The definitive web tech tier list. www.youtube.com/watch?v=-S_Y...

We're LIVE to chat about Opus 4.8, Herdr (a better tmux), how AI is killing the small web and more! See you in the chat! www.youtube.com/watch?v=tePe... www.twitch.tv/syntaxfm/

🏆🏆🏆STARTING NOW🏆🏆🏆 www.youtube.com/watch?v=7rOU...

STARTING IN 30 MINUTES @tolin.ski vs Kyle @joshwcomeau.com vs @wesbos.com www.youtube.com/watch?v=RNp1...

AI coding still sucks but @w3cj.com is getting value out of it in other ways. www.youtube.com/watch?v=AMnQ...

Starting in 15 minutes ‼️🧑‍💻🏀 www.youtube.com/watch?v=YZZb...

Here's my guide to the local AI landscape. Hardware, setup and models. I also give my overall impressions after using local models for the past few weeks. Watch: 🍿 www.youtube.com/watch?v=QKdK...

So stoked for this! Don't forget to tune in to the premiere in about 40 minutes!

If you were building a full stack JS framework from scratch today, what would you add that is missing from Next.js, SvelteKit, Nuxt, Tanstack Start and Solid Start?

The lack of route level middleware in Next.js has always bugged me. Claude added the feature to vinext in under an hour! Unlikely to be merged in but vinext being vite based makes things like this possible! Code: github.com/w3cj/vinext/... Demo: vinext-route-proxy-examples.cj-syntax.workers.dev

I have been using SearXNG as my daily driver search engine and it's been great! I show what it is and how to set it up in my latest video I also take a look at Perplexica - a self hosted AI answer engine that uses SearXNG under the hood watch 🍿: www.youtube.com/watch?v=9pNM...

dev containers are amazing i slept on them way too long i show everything you need to know to get started in my latest video: www.youtube.com/watch?v=kPMA...

i created a dev container firewall feature that makes it super easy to lock down the network inside a dev container includes tons of allow lists like Github APIs / npm registry as well as AI APIs / tools this devcontainer.json is all you need for running sand-boxed claude code

watch me try to break a world record www.youtube.com/watch?v=3NCN...

the best programmers are the ones that can adapt and constantly learn / progress while everything is changing around them for me, 2026 will be the year of "just enough AI"™️, less hype, less FOMO, more building / shipping www.youtube.com/watch?v=e-_7...

File extensions and file paths being considered "advanced" is crazy to me. Modern OS's hide these by default and the lack of computer literacy here is a real problem for new devs especially vibe coders.

Whether you've been tricked into becoming a programmer (by AI) or are intentionally looking to dive into the world of computers and programming, my latest video will get you started. Watch 🍿: www.youtube.com/watch?v=z8bl...

I'm live over on @syntax.fm to work on the @sentry.io Debug December challenges. www.debugdecember.com Tune in everywhere you get your live streams. twitch.tv/syntaxfm www.youtube.com/watch?v=8f8G... See you in the chat.

I'm working on moving my dev environment fully to a VM or container. Any tips / tools I should look into? I basically never want to run npm install or compile binaries on my local machine ever again.

building todo apps is so hard these days scaffolded a new app, tried to start it, promise error, tried to apply db migrations, could not locate the sqlite bindings file, tried to build sqlite, node gyp compile error, re-installing xcode command line tools, ETA 23 minutes

CJ is live to solve the @sentry.io Debug December Day 1 - 5 challenges. twitch.tv/syntaxfm www.youtube.com/watch?v=ICBK... See you in the chat.

In his latest video, @w3cj.com explains how he solved Advent of Code Day 3 and Day 4 with JavaScript / TypeScript. Watch 🍿: youtu.be/PVbLd6zOVhg

I'm LIVE on twitch to do Advent of Code Day 3 && 4. See you in the chat - www.twitch.tv/codinggarden

Should CJ start an ASMR channel? Yes or Hell Yes?

Check out my POV from the "Order Pizza With Code" @syntax.fm challenge. Watch 🍕: www.youtube.com/watch?v=LBQv...

Advent of Code 2025 is here! In my latest video I explain how I solved Day 1 and Day 2. Watch 🍿: www.youtube.com/watch?v=-G-n...

Were you or anyone you know a programmer or in IT in the late 90s? If so I'd love to chat! Reply here or DM me.

The job market is pretty bad right now but I think we'll see a bounce back within the next few years. With seniors retiring and no trained juniors / mids available to be promoted, there will be a massive skill gap that needs to be filled.

Experts are still needed to validate AI output. As a beginner if you depend on and trust AI output too much you'll never learn the skills required to validate it.

Blindly trusting AI output is the modern "Gell-Mann amnesia effect"

The crew is at it again. @wesbos.com @w3cj.com and @tolin.ski all tried to order a pizza with CODE! Watch 🍕: www.youtube.com/watch?v=9O2Q...

I'm LIVE on Twitch to hang out, catch up, solve some code wars code kata and play clash of code. See you in chat: twitch.tv/codinggarden

It's that time of year again! In the latest episode of Syntax, @tolin.ski @wesbos.com @w3cj.com all share their favorite things. www.youtube.com/watch?v=UHr8...

what is @w3cj.com up to? wrong answers only

made it to NYC i have entered my moody b&w photography phase

"CJ I'm getting a little concerned, I noticed that your AI usage is hovering around 5%" - @tolin.ski

AI has ruined web search

AI Coding Tip from @w3cj.com - write the core logic / examples by hand first, then use AI to follow up.

I went 30 days without using AI to code. Here's what happened: www.youtube.com/watch?v=g6_e...

Apple accidentally left the source maps on for the new @svelte.dev web based App Store. Here's what I found. 🍿 Watch: www.youtube.com/watch?v=F1RV...

Some devs are leaning a bit too hard on AI for solutions and workflow. In my latest video I show a few examples and give some advice on what to do / use instead. Watch 🍿 www.youtube.com/watch?v=pVBK...

Made it to SF!

Looking for more examples of dumb uses of AI. Let me know if you've come across any.

What dumb uses of AI have you come across? I'm thinking of things that have existing deterministic solutions, vs expecting an LLM to get it right every time. Examples: "Given this email extract all phone numbers" vs regular expressions "Convert JSON into a type" vs IDE extension
