Bug and Code · Dev, Tech & Careers

Real tech. Real apps. Real prep for real interviews.

I don’t teach you “Hello World.” I break down what’s actually happening in tech, show you the apps I’m shipping, and help you talk like someone companies want to hire.

We’ll break down the latest AI headline and explain who should worry, who shouldn’t, and how to stay hireable.

Why I removed half the roadmap so I could actually launch, and what’s left in the MVP.

Answering “Tell Me About Yourself” Like a Real Developer

A simple structure you can reuse in every IT, dev, or hybrid interview without sounding like a script.

A balanced take on cloud vs on-prem skills for the next few years and how to not get blindsided.

Interview prep that sounds like a real human, not a LeetCode bot.

I’ve been on the side that’s hiring, firing, fixing broken systems at 2am, and shipping apps. I’ll help you talk about your skills like someone who can actually do the job.

🎙 Answer Frameworks

Plug-and-play structures for the most common questions:

  • “Tell me about yourself”
  • “Tell me about a time you solved a problem”
  • “Walk me through this system”

🧠 Realistic Scenarios

Sysadmin, dev, or hybrid roles—practice problems like:

  • “The site is down. What do you check first?”
  • “Production DB is slow. Talk through your approach.”

📁 Portfolio & Resume

Who’s behind Bug and Code?

I’m a solutions architect / IT manager / DevOps who spends my days fixing real systems and my nights building apps.

Bug and Code is where I combine all of that—tech news, devlogs, and interview prep— into something actually useful for devs and IT folks trying to level up.

If you want generic tutorials, you have a thousand other sites. If you want the unfiltered reality of building and working in tech, you’re in the right place.
