NPM down or is it just me?

ICYMI...sharing again because I am quite chuffed with this one. Talking with Robby Russell was really great, including finding out that we grew up not too far from one another! How fun is that?! Give it a listen, LMK what you think!

It is 100% carrying water for the opposition to participate in this collective delusion that Dems for some reason need to answer for every teen who throws a rock rather than hold the Trump admin accountable for intentionally creating chaos and breaking the law to stoke violence. They are in charge.

📻 Tune in to join @robbyonrails.com‬ for this week's episode as Melanie Sumner discusses the importance of aligning Figma APIs with component code to bridge the designer-engineer gap. 🎧 Listen here! maintainable.fm/episodes/mel...

I was recently a guest on @maintainable.fm and the episode is out! And I don't hate it! (^_^) I think 1.2x or 1.3x speed to listen to it at! I listen via Spotify, but it's available on the website too: maintainable.fm/episodes/mel... #A11y #Accessibility

I’m excited for EmberFest this year! Every year really but especially this year!

Can someone translate this translations for me? Anti Kicking Quilt Clip? From Yamibuy.com: NaChuan-Home Quilt Clip Anti Kicking Quilt Sheet Drying Fixer Green 6Pcs u.yamibuy.com/30314011

SF you ok?

My iPhone & HomePod mini. It’s great except this one thing…Playing my Spotify. This Bluetooth connection stuttering doesn’t happen with any other device or app. Just Spotify. Makes me wonder if Apple devices are antagonistically programmed to do this if it’s a competing product. Sus.

I was hate watching The Blacklist and thought, why am I doing this to myself? Now I’m watching a k-drama and I’m much happier. 😂

Incredibly verklempt by today’s Letter Boxed.

I really think that advocating for any AI is a mistake.

Netflix really hates it when you try to binge. 😳

I’ve had this rule that I won’t read an article if it has a click bait title (like, “People have a rift for this one reason”) What it’s really done is increasingly reduce my consumption of anything in the Apple News app, lol

Chicago 6 mos of the year: 3pm, time for dark Chicago the other 6 mos of the year: 9pm, ok maybe we can sunset now

I was talking with my husband about how I would architect a more useful recipe/menu-planning app, and after I described the algo variables he said I was looking for delayed differential equations. He then goes on to tell me about the brilliant mathematician that taught him it in college. 😳

We officially have a high school graduate! He’s off to party, we are off to home for bourbon, Department Q, and an early night!

“Hipsters were in the Vietnam war era” He meant hippies 💀

“I’m cheese expert Liz Thorpe…” You’re living the dream, Liz.

Thoughts and prayers to AWS on call RN

Lessons my son says he’s learned from me: - “make it work then make it better” - “enough drinking and swearing and you can do anything” I’m so fucking proud. 🥹

It happened. Y’all dissing CSS for so long for not being a “real programming language” for so long they got pissed and added if() statements. Good job our lives are now about to be…not better.

I started watching The Blacklist again, kind of remembering the first bit but not remembering how it ended. Now I’m just hate watching it because I really should have looked it up first and I’m kind of angry that this show had so many seasons. I’m not even through season 5 yet. #TheBlacklist

EmberFest has always been held at such lovely locations!! “…An Italian palazzo, a Dutch theatre, and an Irish chocolate factory are only some of the stunning places that welcomed us all.” This year’s venue will be The Royal Flemish Theatre!! emberfest.eu

The OG strawberry episode on Trails to Oishii with Kailene Falls is the only one that matters. IYKYK.
