Going through the Chrome DevTools, and I have an appreciation for the folks that put this much time and effort into the documentation and tool itself! The reading can be dense, but so much good information. #theodinproject

I've been up to something recently, and going back in time to conquer some lessons, specifically JavaScript that I quit when I was first learning how to code back in 2021. While I'm here, I have a goal of completing the Ruby on Rails track in 2026! #TheOdinProject

Nerd moment. Using the copilot community plugin in Obsidian, I am now able to connect to a LLM of choice and use it make note creation, summarization, and all the fancy things directly in the second brain! 🔥🤯 Updating my weekly dev log might be easier now since I can query all my notes.

Probably not a good idea to be downloading football manager again.. I clocked 1.6k hours in 2021 😅 but obviously the world was different during that time.

I haven't done this in a loooooong time! Since I've been dabbling with Python for fun, I thought I might as well do a challenge a day to keep it interesting.

Did not use PREP for the spaghetti code of a mess for this filter message challenge on boot.dev, but IT WORKED!

I just finished my 100 hours project and wanted to share it with the 100Devs community. DevLeads (devleads.site) is a complete, self-hosted lead management system I built specifically for freelance web developers. It handles everything from initial contact to final payment.(cont.) #100Devs #webdev

This is wild. 😂 tutorial teaching folks git/github and editing README files for express.js. Couldn’t imagine being a maintainer for this repo and managing all these PRs. youtu.be/YFkeOBqfQBw?...

Level 0. Gotta start somewhere 😂 Registered badge from Hacktoberfest! www.holopin.io/hacktoberfes...

Third PR for #hacktober 🎃 this was a script to be executed for a scheduled job that submitted a catalog item request. Reason is if the trigger for the workflow is service catalog, it can still be selectable on the portal, AND still be executed as a job if desired.

I quit The Odin Project back in 2021 because I thought it was too hard and I’m thinking of running it back to close that chapter of completing it. At the same time, I want to try Dual-booting and it’s a good excuse to learn Linux.

Starting Chapter 1 of The Developer’s Guide to AI. Sharing my thoughts so far 😎 In ServiceNow, I build systems that follow rules/steps. Learning AI is the opposite. The system learns from patterns, not steps. It’s teaching me to think less about control and more about direction. 🧠💡

Coming in clutch tonight with the new episode drop! @dthompsondev.bsky.social @leonnoel.bsky.social no doubt the podcast will be top 2 in my Spotify wrapped for 2025. #theprogrammingpodcast open.spotify.com/episode/1Vlf...

Second PR for #hacktober. The repo I’m contributing to is for ServiceNow #hack4good initiative. If there’s an opportunity to build these at Knowledge, I’m taking it!

Considering it’s a week break on podcasting for Danny and Leon, thought I’d run back one of my favorite episodes of The Programming Podcast. open.spotify.com/episode/5nqE...

I got got

Opening PRs at midnight 👻 because it’s #hacktober I was able to submit my first Hack4Good idea to be built in ServiceNow.

As you know with @commityourcode.bsky.social I like to be 100% transparent with EVERYTHING. For #CYC25, A full financial post-mortem is coming soon, but we are supporting three charities this year instead of 2! St. Jude Children's Hospital Operation Kindness and FreeCodeCamp Long post

LFG!! Keynote kickoff by @dthompsondev.bsky.social @commityourcode.bsky.social #CYC25

The @commityourcode.bsky.social Pickleball event for Day[0] was a HUGE SUCCESS! We even had a pickleball pro guiding newer players with a group lesson! I guess you could say it was a... Smashing success 😂 pun absolutely intended! Also this shirt by Jake is actually amazing 😂😂😂

Too afraid to talk at a conference? Make Me the Bad Guy! Introducing the new EventConvo conversation prompt cards for #CYC25! Just walk up to someone, say the prompt on your card, and wait for them to say theirs back. THEN you both sign the cards. It really works.
