Food for thought: Expertise is better shown than told. The more someone claims expertise, the less I believe them. Now more than ever in the age of grift, I encourage us all to put up or shut up.

I am getting increasingly frustrated for services I pay for: which simply removed the way to contact support with a non-trivial problem. They added an AI bot. Which bot is sh*t and cannot fix my issue. All these companies patting themselves on the back while I plan to leave

Friendly reminder that “remote work” and “work from home” are not synonyms! You can work from home as a remote worker, but you don’t have to. Remote work is all about picking the right work environment for you. Might be a coffee shop, a home office, a library, or a rented office!

I've been a behind-the-scenes "tech" conductor for remote workshops in the last week - almost 24 hours of it! And the big pains lately is: @figma.com Figjam's Start Open Session that creates the link to anyone to join without having to create a Figma account... well...

Pleased with this little app I built, which BlueSky migrants may find useful! I use it every day.

Today is my last day at Docker. I really appreciated the opportunity to work with the people there, and I certainly learned a lot. I'll be looking for a role that sponsors non-US visas next. If you have any leads that I could be a good fit for, holler at your goose! DMs are open 💕

I spoke to a talented junior scientist who just got a good faculty job offer in the US and they told me “well I wouldn’t move to 1930s Germany either” so that’s how that’s going

Did you know that vertical positioning of colons isn’t constant? It varies based on typeface and/or surrounding characters. There are three basic conventions: 1. Always set to baseline 2. Aligned with character height 3. Aligned based on context #Design #Typography #Fonts #UI #Code #FrontEnd

lol my coworker and I have now made possibly one of the coolest pipelines for design system library analytics across code and design and I’m really mad that I can’t show any of it. Data at that level will probably never be approved by corp. How do y’all get permission to share your stuff?

I don’t care if your job isn’t accessibility or DEI specific. Today, make it your job. Every single one of you, make it your job. Learn everything you can and integrate it into what you do. I promise there’s something you can do. Do something, be fucking brave.

After I read this, I want to crawl into a hole and throw my phone and computer out the window. “The average person’s experience with technology is one so aggressive and violative that I believe it leaves billions of people with a consistent low-grade trauma.”

Elevators with buttons killed the “elevator operator” job completely At the same time, spreadsheet apps like Excel did not kill accounting jobs - they helped create more Understand why each happened and you understand how innovation can both reduce and increase employment/jobs

Stupid free idea, the marketing/comms could use this to publish their company updates instead of 'internal company pages'💀

As usual, Danny hits the nail on the head. 🔨 I’ve had to fight this temptation myself. Cursor changes 50 lines and the lazy part of my brain says "I’m sure it’s fine, just accept the changes". Seems like a great way to plateau in your growth as a developer. 😬

GitHub was down, hard, for an hour. These kinds of outages are increasingly unacceptable: a company’s code repo is increasingly treated as infra. Repo down —> no deploys possible (even to resolve outages!) GitHub doesn’t have infra-level reliability tho, ignoring this reality.

One thing Newsom should do right now is a statewide rent freeze. They did it during lockdown, they can do it again. And yes, statewide, because every landlord within 200 miles of LA is eagerly waiting for fire refugees to move into their area.

How are people doing, you know, the things? All of them. Another year of wishing I could relate to “new year, new, refreshed me” but, once again, I just have an extended taste for hibernation that’s reminded me it’s my true calling in life. Can we pick up the things in Spring?
