Got the chance to chat with Jeremy Ashley after @commityourcode.bsky.social #CYC2025 & we got to yapping, where we got to know each other better & talked about freelancing, our respective journeys, & more! (no peace sign coffee chat picture this time around, you'll just have to imagine it😅)
Anyone who missed out on the incredible speakers at the Commit Your Code 2025 conference can check out the Dallas Software Developers channel to watch some of the recordings. #CYC2025

Good morning! I knew I’d be struggling with the conference come down today. I was already laughing to myself about some memories and then this comes through. The coolest kid in all the land thinks I’m cool! My day is made. 😎

The back of a silver laptop covered in stickers. They show my love of Javascript, communities, pets, and words of affirmation. The new stickers are a cute shiba with hexagonal glasses, a bow tie, and a laptop; a frog catching a fly with the text debugging underneath him; and a chicken in a yellow circle with the text free range developers surrounding them.
Laptop is updated with new stickers after #cyc2025! 💜
A huge thanks and shoutout to @dthompsondev.bsky.social, Yum! Brands, sponsors, and speakers for helping make #CYC2025 possible! Time to rate the speakers' presentations, follow up with new friends, and think about how to use everything new I learned.
Collection of tech swag consisting of t-shirts, tote bag, stickers, and a pin along with various snacks and bracelets laid on top of a bed
Obligatory @commityourcode.bsky.social swag drop (ft some snacks I got) #CYC2025
Lovely bracelets thanks to @roxyrodbeck.bsky.social, cute shiba stickers thanks to @abbeyperini.dev, and cool pokemon cards thanks to @ghiblimagic.bsky.social ☺️💜
What a great first time at the Commit Your Code conference! #CYC2025
Already having #CYC2025 withdrawals 😔 Amazing opportunity to learn from so many people in tech, can't wait for next year! Shout out to @dthompsondev.bsky.social and everyone for planning all of this!
I had the absolute best time at #cyc2025 the past few days. My heart is so full. I'd add pictures but it won't let me select multiple photos right now lol so I'll have to add them throughout the week. But I have the best friends.
I'll share talk recaps on LinkedIn next week!
And that’s a wrap on @commityourcode.bsky.social #CYC2025 🙌 My heart feels so full from all the awesome peeps I got to hang out with ❤️ Bittersweet to leave, but super grateful for all the memories ☺️
Tuned in to @mayanwolfe talk! "Little Bobby Tables: Understanding Data Validation and Sanitization"
Let's go!!! #100Devs #CYC2025 #CommitYourCode
Time to see our boy Mike chen yap about how devs can be big brained like him and use the scientific method to develop a deeper understanding of code.
But playfulness aside, honestly great talk about maximizing learning & intuiton! #commityourcode #cyc2025 #developercommunity
@chenmike.com talking about the scientific method and using it to learn software engineering faster - Predict, Run, Results, and Takeaways @commityourcode.bsky.social #CYC2025
Was so good to see bob fornal in the flesh after so many years! Hes a super supportive member of the dev community and overall a great dude with an even cooler beard 😎. Cool to see him talk about testing live #commityourcode #cyc2025 #developercommunity
Importance of unit testing is so often understated, especially among people who are just starting in tech. Great talk by Andrew Smit! #cyc2025
According to Jacob Orshalick, "80% to 90% of all data is unstructured."
Structured data is golden for developers, so it's fascinating to see how LLMs are now being used instead of regex for parsing complex business data like lease agreements.

Woo the preprint copies made it in time to hand out at #CYC2025 🥳
Love how it turned out. Looks great printed
CSS animations was always the bane of my existence, so i really appreciate this insightful talk @shookcodes.bsky.social #cyc2025
Really cool how migrating a company's entire codebase lead to so many improvements for both the actual application and the developers onboarding as well! Really interesting talk @cmgriffing.bsky.social #cyc2025
@cmgriffing.bsky.social talking about why GitKraken Desktop switched to Typescript and the challenges during migration @commityourcode.bsky.social #CYC2025
TypeScript won. If you want typed javascript, that’s the choice. If you made a different choice, migrating is worth it. #cyc2025

So much to watch, so little time.
Day 2 of @commityourcode.bsky.social is on the way!
#CYC2025 #CommitYourCode
Enjoyed learning how to build Spring applications and connect these AI models with real enterprise data and tools with @danvega.dev Really invaluable stuff! #cyc2025
Let's go 100devs! Was good catching jasmine vo's talk about simplifying your component library 😁 #commityourcode #cyc2025 #developercommunity
Stop asking why it’s built weird, ask how do we want the code to work now?
If it feels like a bug, it’s a bug. Even if it worked right to spec last year.

Watching Dan talk about MCP and #Spring AI at #CommitYourCode #cyc2025
@jasminepvo.bsky.social talking about foundation principles, building blocks, and implementation with scalable component libraries @commityourcode.bsky.social #CYC2025
This conference is my follow list IRL. It was really cool to see @swizec.com in person, talking about HTMX and TANSTACK. #cyc2025
Today's keynote by Aaron Francis summed up in one word: "Inspiring!"
What a start to Day 2 of #CYC2025.
