Half serious question: if you have to give a half dozen or more portfolio presentations over a short period of time and everyone wants to see different things would it be cool to do a single choose your own adventure slide deck?

Somehow I’ve ended up with more meetings in my first week of being unemployed than my last 3 months of having a job.

For all of AI’s faults it doesn’t get enough credit for ending the conversation around NFTs.

Every time I get mad at a piece of software for being buggy yet refuse to submit any bug reports I have to remind myself that an untold number of people using stuff I built are doing the exact same thing.

I made some space on my site to start documenting all the little tools I build for myself to help me build better as I've shifted out of using Figma as my primary design tool. The first thing I put up was "John Town" which is my web-based server/git/agent watcher. johndonmoyer.com/tools/john-t...

It's been an honor to work with Yoshiya these last few years. Truly a great, thoughtful, engineer and any team would be lucky to have him.

Yesterday was my last day at Deno. I'm sad to leave but I'm proud of everything the team and I were able to build. I'm glad I had the opportunity to work with some of the most talented people I've met. I wish them all the best! I'm actively looking for my next challenge, my DMs are open!

Today is my last day with the Deno team 🦕💖💔 I know they're gonna keep making awesome things. But now *I* need to make awesome things for someone else! If you're looking for a DevRel with a JS focus and extra sparkle, get in touch!

Yesterday was my last day at Deno. It's rare you get to work with so many highly skilled peers in one place, but I'll be now cheering from the sidelines. Not sure yet what comes yet. I'm officially looking for a job now!

Yesterday I updated my bio as I'm no longer with the #1 🦕-themed javascript company. I'm sad to go but excited to see what's next. I've spent the last few years designing exclusively in code, building agent skills, working on command-line tools, and crafting dev docs experiences. Hit me up.

Definitely the #1 person to Phil a hole you may have in your Developer Experience journey. A+++ would work with again

I know why it is the way it is from a small business perspective but I really miss living in a city where I didn't have to choose between these two options when looking for a place to hang out in the afternoon: A) Coffee that tastes good B) Coffee that's available after 3PM

The npm supply chain and JS ecosystem had a rough 2025. A self-replicating worm. A phishing attack on chalk and debug. AI assistants writing code that does who knows what with your credentials. I wrote up some notes on what happened and how to actually defend against it: dev.to/thisisjofran...

Decidedly not the Xzibit-themed "yo dawg we put a platform in your platform" announcement post I was hoping for but we'll take it.

Spent the last ~2 days building an entire agent orchestration platform using every single feature in Deno Deploy based on a single jurassic park reference from 23 years ago. Almost ready to show and tell. Until then, a teaser: www.youtube.com/watch?v=efJK...

Today my fireplace service tech asked me about Claude Code in case you're wondering what that product's market penetration is like right now.

Updated the advertised shortcuts on johndonmoyer.com to expose these "advanced features" to a wider audience.

Got hit with the “excuse me, do you work here?” At REI today which is really one of the best compliments I could receive. Only ranking behind the same statement but said at a Micro Center. Which would unfortunately never happen because I don’t own the wardrobe from Office Space.

You use a spreadsheet to determine which gear to farm. (This is many games I have enjoyed)

coincidence that Ratatat - Seventeen Years was my #1 studying song taking CS classes in 2009 and now 17 years later I too "don't write my stuff anymore, I just kick it from my head" 🤔 www.youtube.com/watch?v=y8Vr...

I've gotten my fair share of "Hello {FNAME}," over the years but this might be the first one where they just sent the whole template.

Watched the "most dangerous LAN party" where some people ran a network cable across 2 cars while driving down the highway and wondering if that was any more dangerous than me as a teen going to LANs at the houses of rando adults I met on message boards www.youtube.com/watch?v=QNCa...

tfw your publicly traded energy company is about to remind you that they are a publicly traded energy company

in middle school this girl in my class told some kid "go eat an egg" and I still quote it to this day

Putting the dril tweet into @monarchmoney.bsky.social's assistant looking for advice. It's been 3 minutes and the thing hasn't budged off "thinking" so I guess they aren't good at the economy

can't believe we're this far into the Web and shopping for clothes still looks like this

*fortune 500 CEO voice* guys come on please just get on

people were so against selling out they'd even invite trumpeters and trombonists to play with their band to make their music even louder, ensuring their voice was heard

I feel bad for people trying to launch a new business when one of your first five reviews is a one-star review because they think you're buying coffee from a local cult when in fact the local cult is actually a different coffee shop who also buys coffee from the same roaster 🤦

I like the part where it sends me an AI update about what it saw on my cameras and then I open the app and it asks me if I want to agree to start getting AI updates powered by gemini (that it is already giving me without my consent?)

If you're wondering how long it takes to mostly forget how to use Figma, 12 months will do a number on ya.

The New York Times opinion page isn't holding anything back now smh.

They're calling him the Pistons' @ronbronson.com www.youtube.com/watch?v=g20f...

Private equity firms slowly buying up and ruining every service business in the country is one of the biggest unspoken stains on our economy. - Signed, a person who just had to shop for garage door parts on ebay to save 90% and avoid unnecessary warranties, service plans, and other random upsells.

here's what I've been designing for the last year

This is the Ron's birthday surprise of banner unveilings.

tfw you're trying to write a sports theme but don't have a piano in the hotel where you're staying youtu.be/V_h7Lm7C9Nk?... (Welcome back NBA)

remember cable TV?

tfw triangle man is at it again

Not sure what mine is but this whole thread reminds me of the time Kareem Abdul-Jabbar published his review of Girls where he made a Wonderfalls reference.

Just heard a Gen Alpha refer to a board game as a “non-virtual game” and never felt older

how many youtubers are gonna buy the iPhone Air just to bend it on camera? what's the Influencer Bends Per Unit Sold (IBPUS) on that model gonna be? gotta be a new record

whoops my bad

Listening to old podcast episodes that feature recently recorded ad reads by the host creates a strange listener experience. I didn't even realize that host-read ad inventory could be inserted dynamically until I was listening to 2018 episodes of @acquiredfm.bsky.social advertising WorkOS.

They say there’s no culture in Ohio but pretty soon the Dayton metro area will have Buc-ee’s, Wawa, AND Sheetz.

Going on a solo business trip when your last time at the airport was an international trip with toddlers is like when you go back to the starting area of a video game with your end game gear.
