Ordered a table from Wayfair in July. It went on backorder and was cancelled automatically in August. I bought a different table from somewhere else. Just got a notification that the first table is arriving today. 👀

Garmin Bounce seems like one of the best kid tracking watches for the Android ecosystem, but it's limited and I'd like to see Garmin really run with it: - make it a whole family messaging app, instead of parents-to-Bounce focused - tighter integration with non-Bounce Garmin watches

The new 𝝠 Expo home page is live: expo.dev We were overdue for a new home that tells the story of what Expo has become: Everything you need to build apps. We added more pages to explain how Expo serves different stages of business growth across different industries. We'll 🧵 some of those below ↓

How bad is the Guardians' offense this year? WAR for Toronto Blue Jays position players that played for the Guardians in 2022: 7.9 WAR for the entire Guardians offense: 7.6

Now that local reps are gunning for military occupation of my city, it's important that we're clear that _that_ is a serious threat of political violence. There's no clearer evidence that a politician hates their own constituents than to wish they be visited by armed soldiers.

Today's the day that The Shattering Peace, the new book in the Old Man's War universe, is out in North America (UK, you have two more days). I wrote it to be enjoyable to new readers as well as old hands to the series. I hope you'll pick it up at your favorite bookseller!

been very hard to watch a bunch of 50-year-old podcasters come to terms with having a job.

being trans is awesome and trans people are amazing and gender is a dumb box and anyone who makes their own crowbar to smash it from inside is a hero actually.

From the people who brought you "if you touch a single molecule of fentanyl, maybe even with gloves on, *You Will Die*" comes the new thrilling adventure "literally burning a kilo of meth in an enclosed space is probably fine, right?"

there's a lot of exciting things going on in SDK 54, but the less exciting changes will hopefully make your upgrade smoother and your everyday DX with dependencies more stable 💕 All kinds of reliability improvements land in SDK 54! small thread about those 🧵

𝝠 Expo SDK 54 is LIVE 🚀 ◆ React Native 0.81 ◆ Precompiled RN for iOS → faster clean builds ◆ iOS 26 Liquid Glass icons + views ◆ Android 16 target, edge-to-edge default ◆ Router v6 native tabs ◆ Updates: header overrides, progress, reload screen ◆ So much more... expo.dev/changelog/sd...

Auth is quite easy with InstantDB. Magic codes working on the first try. Permissions a little harder. Didn't understand record links, and they were partially documented in 3 different places. I think there could be a simple default config for "all records are private". But still done in 45 minutes!

TIL that the last and next AGDQ were/are in Pittsburgh.

Plot twist: The real horror story is checking your calendar in October and realizing you didn't buy MagnoliaConf 2025 tickets. Don't let this nightmare become your reality. 😱 https://www.tixtree.com/e/magnolia-conf-453fc7ea2496

How to record ICE: 1) Record from a safe distance. DO NOT INTERVENE. 2) Put the DATE, TIME, & LOCATION on the video. 3) Ask for NAMES & BIRTHDAYS 4) CONTEXT, how many people were taken? What happened? How? 5) If possible, document vehicles used and agents, even if masked. @eltragon.bsky.social

InstantDB is pretty great. Fastest I've gone from 0 to data in the cloud in a long time. It makes some tradeoffs to get to an end-to-end local-first-ish solution on web and mobile, but they're sensible for a lot of apps. Wonder if it can store more locally on React Native w/ async storage "next"

Whether it's a greenfield project or an incremental migration - we're seeing an overwhelming number of Enterprise applications adopting Expo this year. It's not an accident. It's the direct byproduct of 10 years of building this platform and listening to our community. expo.dev/solutions/en...

I can’t believe these goblins have me agreeing with MTG and fucking rang pang. Dark days my friends

Latest Nativewind 4 breaks in a fresh Expo SDK 53 project with the RN worklets plugin error, which maybe means it now works as-is in SDK 54? 👀

I just goofed up the basic Final Fantasy 8 low-level strat of grinding Seifer in Dollet twice: 1. First time, forgot to heal Seifer 2. Second time, forgot how fast Seifer leaves the party

Got out for a MTB ride today. Legs weren't great but we got to see the new troll before it was mobbed. And now I'm REALLY tired And yes it still smells like wine (outside is mostly old barrel staves)

RADDATZ: You talk about what can be done. After shootings in Buffalo & Uvalde, Congress passed a bipartisan Safer Communities Act. It provided hundreds of millions for schools to expand mental health services. You didn't vote for it. Why? TOM EMMER: I don't remember the reasons I didn't vote for it

@support.bsky.team any idea what this video compression error is about? I was trying to post a screen recording from a Pixel 9a, haven't had an issue like this previously on Android phones.

I'll be on @revenuecat.com 's livestream soon to talk about shipping mobile apps with @expo.dev ! Check it out here www.youtube.com/watch?v=cjV3...

Sleepy me just hit record this morning while I deployed an app I quickly made in Bolt.new with launch.expo.dev. I'm live on web and iOS TestFlight is not far behind. Pretty cool! I'm fine with the CLI, but I could see using this a lot, the ergonomics are outstanding! www.youtube.com/watch?v=wEiC...

I'm PhD in graphic design and Cracker Barrel's REAL problem is they didn't go *far enough*

This week's comic: Government or foreign invader?

Cracker Barrel's new logo violated the first rule of modern brand design: it doesn't look like a butthole

the reason this discourse will never end is because it is completely untethered from any kind of evidentiary standard. as long as there is a 19-year-old barista somewhere saying “cultural appropriation,” guys like nichols will complain that “democrats” use alienating language.

Several of these terms come up in discussions about problems that Democrats talk a big game about solving but then never actually do. Be brave about your words and actions. Republicans pushed new dehumanizing terms AND backed it up with brutality. People ate it up. Do that but the opposite.

I have a simple vibe-coded app that saves to AsyncStorage. One day, after an Android upgrade, my data disappeared. I upgraded it to use expo-sqlite/kv-store, wrote a simple migration function, but then my phone went in the shop. Just today, noticed my long-lost data base back on my repaired phone! 🥳
