I answered partly on the other platform before seeing this. Summarizing my take, iteration's part of the job, every job has grunt work, and this kind of work can be how you show new engineers what bad practices look like and how to research solutions. But it must be enforced and treated as learning.

Cmoe join us next week!

Blimey, genuinely good thing happening in the tech industry?!

Atmosphere accounts get my vote as it helps describe what it is pretty well. It sits above all our surface accounts, and plays into the AT Proto name and branding. Good for buy-in.

I'll be in all week

Hey! I'll be there this year!

Note to self: open a workout facility where the only equipment are self-turning cars designed to be pushed along tracks of varying complexity, ranging from short and straight to winding worse than Nürburgring.

Hell of a workout.

Finally!

Note to self: starting a new job with lots of new, cool, and interesting aspects doesn't mean it has to become your whole personality overnight, no matter what your ADHD says.

March Madness CSS Drama! /s

Not that it's going to bump my standings, but something might be up with the bracket? I saw Julia won, but it's saying Adam is moving on in my bracket? @syntax.fm @w3cj.com

Yesterday was my last day at Deno.

From today, I'll be cheering the talented team on from outside the org.

This also means that I'm now considering my next move in the DX/DevRel/Technical marketing space.

@stevehofstetter.bsky.social hey, my mother-in-law and I are huge fans! I'm bringing her to your show tonight at the Funny Bone. Tried to reach you in DMs, and all good if you say no, but could you wish her a happy 75th birthday for me after your set? It'd mean the world to me! DM me if you're down.

Considering there's five levels of tie-breaking, yeah, unsurprising.

I know you're out there.

You little JavaScript gremlins, you!

I know you're remoting into my machine, changing my code so the default value on my select won't render!

I know you're making that StackBlitz example work even when it refuses to in my VSCode!

I know you're out there! I'll find you!

Another by Captian Mark, albeit lighter on production. I loved the days when I'd come home from school just in time to catch an episode! I didn't know about Secret City, I wish I had.

🎉 Looking for new work.

15 years front-end dev + Design Systems specialist.

I help folks build, maintain & transform design systems.

I'm also available for focused projects, front-end builds, codebase modernisation.

Short to long term.

Let's chat - stu@alwaystwisted.com

reposts appreciated <3

Fellows Dems, it is time make @bsky.app our primary social media link and posting place and leave X behind.

It is time now.

I haven't used Warp in that way yet, but I'm down for an experiment. I've used them mainly for assistance, not as full-on agents.

I will say, as that one person using Warp, I'm on a team that uses it not as a terminal but as an agentic editor in lieu of VS Code or Zed.

Right now I'm using effectively the stock macOS bash terminal with oh-my-zsh configured. My VS Code and Warp are set up to use that same profile. I'll reach for the latter to kill processes or handle tricky grep statements.

Thank you!! We'll see! 😏

Thanks! And no worries! I've got friends repping the Mets, Braves, and Rays who've said the same. As long as you're repping the Fish when we're hanging out! 😉

Let's play ball A bit of a homecoming, and a hell of an onboarding.

I forgot to post here, I'm a month into my new gig as Senior Software Engineer for the Miami Marlins.

Brevard students will be disciplined for ICE walkouts despite state guidance In Brevard schools, walkouts during the instructional day are not permitted, and standard attendance and disciplinary policies will apply, a BPS official said.

I will not discourage students from doing what's best for their education, but an absence is just that, nothing more. They can't escalate a punishment that won't follow you after graduation just because of the message. It's about damn time for some good trouble.

I accidentally nerd-sniped myself and built a quick CodePen to quickly preview how your logo will look in different contexts: codepen.io/phebert/pen/...

New tech industry unspoken rule: all product announcement messaging must be preempted by clips from musical theater, either from film or on stage.
