Argh, Windows... The apps and windows seemingly random behavior opening and moving between monitors. *annoyed sigh*

I am the destroyer of useEffect. I ruthlessly cull the many instances in each component I touch. Also, please stop. I have enough on my hands making certain the node_module black hole doesn't kill us first.

I probably don't talk about it enough, but we made a package to help in building up a changelog and handling releases. We made it for @tauri.app as we needed to release multiple Rust crates and JavaScript npm packages all from the same repo, coordinated. github.com/jbolda/covec...

Went (indoor) rock climbing for the first time in probably more than a decade. Pretty certain I blacked out on the way out and got hit by a truck because oh my do I hurt... Brought the kiddos along though and they enjoyed it 😁

It baffles me the number of things that appear in my head, but promptly disappear before I can even add it to the TODO list.

The ecosystem is coming along! Looking forward to try out more local-first libraries, and this is a great reference for it.

Surprise — we’re turning 20 later this year. We've impacted millions of users and 300K+ developers—from startups to enterprises to OSS. We never chased the spotlight, just the hardest problems— and after 20 years, boy, do we have stories. 😅 Follow along at #Frontside20

Less than 40 hours for this stream! Excited to explore more alternative rendering options in @tauri.app. Looking at chromium with Bill! www.youtube.com/live/6SO_hRD...

I added home row mods on my split keyboard weeks ago. And... have yet to actually try them.

I reread through the docs again this weekend, and saw a note about `--force`. That actually seems to work relatively well. I spun up a POC that I had been meaning to do. Made some changes in `node_modules`, stopped and started the server with `vite --force`, and did that for every change.

What is the vibe on `patch-package` or equivalent within Vite? It seems like it is still an expected use case, but with all the caching, it is rather difficult to muck around in `node_modules` to test things out. I feel like there is a flag or something that I am missing to improve that workflow.

Catching up on all of the DMs and messages today, and prepared to be overwhelmed tomorrow. 🙃 I suppose that is better than the alternative of forgetting about and accidentally ignoring folks! (Which if I have, sorry!)

the doge teens destroying the general services administration's magnetic tape backups because they think it's like a vhs of aladdin 2: the return of jafar might be the niche thing that kills me
