Hopefully I can make it tonight!

Congrats, Caidan!

Really enjoyed all the talks today @getpieces.bsky.social

I keep thinking about what @scott.hanselman.com said, “AI is making people who are not curious less curious.” 🧐

The Oregon State open source lab which provides hosting for hundred of open source projects, as well as research, resources, and support to countless other others is in trouble and we will shut down soon if they can’t find $250,000. Spread the word and donate give.fororegonstate.org/PL1Uv3Fkug

React Labs: View Transitions, Activity, and more – React The library for web and native user interfaces

Well this is exciting! React just added experimental support for View Transitions 🤩

Tried Kimchi from Costco. Very disappointed!

Really enjoyed @kevingoldsmith.bsky.social talk today! Engineering leaders are gardener.

Been reading a ton of technical documentation and they fall into two categories:

1. The kind that makes me think the author is a genius and I'm an idiot for not getting it.

2. The kind that makes me feel like the author is a friend sharing something cool and I'm a genius for getting it.

Done!

Look forward to the recordings!

Best of luck, Kyle!!!

not sure if you noticed I use a encrypted binary code for my GitHub handle…

For one second, I thought, “wow! That’s the power of voice classes.”

So fun!

I’m glad you rescheduled this so I can make it! I’ve using Astro for a few projects now. Look forward to your insights?

Can’t wait to read it!

I also love when the author draws graphics to visualize some concepts!

glad you did well!! I once had an experience where I added remove margin at root. It took me forever to debug my code and the realized the best practice is not necessary. :(

// Don't ❌ type Item = { type: 'page' | 'ellipsis' value?: number } // Do ✅ type Item = | { type: 'page', value: number } | { type: 'ellipsis' }

An easy way to improve your TypeScript skills is to learn about "discriminated unions".

It's the best way to narrow types on an array of objects, like events, or in the case of my take home: pagination.

By narrowing on `type`, TS knows whether `value` exists on the object or not, no need for `?.`

I see a few familiar faces!

Wow! I didn’t realize they have so much caffeine.

Happy Lunar New Year! 🧧 🧧 🧧

Haha! Do you like it?

Meta is making big changes to hiring practices, sources told me and @mikeisaac.bsky.social

- no more teams devoted to Diversity, Equity and Inclusion
- no diversity preference for working with outside minority owned supplier businesses
- no goals for hiring women and minorities

Happy new year, Cassidy!

What does the title #DesignEngineer mean to you?

I'm putting together an article and I'd love to hear what your thoughts are, especially in relation to #DesignSystems. Boost for reach? 💜

🎊 Happy New Year!

I discovered a lot of very cool dev stuff in 2024, from libraries to devtools to educational resources. Thought it’d be fun to share them all, to help kickstart your 2025!

Let’s go through the list. 🧵
