Being a software engineer working on Windows is not for the faint of heart. 😅 Gotta build that problem solving and resilience somehow! lol

The majority of us are a bunch of self taught people with rather spotty knowledge and that's fine! Kilian (also self taught) is here to share some of the computer science fundamentals you probably are missing with the aim to improve your code in the long term. piccalil.li/blog/program...

Time for another post. We have moved the needle ever-so-slightly but we need to push this over the 50% mark and beyond! Please share and if you can (or haven’t) please donate. All shares and donations are always greatly appreciated. www.gofundme.com/f/fundraiser...

quick (re)intro: I'm Jason, I make tv for developers at @codetv.dev & I love teaming up with devtools companies and individual devs to make unique, memorable projects - custom video - event installations - devrel / marketing strategy & campaigns I want to work with you! details: jason.energy/links

Saw this on a LI post today and needed it, so sharing in case someone else does too: You're allowed to outgrow the version of your brand that got you here. Sometimes the patterns and things we once needed to get to where we are hold us back from where we're going. Let go.

got laid off due to restructuring :( i’m now available for mid+ frontend developer/software engineering positions in the meantime, we’re back to building the future and fun on the web on atproto :)

This was a really good read, a nice walkthrough of the big picture behind the idea and lots of good diagrams! Definitely something I'm still thinking about.

We all have a choice. The Internet is ours.

Hey #CYC25 peeps👋 if I didn't get a chance to ask you to take this super-quick (2-question, no personal data collected) developer poll, would you mind taking it now. Reposts for reach very much appreciated! forms.gle/r6Xvw6R8dBTp...

I had the absolute best time at #cyc2025 the past few days. My heart is so full. I'd add pictures but it won't let me select multiple photos right now lol so I'll have to add them throughout the week. But I have the best friends. I'll share talk recaps on LinkedIn next week!

We’re live!! My brand-new course, “Whimsical Animations”, is now available. 🥳🎉 whimsy.joshwcomeau.com I’m so excited to share all of my animation tools and techniques with y’all. 😄

I dumped, washed, and re-filled my cat's litterbox, vacuumed three rooms in the house, and showered. Please clap. 👏🏼 That was about all the energy I had for today. lol But everything feels much nicer now!

Today I asked my cards: - I'm going to go through a task that I know has a high chance to make me feel down on myself. Any advice for getting through it? - How can I show myself compassion today? - Anything you want me to share with the world? These are the cards I drew. My interpretation of them:

The biggest struggle I have when wanting to build some new idea I have is picking WHAT to build it in/with. I have no set stack to go to, so each new project feels like I have to go through the process of picking all that to get started, which quickly gets overwhelming, and so I never start.

We're live! Ductts helps you track your tears with logging, tagging, selfies, and CSV exports so you can do your own data analysis on it (or give it to your therapist).

Shame is one of the hardest things about ADHD for me. I'm back and the book is finished but instead of feeling proud, I feel ashamed for not having managed to stay active, manage my household better or even shower regularly.

No stream today. :( Trying to honor my energy & right now I don't have a real direction for what I want to work on next. Tried to think through it some on yesterday's stream & maybe made progress? But generally didn't like how I felt after. So not repeating that today. Will be back to it soon!

No solid idea of what I'm doing today on stream, but I am streaming! lol We'll figure it out as we go. :) www.twitch.tv/lindakat

shameless reminder that if you like what we're doing at CodeTV and want to see more of it, you can become a supporter for $5/month and help us make more tv for developers! codetv.dev/support

Last stream of the week is live! Will be attempting to fix a bug in my last project, then brainstorming what's next and trying to make a plan. www.twitch.tv/lindakat

Used today's stream to finally get the README written for my latest portfolio project!! Only thing remaining is to get it on my portfolio site with a case study I haven't written yet. lol Had to break out the timer to do pomodoros today and it helped.

Live for another stream / co-working session. Will be working on a project readme to get it ready to share, maybe some case study work as well. You're welcome to enjoy the lo-fi and have someone else doing a thing with you! www.twitch.tv/lindakat

Streaming but it'll be very low-key and quiet like I feel today. Still getting it done. www.twitch.tv/lindakat

My "Play Ball!" Web Dev Challenge hackathon project is live and submitted! 🙌🏼 It stores your selected teams in local storage and shows you when your favs are playing and some recent scores. I had so much fun with this! play-ball.netlify.app

The @virtualcoffee.io inaugural conference is going on in just over an hour on @cfedev.bsky.social. Let's go! cfe.dev/events/virtu...

Last stream of the week is LIVE! The goal today is to wrap up as much of my WDC hackathon project as possible. Building a little app in Astro to see current baseball game schedules for selected teams! www.twitch.tv/lindakat

SUCH a great stream today! Had people hanging out and chatting, made solid progress on my hackathon project, and got my first raid! 🎉🎉 So glad I finally got out of my own way and starting streaming. It's still very small and I still have lots I want to improve, but it consistently lifts my mood.

Live now! Continuing work on my tentatively titled "play ball" app for the Web Dev Challenge hackathon. www.twitch.tv/lindakat

I love Kelly's point here of the universe just asking you to notice the small moments that bring you joy. Attention, that's all. Needed that reminder today. 💜

Once again, autism does not need to be “cured.” Neurodivergence is not something to remove. Every neurodivergent life matters, as we are, without erasure.

Bit of a scattered stream today lol but did get my idea solidified a bit more and played a bunch with Postman to get the API endpoints sorted out! So some progress, at least. lol

Live now!! Planning out my idea for the Web Dev Challenge hackathon and getting things set up. Come say hi! www.twitch.tv/lindakat

The mindset shift I needed today.
