I think we can all agree that GPT (Generative Pre-trained Transformer) can be useful but also happily shows its flaws. Like all tools, it has its place in our toolbelt, so let’s learn a little more about GPT.
Sequelize ORM: Interacting with databases using Node
Today, we are going to be going over a very useful tool called Sequelize. It is an Object Relational Mapper (ORM), which allows us to interact with relational databases using Node.js.
Sequelize supports many different databases, but in this blog, we will be using MySQL. We will go over how to set up a local MySQL instance and a Node.js server using Sequelize to communicate with it.
Along the way, we’ll learn basic Sequelize functionally, such as the command line tool and migrations, to understand how to work with the database…

Temporal.IO and Workflows in Enterprise Applications
In every software application I’ve ever worked on, no matter the industry or maturity of the team or number of weeks in a sprint, there have been three questions that always come up: What is the best way to center a
?
? Should we use tabs or spaces? How should we implement complex workflows?
It was with that third question in mind that I stumbled upon a link in HackerNews a few weeks back on Temporal.io announcing that its .NET SDK is now in alpha.
If you aren’t in the know, Temporal is a library that lets you describe workflows as code. It’s available in multiple languages, but the Python flavor is the most popular.
So, I took a leap of faith, tried out the Temporal .NET SDK, and decided to recap my thoughts for you all as a blog. I’ll walk through, at a high level, what the Temporal approach is, the implications of workflows at the different zones of enterprise architecture, and where I see Temporal being useful in a large organization’s software strategy.
