Ugh. Feeling glad I don’t desperately need a job immediately. The process of looking for one at the moment is just awful. 😮‍💨

I haven’t been on here for a while. Gosh it’s quiet. I guess Threads is really preferred these days?

It used to feel like this place was more for actually keeping up with people rather than just doom scrolling, but doom scrolling seems to be what the people want 😮‍💨

Linus Torvalds saying of lines of code as a metric for productivity, “Anybody who thinks that’s a valid metric is to stupid to work at a tech company”

He’s not wrong. Sadly you can get a long way being to stupid to work at a tech company. I’ve worked with people like that. 😮‍💨

Honestly, if you value content you've created always make sure it has a home outside of a single company. Always.

If you've been living under a rock, or simple don't care - here are a few reasons why, from my collection under a borrowed hashtag bsky.app/search?q=fig...

I can understand that. I think it should be possible, but whether they will or not? 🤷‍♀️ I think they’d have to do some things they’re not currently focused on or have the internal expertise for.

There seems to be much blaming of Angular, still. I don’t know if Nx will ever shake that association.

My palate cleanser contract this year was just what I needed. Pure Angular, solving real problems. It finished earlier this month but I'm in no rush to pick up the next thing. I feel like the market at the moment is in such a weird place. I'd like to see how the AI slop bubble settles first.

From the typescript community on Reddit: What happened to NX? Explore this post and more from the typescript community

Oof, this is pretty brutal. I see comments like these about Nx a lot. This particular Reddit post just seems to have corralled them all in one place.

Surprised to see so many recommending Moon these days. Historically it wasn't considered a serious rival. User-friendliness counts for a lot though 🤔

They're making the sunsets transgender!

Britta from commmunity meme and it says I can excuse genocide but I draw the line at Jimmy Kimmel getting canceled

Please don’t be this guy

One of the big problems of the right is that they don’t understand how their speech can be violence. They just believe anyone who’s different to them is an affront to be controlled and that control can never be violence itself, of course.

It’s things in the world like my previous post that has me not really giving much of a crap about the latest technology right now.

Tech bros will do what they do believing themselves to be above politics while C-suites fund more right wing lobbying marching gleefully into the arms of fascism. 😞

FBI Readies New War on Trans People “We’re looking at the entire spider web”

The FBI is about to declare trans people as “violent extremists”. We fucking told you this was coming. Kimmel is just the latest thing, there have been hundreds of dead canaries leading up to this. Some of you never read that poem and now you’re one line away from being rounded up yourselves. 🤬

Forms have been a nightmare so I’m looking first to seeing what happens with Signal Forms, but I also hate re-styling components. It’s fine when they’re completely self contained, but you almost always need to re-style when in use and ::ng-deep still feels like a hack.

guys, please chill out on the mod staff, they are overworked! They've had to spend the past 2 days banning trans people for the crime of saying "rest in piss" on TOP of their normal 40 hours a week spent banning anyone from Gaza!

Ask me in front of >100 people which bit of Angular is my favourite, my mind is always going to go blank. Not because of the situation but because I don’t have favourite parts of tools! I use them to build things. I just want them to allow me to do that with the least friction. 🤷‍♀️ #AngularConnect

Maybe, but considering the current FBI director doesn’t even have a background in law enforcement, I’m more inclined to Hanlon’s Razor.

e-6695 (Consumer protection) Keywords Censorship Credit cards Internet Pornography E-petition Initiated by Carmen Tam from Waterloo, Ontario Original language of petition: English Petition details Petition to the House of Commons Whereas: Mastercard, Visa, and other payment platforms have been leveraging their power over consumer ability to purchase legal content; In 2021, Mastercard changed its policies to regulate adult entertainment by preventing the use of its payment platform on numerous adult entertainment sites; As of July 2025, video game distribution service Steam now cites rule 15, that “adult only” content is not permitted on the platform if it goes against payment processor’s policies. Steam does not describe what content is defined as “adult only”; As of July 2025, video game distribution website Itch.io has “deindexed” all adult NSFW content from browse and search pages. Users that previously purchased legitimate video games cannot access games that have been removed; and This has set an unsettling precedent of corporate censorship, causing concern in video game development teams, including developers, voice actors, and artists in other creative fields as their livelihoods are in limbo. We, the undersigned, citizens of Canada, call upon the House of Commons to 1. Stop financial discrimination by payment platforms against legal goods and services; 2. Ensure transparency to consumers about content restrictions and the rationale behind them; and 3. Protect creators' rights to make legal adult content and ensure a fair appeals process for any penalized media.

The official Canadian Petition to reign in payment processor censorship has stalled out just under 10k signatures.

This is a reminder for Canadians, this is an OFFICIAL petition that will be responded to. Show your support in protecting our free speech!

every time there's political violence discourse i think about how jo cox was assassinated in broad daylight by a fascist who shouted "britain first" as he shot her, and now nine years later her party is dedicating every moment in power to placating the ideology of her murderer

Horst Wessel - Wikipedia

If they’re following the 1930s playbook, they could have been building him up to be the new Horst Wessel. I’ve seen folks on Threads make the comparison already.

Someone put the Jet2 jingle over the footage and I am definitely going to hell for how much I laughed out loud. 😅
