Saw this on Reddit, and while I’m also 😱 at the phrase “vibe coding tools” in a real job ad, I’m just as 🤦‍♂️ about the line below. I think we missed a dev law (call it Ham’s Law!?) that any manager who inherits a design system will inevitably ruin it (or continue the previous manager’s ruining of it.)

The problem with most machine-based random number generators is that they’re not TRULY random, so if you need genuine randomness it is sometimes necessary to link your code to an external random process like a physical noise source or the current rate of US tariffs on a given country.

🪝 Time For A NEW Custom Hook! Simplify your stateful routing with this useQueryParam() hook which works like useState(). Given a URL query param name, it defaults to the param value or undefined. Swap out navigate() for replace() to preserve browsing history! 👉 No more circular state management!

Let's talk about spacers. A novice's tool in my opinion. They're fine when you're in a rush to market but generally if you need to position something by treating the negative space around it like positive space, you're doing it wrong.

Trump betrayed America on J6 and anyone who voted for him after betrayed America as well. Doesn’t really matter why they did it. Ask any German who voted for Hitler how much anyone cares that the Holocaust wasn’t what they voted for.

IC’s and Senior Leadership ask questions. Staff+ Engineers get answers… and make stickers to hand out at launch. Can’t stress enough how mission-critical that second part is.

This right here is an example of why color-mix() is the best thing added to CSS since flexbox. I’ve had my personal design system setup this way for years and it’s been so much easier to manage!

A republican watches a fox eat a chicken a day for 6 days. Reasonable person: “It’s gunna eat another chicken tomorrow.” Republican: “lol so you’re a mind reader?” Do these people ever get tired of looking like complete idiots, or are they fully immune to self-reflection?

Just discovered my shadow has been secretly auditioning for ninja movies behind my back. Caught it practicing karate chops when I wasn't looking. Now it's demanding 15% of my salary as its talent manager. The betrayal is real.

Random (probably dumb) question for the internet: does always narcissism maladaptively emerge from rejection dysphoria? Another, def dumb question: if I started referring to my followers as “hameeties” (pronounced ha-MAY-eh-tees), how many would I lose? Satiate my spontaneous curiosity today BSky!

“Conceding” that Trump’s win was “the greatest comeback in American history” is like finding out that your cancer, that was in remission for 4 years, is back and worse than last time and then saying, “wow what a mandate, loved existing with y’all but my body wants what it wants so time to yeet”

Don’t fall for the Totalitangerine sending you a cut of the DOGE “savings”. Everyone who pays taxes should want that money to be spent. Real savings should result in lower taxes for the middle class. Not a one-time kickback, or lower taxes for wealthy techno-barons who don’t pay their share.
