As a millennial, I forgot how much I liked Static-X's "Push it". Off into a 90's rabbit hole I go.

@jaredlemler.bsky.social is wearing this year’s cmgriffing Halloween costume a month too early.

I feel called out. @brittanyellich.com gave a great talk about why we should avoid the urge to rewrite our apps @cascadiajs.com

Awesome. Thanks for the photo

Dev Squares at @cascadiajs.com put a smile on everyone’s face. Great fun from @nearestnabors.com, @codetv.dev, @erinmikail.bsky.social, @gantlaborde.com, and more.

AI* has changed the way I write. Not because I use it to write, but because I can no longer use phrases I've used for years, like "dive into".

One of the problems I have with a lot of the BaaS companies that end up just being resellers, is that you have to go viral with your complaint about the bill you got for going viral.

It’s that time of year again. Some wild animal just spontaneously shed the majority of its fur.

Lobste.rs has an issue to get BlueSky publishing going. github.com/lobsters/lob... @pfrazee.com Is this the right approach? Should they just be publishing to an "@lobste.rs" account or would it make more sense to operate a relay of their own? Tagging @push.cx for visibility

When I am out, I typically drink bourbon and coke. At home I don't need the calories so I just do bourbon and a bunch of water. Lately I have been squeezing a quarter of a lime into the home beverage. Every time I think: Put the lime in the coconut, drink em both up

It's so hot here in Seattle, I'm feeling like Lenny. "Tell me about the winter, George. Tell me about the ski bunnies."

Oh how the turn tables... I remember when Ubuntu became the "standard" for VM/VPS use cases because Debian was too slow to update packages in the official repository. (like when PHP 5.6 was coming out) Now Debian has more up to date packages than Ubuntu LTS.

Them: I love souls-likes because of the challenge. Me: Oh so you beat Battletoads and the TMNT game already, right?

Kind of surreal to see the "Conference Speaker" part of this. CascadiaJS is such a great conference.

Which commercials do you want to do? Walton Goggins:

I'm building out Compound Keyword support for Messijo and I can't decide on how to show the toggle for the keyword part's "match on whole words only" functionality. Which do you like more?

I just saw something that blew my mind. Some sushi vendor at Mariners stadium has a roll called the “Ichiroll”. I’m mad I didn’t think of it first.

Slightly diminish a band: Aluminum Dan

TIL that a whiskey and coke is technically an elixir.

The entire world has 6 degrees of separation. The tech industry has 3 or 4 MAX. Think about that.

I wore a t-shirt that definitely dates me, but I wanted to shout out @tessamero.bsky.social. They organized this PHPNW conference back in the day and a bunch of meetups in the Seattle area. They are a huge inspiration to me getting into devrel.

Huge thanks to @cascadiajs.com , @cmgriffing.bsky.social & his stream for the raffle! I’m so grateful to have won a ticket to Seattle for CascadiaJS. Still early in my dev career, learning & finding my path. This is an amazing chance to connect, learn, & grow. Excited for #CascadiaJS!

I live in Redmond, Wa. I like to call other people from Redmond, "Redmontonians". Patent Pending...

When an elixir function gets too complex, you have to ask yourself: "Do the ends justify the means"...

With this one simple trick, you can massively increase application usage metrics. Very clever, Cursor

I was talking about AI not being able to absorb liability and somehow we got onto the topic of Neuralink. I then uttered the phrase "Do not trust KetamElon". Patent Pending for the term "KetamElon"

🤔 Have you ever wanted a plugin system for your project that can support a bajillion different languages? @cmgriffing.bsky.social has you covered in his talk from SquiggleConf 2024 on @extism.bsky.social! Check it out! youtu.be/Kpc5rbF_9ug

Audiophiles are easier to milk than a cow...

The worst devs I have ever worked with are the ones that can't help but mention how long they've been doing it.

The cheese steaks here at here-after are fantastic! Philly people might complain but they are 3000 miles away…

Seeing Silversun Pickups here in Seattle. They are killing it 20 years later.

Every once in a while I see myself without a beanie and think: "Wow, I might have to narfle the Garthok", Coneheads style.

Lately, I've been thinking about doing some procrastination, but I just haven't gotten to it, yet.

A YouTuber shouted out my neovim plugin, nvim-biscuits, yesterday. Here is a link to the YouTube video: www.youtube.com/watch?v=AAkr... And here is a link to nvim-biscuits: github.com/code-biscuit...

Just remember, a "419 Got A Minute?" is still better than a "421 Better Late than Never" response...

So many people think the Dunning Krueger curve stops at the end of the graph. WRONG. Dunning Krueger's right side just opens up new curves where you are the left side again. It's a fractal.

I consider software/music/game piracy as a problem of means. Do you have the means? Well, that might be a problem. Until then... ARRRR me matey!!! Disclaimer: This is not legal advice

I'm a June birthday and a lot of other people I know in person and in chat are also June birthdays... September and early October must be SUPER boring for couples.

The madlad did it!

Y'all know the movie Armageddon? Hear me out. Jewel and Fiona Apple were the asteroid of awesome singer/songwriter music that Sheryl Crow was sent as a weapon to divert.

One of these things is not like the other. Resend: 2 requests per second Sendgrid: 10,000 requests per second (v3 API)

Nicely done! Tagging the rest of the teem @gitkraken.com

Entropy is fast. The entropy of a side project you haven't touched in 5 years is faster.

This weather in June is like an early birthday present. I'm never leaving the northwest. #Seattle

There are some really smart devs in the world that you shouldn't listen to about specific things. Would you listen to a 747 pilot about how to fly a helicopter? You shouldn't.

It finally happened... The first game that I have been unable to launch with my geforce 1080 was Doom: The Dark Ages. Might be time to upgrade.

I can't be the only streamer who has been seeing this @YouTube Studio bug for over a week. It would be really nice to be able to see my chat in this window.

I just found out how bad my mustache was. I didn't even need to reset my FaceID after shaving it off.

Tomorrow is my Streamiversary. 7 YEARS!!! As part of the celebration I will be shaving the mustache live. (long overdue) We will also be announcing the winner of the giveaway for a free ticket to @CascadiaJS. You still have time to enter. Just hop into stream and ask for the link.
