The team you make is a reflection of yourself. Adam Jacob from Swamp shared this on @changelog.com and it’s got me thinking…what do I see in them that are actually changes they need in me?

I have a collection of bookmarks for all kinds of websites & web apps that do different things (mostly utility), but I use only a few of them frequently The SVG repo website is one of the most useful websites I know www.svgrepo.com/collections/ almost every time I need an #SVG logo I find it here

Productivity doesn't matter if you're working on the wrong thing.

Alright this is an annoyingly fun idea eyeball.rory.codes

How do you eat an elephant?

NASA just dropped 12,000 photos from the Artemis II mission. Too many to add to ArtemisTimeline.com, so I just put up a tool at ArtemisTimeline.com/vote so that people can vote on small batches allowing for all of the images to be sorted! (yes, I posted this before, but I had to fix something!)

If your Android builds are taking a while to complete on EAS, try out the EAS_GRADLE_CACHE flag to save time on subsequent builds 🚀

Anyone hanging at AMS for the flight to Kraków later?

For those on here who are devs or dev adjacent…how would you describe 1-on-1 meetings to people who don’t know?

Definitely have been enjoying this. Everything looks nice, and it’s the first light mode I’d consider using. Weird feeling.

The struggle of teaching software dev in a public HS is I’m supposed to be the senior dev for 60+ juniors that I can only pay in knowledge and dad jokes. Fortunately, my students are awesome. 😎

Another beautifully honest and human look at young peoples’ experiences by @alv9n.com.

I love feeling like I make a breakthrough in my learning. Finally feel like I’m grasping jest. What’s a learning breakthrough you feel you’ve had lately?

My guest blog post on @expo.dev is live! @galaxies.dev had a question out there one day and I knew it would be a topic to come back to! Read up on Ignite Generators here: expo.dev/blog/increas...

It’s cool to see the React team land on needing to deprecate something and make sure it’s well documented how to move forward if your project used it. 😁

Weak men cannot compromise. Weak men cannot build consensus. Weak men think that leadership means force. Weak men build nothing that lasts.

That's all

I'm Dying...🤣 GitHub went hard on this ad!

Marriage and coding have taught me sometimes the problem is that we disagree what a problem is.

I’ve got one of my CS students wanting to do a personal project to make a 2D platformer in Unity. Any suggestions on resources I should point him to or look into myself?

The nice thing about smallpox is that, if it comes back, they'll be able to make vaccines...but also so will I. Just take a bit of a puss from someone who is recovering and scrape it on the skin!!! (don't do this) (unless you REALLY have to)

This one is very good and goes for way more than dollars. A great way to get a little more intuitive about large numbers.

I hate doing "how to get a job in tech" type content, but I'm so tired of the awful advice I've been seeing. Finally took the time to make an updated jobs video, I hope this one can help some people out 🫡 youtu.be/2PiM2e4RtTg

Next.js's new features are powered by a hack. A beautiful hack. A truly magical one. I had to make a vid about it youtu.be/VMDydLUCLtE

I don't know that I've ever heard a better idea than bagels.

a fun idea we added in Leet Heat is "commercial breaks": @anniesexton.com, @joelhooks.com, @marisamorby.com, and I made goofy tv commercials — some for real products, like @jetbrains.com, others for absolute nonsense no regrets. it's okay to spend too much time on silly things just because 💜

Time for an experiment. I’ll post this on Bluesky and Threads. I want to see which gets more reach in the TTRPG space. I’ll share results on Monday. Comment on this post with a roleplaying game experience or memory. Let’s gather as many of these as possible!

What are your thoughts on early returns? Haven't used them much in the past, but currently felt quite good about it. Yay or Nay?

An interesting idea, and I thought I’d share. Ever wanted a list of ideas in JS? 😁

Teaser for tomorrow’s video: you always hear people are abandoning the cities for the suburbs, yet in most metro areas, the trend over the last decade was the opposite. (Cities where city growth outpaced metro = ⭐️)

First post on my first day. Hope you all are doing great! What is one thing I need to know about bsky?
