#StealThisIdea: A capybara-themed energy drink with its energy blend designed for both physical and social energy. You’ll have me hupping into the nearest convenience store to buy a 6-pack of the Blue Razz-bara flavor. Maybe a yuzu lemon flavor could be the more “laidback energy” blend

This week, we asked neurodivergent Gophers to share what being part of this space means to them. From finding connection and understanding, to feeling seen and valued for how they think, these reflections are a powerful reminder that the strength of the #golang community lies in its diversity! 💙

Fascinating design system question today: "We have many one-off hex colors that don't match any design system color tokens. How can we efficiently find the nearest color token?" Turns out with a little RGB color math, you can do exactly that. distance = √((r2 - r1)² + (g2 - g1)² + (b2 - b1)²)

By the way, both women who ran for president were right. They predicted this moment would happen. Says something very disturbing about our country that many still think they’re unrealistic or dramatic, when they were and are, in fact, correct.
