i immediately suspected mostly because it seemed like an interesting plot device as well as the obvious thing that character would do in that situation

To give a example, the Dublin market seems to be set up where be devs outnumber the frontenders, the be folks are mostly python and java, they end up in management more often, and are generally universally shocked by all the churn with fe tech. Vite SPA's and query just work by 5pm there.

Most large successful enterprises are now allowing JS on servers at all. They have backends and API written in different languages by different teams. It's ridiculous to think that's going to change any time soon or even that it should. Full-Stack JS represents such a small part of reality.

and i thought prettier’s default formatting of ternaries was 💩

we’re cooked…

what is your “poor man’s bookmark” on bsky? i usually just DM it to myself in Slack

recent shows i enjoyed in no particular order: - The Penguin - Only Murders in the Building - What We Do in the Shadows - Wyatt Earp & the Cowboy War - Mr. McMahon

Donald Trump absolutely HATES the “President Musk” meme with a passion. Let’s keep spreading it.

What happened to the world’s largest CRT? @shankmods.bsky.social went on a quest to find the last surviving Sony 43” tube TV, tracked down from one of only two known photos of the 440-pound behemoth.

this is fun. @bolt.new givin away 2M tokens for end of year. what should i generate?

someone asked how i feel about early returns. well, i keep this in my copilot-instructions. big fan

i ❤️ mechanical pencils. I'm partial to 0.9mm lead. these are my favorites ✏️ www.amazon.com/gp/product/B... www.amazon.com/gp/product/B... www.amazon.com/gp/product/B...

and don't under estimate the power of a good .cursorrules or copilot-instructions.md file. there a few good directories you can use as a start cursor.directory or cursorlist.com it's so useful to be able to declare your preferred coding style, frameworks/libraries, naming conventions, & other rules

digging this wrapped feature from @raycast.com

wikipedia has dark mode! 😮

i'm a big fan of shottr.cc makes it easy to set a screenshot folder, annotate screenshots, save them OR just copy to clipboard, since 90% of my screenshots i just need to draw an arrow and paste to Slack, then trash it.

i love using this lib w iconify & tailwindcss-icons 🔥 github.com/egoist/tailw...

my tiny equivalent of this is: - redesign/rewrite my blog site - “i’m going to write/post a new article every week!” - maintain that pace for ~3 weeks - repeat next year

Nightowl is the 🐐 i used to change themes every other week, but i’ve been on Nightowl for like 5 years. tried switching a few times, but always end up back on Nightowl

TIL you can get the patch from any PR or commit on GitHub just by appending .patch to the URL

just did my first bsky block. u fear mongering, religious, reply guy. yuck, felt too much like X

Introduce yourself with some jobs you’ve done apart from what you do now: - audio engineer - producer/beat maker - wedding DJ - photographer/videographer - motion designer - inside sales - UPS unloader - line cook - waiter

alternatively the built-in window mgmt in @raycast.com is pretty excellent. i mapped all the key commands to match Rectangle. works great, 1 less app to install

i feel like this library should be more popular www.npmjs.com/package/mupdf only 784 weekly downloads. maybe because it's Apache-3.0 ?

if we're trying to leave all the things we dislike about twitter behind, i suggest people stop screenshotting tweets and captioning them with outrage.

the energy i bring to bsky

Would you look at that. GitHub has added support for Bluesky handles on your GitHub profile.

digging the discourse here but definitely missing the bookmark feature @bsky.app
