Has anyone happened across a plugin or extension or something that hides private GitHub repos, etc, for use when pairing/sharing/streaming?

That urge to stack up projects to freely swap between and never be bored, but then invariably way over extend myself. 🫠

Our youngest kiddo wants to watch Cake Pop Demon Hunters. Worth the watch?

This initiative looks like a lovely way to help the ecosystem shift forward!

A commonly proposed alternative to structured concurrency in JavaScript is "why not use async/await + AbortController" But strangely enough, nobody actually ever does this in practice 🤔 Here's why it's not a real solution frontside.com/blog/2025-0...

Argh, Windows... The apps and windows seemingly random behavior opening and moving between monitors. *annoyed sigh*

I am the destroyer of useEffect. I ruthlessly cull the many instances in each component I touch. Also, please stop. I have enough on my hands making certain the node_module black hole doesn't kill us first.

I probably don't talk about it enough, but we made a package to help in building up a changelog and handling releases. We made it for @tauri.app as we needed to release multiple Rust crates and JavaScript npm packages all from the same repo, coordinated. github.com/jbolda/covec...

Went (indoor) rock climbing for the first time in probably more than a decade. Pretty certain I blacked out on the way out and got hit by a truck because oh my do I hurt... Brought the kiddos along though and they enjoyed it 😁

Looking through the TODO list and seeing those entries from 2022 🫠

There are a lot of incredibly talented people on the job market right now. Many of my friends in DevRel, OSPO, program management, and engineering are looking for their next role, some have been searching for months. If you’re hiring, please consider sharing a link to your open roles below. TY ❤️

It baffles me the number of things that appear in my head, but promptly disappear before I can even add it to the TODO list.

This tracks...

The ecosystem is coming along! Looking forward to try out more local-first libraries, and this is a great reference for it.

Surprise — we’re turning 20 later this year. We've impacted millions of users and 300K+ developers—from startups to enterprises to OSS. We never chased the spotlight, just the hardest problems— and after 20 years, boy, do we have stories. 😅 Follow along at #Frontside20

Less than 40 hours for this stream! Excited to explore more alternative rendering options in @tauri.app. Looking at chromium with Bill! www.youtube.com/live/6SO_hRD...

I added home row mods on my split keyboard weeks ago. And... have yet to actually try them.

I reread through the docs again this weekend, and saw a note about `--force`. That actually seems to work relatively well. I spun up a POC that I had been meaning to do. Made some changes in `node_modules`, stopped and started the server with `vite --force`, and did that for every change.

What is the vibe on `patch-package` or equivalent within Vite? It seems like it is still an expected use case, but with all the caching, it is rather difficult to muck around in `node_modules` to test things out. I feel like there is a flag or something that I am missing to improve that workflow.

Catching up on all of the DMs and messages today, and prepared to be overwhelmed tomorrow. 🙃 I suppose that is better than the alternative of forgetting about and accidentally ignoring folks! (Which if I have, sorry!)

the doge teens destroying the general services administration's magnetic tape backups because they think it's like a vhs of aladdin 2: the return of jafar might be the niche thing that kills me

This is not an April Fools joke! 🤣 Hop in as we check it out and ask questions. Starting in an hour!

Some interesting developments on the @tauri.app front, and we are excited to bring Tony on the live stream to discuss in 14 hours! Expect plugin experimenting. youtube.com/live/1W6FIpC...

Ugh, compiling an ESM lib for a GitHub Action is such a royal pain. Days wasted and on my 4th option now. To be fair, CJS and WASM are in the mix, but.... I will be happy when the ecosystem is on the other end of this migration of CJS vs ESM.

When you are writing frontend tests (say through Playwright, etc.), what has been your worst experience in trying to test the "negative" cases? Say I want an endpoint to return a 404, and test the appropriate banner message. What is painful with that experience? Working through API design here...

What are folks using these days for bundling for a GitHub Action? I've likely multiple actions that are in need of migrating.

Yea, we are doing this.

Quick stream (because time constraint) to look at around at some @tauri.app plugins for alternative interactions and IPC-type communications. Starting in 20 minutes! youtube.com/live/Tu9vJP0...

Going to play around with some raw websockets to hook up to our @tauri.app. Starting in an hour!

Working on some websockets within our @tauri.app app today. Should we do it all in the webview? Hop in and see what we land on! Starting in less than an hour!

Looking around at all of... this *gestures*... It has me really wanting to dig deeper on local-first apps as a default model and push more the value of data privacy.

Whoa, this seems like some good news in a sea of... not lately.

Diving into Loro on stream today. Local-first, CRDT library written in Rust. Excited to explore it deeper! Starting in one hour.

I think I may need a caliper... First attempt was too large, but got it well enough on the second. Getting into practical 3D prints. One of the cats likes to pull the food out to eat it. It would constantly get caught on that lip, and then she would ignore it. Hoping this helps.

Kicking around ideas for the next video, and I am trying to list the types of programming or tech videos. Tutorials are an obvious one. What other classifications of videos can you think of and/or have you watched?

Weekly stream starts in an hour! Wiring up some websockets to our Tauri app. Hop in and ask some questions!

Well, I haven't shared many of my 3D prints here yet. Soon ™️ I'm at the point where I'm considering jumping into OpenSCAD so that says something.

When the car decides he needs a shower too...

Happy New Year everyone! This is the first and last time for the next six months where I correctly call it 2025.

Quick stream today (at the normal time). Going through hooking up a physical (and old) Android device to Android Studio to debug a Tauri app. Should learn some new things here! Starts in 1 hour!

Trying to decide if it is worth bring an old i7-930 back to life as a little server or NAS. I can't decide if it is worth it. What do you think? www.intel.com/content/www/...

My explanation on @tauri.app Commands is out, and reception is good. Nice way to head into the new year! youtu.be/VMcTNqH5J5g

One interesting result of this is, we have all of these feeds created per trend. What do we do with them after the trend is over? We haven't decided 100% yet, but one interesting option is that we just freeze them as archives, becoming a snapshot of the events of that day. Which is fun! (5/5)

Playing Monument Valley 3 with my daughter and oh my is it mind-bendy in an incredibly lovely way.

Digging into Vivaldi here. Looks like a lot of customization possible which is both cool and overwhelming. Is it possible to remotely close tabs on other devices? Can I close or otherwise manage tabs from my desktop for my phone?

Starting in 30 minutes! youtube.com/live/bVREyTm...

Confirmed the Android emulator runs on my Windows machine in tandem with a @tauri.app. All ready for the live stream tomorrow!

As promised: My thoughts on a recent article on The Chronicle of Higher Education. It's about damn time for colleges to prioritize content accessibility. 🔥 And I resent those wanting to wait for Trump to deregulate. Choosing to wait is choosing to discriminate. ashleemboyer.com/blog/college...

Decided to give @vivaldibrowser.bsky.social a whirl to see how the tabs as synced between devices... and seems I jumped right into a #hugops situations 🥲

Checking out OPFS and file system APIs on stream today. Starting in 30 minutes, hop in!
