as Google Gemini. Brai.ai is *generally* a more ethical AI company, as it only uses licensed work and therefore also has a lower ecological impact- although the exact C02 emissions are not known and to be honest any amount isn't enough to justify this for me personally. Google Gemini is being used to "automatically identify key scenes, characters and background assets" taking away part of the job a storyboard artist/script writer would be handling.

Brai.ai is backed by Venture capital firms including AWS (Amazon) as well as many others.

Ember is being developed to effectively remove "tedious/repetitive" work in the Animation industry. But in practice this work is something junior artists are *trained on*, and in order to get a job you need that training- if Toon Boom succeeded in what they are attempting the animation industry would lose many jobs and it would be even harder to break into without a letter from god. If you do not want this implemented, the most effective option is through installing the beta and leaving feedback. This has directly been said to be the prioritised form of feedback. Obviously this is impossible to do if you do not own something Toon Boom related.

For those concerned but who do not currently own any toon boom products, the public community discord is under the "join the community" tab of toon boom's website. For those who do venture into the Discord to leave feedback, do not direct your anger at the community managers- it is clear that at least one has his own views on AI.

Interestingly, Brai.ai does do text to image generation. although this is not *currently* being implemented into Toon Boom.

Until they remove AI I will not be renewing my subscriptions personally, I'd recommend others do the same.
