I have only one question: does the author know anything about coding ABAP like it's a Z80? I wish that they'd addressed this.

yes, it is addressed in another repo https://github.com/oisee/zvdb

and another article about zvdb-abap from ~1.5 years ago.

  • My comment was a reaction to the fact that you called out your experience/wisdom on the topic no less than five distinct times in a short (otherwise great!) post.

    I would argue that by doing so, you made it the unintended central theme of the post.

    I'm not saying this to hurt your feelings. That you didn't perceive the obvious sarcasm in my late-night comment suggests that you might not want to be perceived as pompous in your writing style.

    My suggestion is that one explicit "I'm an expert" reminder per post is a perfectly good number.

    • oh!, now I got it =) will increase "Shy" parameter and decrease "Braggart" parameters in my "Normal speech" to "LinkedInese" translator +)

      Thank you for feedback =)

      (I was thinking that it is not MY wisdom i am talking, but about "Z80" wisdom - all the code I have seen on demoscene and e-zines.)

    • oh, I was trying to understand what are you talking about, where this impression is coming from, and then realised, that the "article" md on github was out of sync with other versions. tnx!
