@antfu.me hey! I've been trying to reach you via email for a special message 😃 Could you send me a DM?

Sneak dissing never ends well with me

So it's looking like I'll be speaking at @renderatl.com at the Node.js Interactive track.

Catch me and @pfrazee.com live tomorrow! Going to be fun discussing builder mentality and ownership in respect to how its showing up at Bluesky!

June is coming so fast! I'm so excited to have my stupid idea from a year ago be so close to done. Fingers crossed but if everything works out, I hoping to launch the game live during my talk "How I Ignored Reddit and Made a Steam Game Using React" at @renderatl.com

"move fast and break things" was a cute motto until you break prod on a friday at 4:47pm. then it's just "move fast and update your resume." be careful out there...

We’re excited to welcome technical communities and organizations from around the world into RenderATL as community partners. Every year, it gets bigger than Atlanta, and that’s because of the people building in their own cities and bringing that energy with them. Apply today: RenderATL.com/links

Happy to welcome @pfrazee.com, CTO of @bsky.app to the @renderatl.com 2026 speaker lineup! See you soon in the Silicon South!

Paaaaaaaain in my eyeeeeeeees, can you sew them shut?!

I've been seeing an alarming pattern in OSS GitHub communities lately: people just scraping issues, pinging maintainers with urgency to get the issues assigned to them and producing PRs (mostly through coding agents) within minutes of maintainers agreeing to assign the issue.

Have you heard!? We’re giving away FREE tickets to BlerDCon so if you love anime, gaming, comics, cosplay, and blerd culture… this is for you. And while you’re there? Pull up to our conversation with Zillow! 🎟️ Grab your free tickets now in the RenderATL app: renderatl.com/app

least surprising thing ever: llms are NOT ANALYTICS TOOLS. “it explained everything so confidently, nobody questioned it” literally “so confident” is a red flag.

This is how I stay focused.

@steipete.me hey! I saw on your repo to ping you on social (or email) about speaking at conferences! I organize @renderatl.com and I would love to have you keynote our AI track this year. We also created an open source award show, that I would love to nominate your projects for! 👇🏾 commits.dev

Stop Drop Shut em down Open up shop

JSConf Guadalajara was the perfect setting to meet these amazing people 💙 What started as networking became real friendships. Good food, great conversations, and connections that matter. @rginn206.bsky.social @msbrianaholmes.com @thugdebugger.dev @bytesofbree.bsky.social

More conferences are adapting the silent headphones stages I welcome this trend 😏

MCP is about to do to user experiences, what API did in the 2010s While you may not like AI, your customer & user base is eating it up and demanding it in your app interactions. MCP will become a standard within the next year.

We are excited to announce @infinite.red, Old Mission, @arcjet.com, and @renderatl.com as React Conf silver sponsors this year!

For too long, Open Source developers have been overlooked and taken for granted. Our goal with The Commits is to provide a platform where open source can finally have their biggest night at the same level as The Oscars or The Grammys...but at The Commits ⬇️

Protect your mental health. Strong leaders protect their and their team’s mental health. Be strong leaders.

Can't code? I'd say ask a friend, but at the rate AI is improving, maybe you won't even need to. Someone built a functional Appview with replit overnight. bsky.app/profile/doll...

👀 Something big is happening next summer during @renderatl.com. Join the live stream announcement with our friends at @github.com featuring @alacolombiadev.bsky.social, @francescociulla.bsky.social, and more special guests 😏 Learn more ⬇️ t.co/xhMLHstfx5

This is a big reason why we’re starting The Commits awards. Open Source needs an outlet to honor, appreciate and thank the often thankless work of maintainers, ESPECIALLY the next generation! More details to come!

@thugdebugger.dev and I showing off our pearls at #cascadiaJS!! Fierce fashion sense 🤩

I'm working on a report on the causes of burnout in open source software. If you're a part of the OSS community, I would love to hear your thoughts, either here on Bluesky, or privately via email (see post). Thanks 😊 mirandaheath.website/report-on-bu...

This is unconscionable. Where are the members of Congress speaking about this? Esp the ones who call themselves Christian (yeah, I mean Speaker Mike Johnson). Does the media even ask about it?

Mic check 🎤

So pumped! It’s going to be a glorious time!

okay, announcement time! as of this week, Learn With Jason (the company) has officially rebranded – we're @codetv.dev now! - CodeTV refocuses on what we produce (vs centering on me) - we now have the option to become a supporter to get early access: codetv.dev/support more to come. stay tuned!

Horsepower Horsepower All this polo on, I got horsepower

Just a heads up @renderatl.com receives thousands of applications per year to speak We only have 8-10 slots to fill from the CFP submissions Please keep this in mind as you begin to receive notice from our speaker review team.

BlueSky won’t be taken seriously until advertisers are able to push marketing via sales funnels to you. It’ll be a pet project until then. Can’t exist long term without revenue
