Does anyone have any suggestions for trying to use element.getAnimations() or getComputedStyles while there's another action spamming recomputes on the page? They return empty in this case, even when behind a requestAnimationFrame.

Who needs a gym when you can just carry heavy boxes several blocks to DHL.

When open source projects reject a PR, we're not doing it out of animus. Many times people create PRs with valuable changes, and while correct, would break so many people that we can't land it without a massive effort. We can't always commit to that. A lot of factors go into these decisions.

Does anyone know if `element.getAnimations()` causes a reflow, like getComputedStyles does?

I was in Paris for a long weekend between Friday and Monday. In that time, I walked 82,788 steps for a total of 58.53 km / 36.37 miles. My feet still hurt, but it was worth it.

⚡ Speaker highlight: Jessica Janiuk, Staff Engineer @angular.dev Angular lived through a renaissance recently With new features and improved DX but also betting on Vite & testing via Vitest But is this the end? No! @thepunderwoman.com will tell us about Angular’s Vite future. viteconf.amsterdam

For those that are trying to learn more advanced JavaScript, currying is when you take a function and then serve it with a creamy sauce and some spices typically with meat, fish or vegetables. Hope this helps!

I went an entire day not noticing I had two different shoes on. Same type of shoe, but different colors. I only discovered it when I took them off when getting home. I'm not sure whether to be embarrassed or impressed.

If you give Beyonce a sword, technically it becomes a Bey blade.

We just posted a brand new RFC on the future of animations in Angular. Take a look and leave your thoughts! github.com/angular/angu...

I'm having one of those days where I'm just totally exhausted and don't feel like doing much. The heat is likely contributing.

Between a rock and a hard place #vagueposting

I never read the word "Apropos" as it's supposed to be pronounced. I read it as it's spelled and it messes me up every time.

Angrily shouting "Representative!!!" at an automated phone system qualifies as prompt engineering.

Is it "use-case", "use case", or "usecase"? My brain always wants to make it one word, but Google docs keeps reminding me I'm wrong.

Happy Pride everyone. What I’m thinking about this Pride is, despite their attempts to make us go back in the closet, there are more of us now than ever before. They couldn’t make us go away if they tried their hardest.

The Angular Mascot RFC is live and you should go vote. I'm really pulling for the Angular fish designs. So definitely vote for 2️⃣ or 3️⃣. I guess you can vote for 1️⃣, if you like it, but you're missing an opportunity for an adorable pun mascot. github.com/angular/angu...

🔥 Angular v20 is out! ‣ Stabilizing reactivity APIs and incremental hydration ‣ Integration with Chrome DevTools ‣ Improved type checking, simpler style guide, etc. ‣ RFC for an official Angular mascot ✨ ‣ Way more! goo.gle/angular-v20-...

If you're attending @jsheroes.io this week, please say hello! I'd love to meet you.

Sometimes I go years with no migraines. This morning I'm experiencing my second of the year. 😣

Nice

Today is a tough day. I miss home.

That is in fact what this administration has done.

Friends who are EU citizens, please consider signing this initiative against conversion "therapies": eci.ec.europa.eu/043/public/ About 400,000 signatures are still needed in just a couple of days. I think it's possible! Sign!

Intrusive thought of the day: Whenever I see cyclists signaling to turn, I want to give them a high five with the hand they're using to signal. Can't leave 'em hanging!

Update on my #cat, Ezra: He's doing a lot better. His back legs seem a bit stiff, but the medication has been doing its job. I finally managed to get a urine sample from him today, and when I dropped it off, the vet said "I've never seen a cat walk that way." Yikes! I'm glad he's doing better.

Gotta love the internet sometimes

I've started vlogging! I'm sharing my experiences with my relocation to Germany. Eventually, once I settle in, I hope to do some making videos, too. You can watch the latest one here: youtu.be/WbuZa-Hsvb0?...

I tried Spezi today for the first time, and... No thanks. It's not awful or anything. Just not a mix of flavors that I enjoy.

Looks like today will be an emergency vet visit. Ezra suddenly started squat walking this week and I'm suspecting a UTI. #cats

I treated myself for Star Wars Day this year. I love the Cal Kestis Cross guard saber. It's as large as a German longsword.

I never knew Jean-luc was such a fashionista! #startrek

I keep having dreams that I have a partner or am getting married. Yet in waking life I have no interest in either. Weird.

So now that we have USB-C PD that can handle up to 240W of power, can we just make that the standard for everything worldwide? No more barrel jacks or IEC ports. Just power everything via USB-C.

This one is easy.

The first in-person @viteconf.org is coming up in Amsterdam this October. While the line-up is growing, get to know the amazing confirmed speakers who will share their insights and experiences with Vite and the ecosystem. Including @evanyou.me @patak.dev @mk.gg @thepunderwoman.com and many more

We're almost at a month of being in Germany. I've been wanting to do something to share / process my feelings & experiences about everything. I've been toying with either video or writing. Historically I've written, but I'm leaning towards video. If I did that, would you be interested in watching?

I think I'm becoming a coffee snob. I bought a Fellow Aiden coffee maker and it's amazing! So much better than almost any other coffee maker I've had.

Munich men seem to be rather bold. In two days I've had two guys randomly start a conversation with me while I'm just walking or doing something like shopping.
