Welcome to the behind-the-scenes world of business software, where lines of code make all the difference between a snappy, efficient system and one that lags like a tortoise trudging through molasses. If you’ve ever found yourself drumming your fingers impatiently on your desk, waiting for a screen to load, you’ve experienced firsthand the frustration of slow software. But what causes these frustrating slowdowns? Let’s pull back the curtain on the mystery.

When it comes to software performance, not all systems are created equal. The speed and efficiency of a software system are heavily dependent on a number of factors, from the raw processing power of the server it’s running on, to the way data is stored and accessed, and crucially, to the efficiency of the code that underpins it all.

In the world of software, inefficient code is akin to a road filled with potholes and speed bumps, slowing everything down and making the journey far less smooth than it could be. This is why some systems can lag or slow down, often at the most inopportune times. But fear not, because there’s a hero in this story: efficient code, the secret ingredient to a swift and smooth software experience. Let’s dive deeper into what that means and how it’s the game-changer at Teesom.

The Importance of Efficient Code

Imagine you’re navigating a city with two maps. One is cluttered with unnecessary details, confusing detours, and out-of-date information. The other is streamlined, up-to-date, and gets you exactly where you need to go, the quickest way possible. That’s the difference between inefficient and efficient code.

Efficient code is like that streamlined map. It’s clean, concise, and well-organized. It performs the desired functions using the least amount of resources possible, including processing power and memory. It’s the result of thoughtful planning, good design, and meticulous implementation.

Why does it matter? Well, inefficient code is the root cause of many software performance issues. It can result in slower processing times, higher memory usage, and more strain on system resources. It’s like a traffic jam on your server, slowing down every action you try to perform.

Inefficient code can also lead to more bugs and system errors, as the complexity and disorganization of the code can make it harder to spot and fix problems. It’s akin to trying to find a needle in a haystack, and the larger and messier the haystack (i.e., the code), the harder it is to find the needle (i.e., the bug).

Conversely, efficient code is quicker to execute, less resource-intensive, and easier to maintain and debug. It results in software that’s faster, more reliable, and more enjoyable to use. And when it comes to code efficiency, Teesom has an ace up our sleeve. Let’s introduce you to Lincoln Waldick, our Head of Development, and his wizard-like abilities in code optimization.

Teesom’s Development Team: The Power Trio Behind the Screen

Meet the masterminds behind Teesom’s streamlined performance – our development team. This trio of tech wizards is dedicated to producing the most efficient code possible, ensuring Teesom’s software runs smoothly and swiftly for our users.

First up, we have Chris Waldick, co-founder and CEO of Teesom. Chris has been writing code since 1996, but his background is even more diverse than that. Before diving into the world of programming, Chris was deeply involved in selling accounting and business management solutions to the automotive and hotel industries. Moreover, he owned his own custom apparel business, where he operated M&R automatic equipment and handled everything from sweeping the floor to reclaiming screens, and from loading shirts at 80 dozen an hour to managing financials. This firsthand experience in the custom apparel industry runs in his veins and it’s part of what drives his passion for Teesom. Chris studied financial and marketing management, and his self-taught coding skills combined with his unique knowledge of accounting ensures Teesom is designed to be accounting-correct.

Next, we have the prodigious Lincoln Waldick, who followed in his father’s (Chris’s) footsteps, starting his coding journey at the tender age of 16. Now, at 25, Lincoln’s proficiency in both frontend and backend development is truly impressive. But what sets Lincoln apart is his unique talent for optimizing SQL queries and backend code. He’s not just proficient in it; he’s obsessed with it. Lincoln’s skills extend to front-end languages like HTML, CSS, and Javascript, but his mastery truly shines in .NET Core and C#.

Finally, we have Brendan Beukes, our front-end maestro. Brendan joined our team a year ago and has since been solely focusing on the front-end development of our new application, Merch It Now. Brendan’s skillset in front-end development ensures that the interface our users interact with is not just functional, but also intuitively designed and user-friendly.

These three individuals, each with their unique skills and experiences, come together to form Teesom’s formidable development team. Their commitment to efficient code is what gives Teesom its edge, ensuring our software is as quick and responsive as you need it to be. Their collective passion for the custom apparel industry, combined with their technical expertise, makes them an unstoppable force in crafting an efficient and effective business management software.

Spotlight on Lincoln Waldick: The Maestro of Code Optimization

Let’s take a moment to put the spotlight on a key player in our power trio – Lincoln Waldick. Co-founder of Teesom along with his dad, Chris, Lincoln currently helms our development team, steering the Teesom ship with his unique prowess in code optimization and SQL queries.

Lincoln’s journey in the world of coding began at a young age – 16, to be exact. It’s fair to say that he was born into it, with programming being part of family dinner table discussions. Now, at 25, his decade-long journey has seen him evolve into a truly proficient developer, one who can handle both the frontend and the backend with equal ease.

However, if we were to talk about Lincoln’s true forte, it’s code optimization. An artisan of backend code, Lincoln’s expertise lies in crafting SQL queries that are lean, clean, and super efficient. He’s not just good at it – he’s obsessed with it, constantly looking for ways to make the code run faster and smoother.

But it’s not just about making things efficient for Lincoln. It’s about the challenge of solving problems, the thrill of finding the optimal solution, and the satisfaction of seeing a system run seamlessly because of his efforts.

In a nutshell, Lincoln isn’t just a developer – he’s a code artist. His unique talent for optimizing SQL queries and backend code is a key reason why Teesom can offer the swift, lag-free performance that our users love.
