2 weeks into One Meal a Day I can clearly see how much more focused I am before I eat Which leads me to a scary thought: What if the only reason I’ve been a night owl my whole life is because I eat three meals a day so I never stop digesting

I like “feed two birds with one scone” but what’s the equivalent for “I don’t have a dog in this fight”
Rolldown's wasm build just got significantly faster in browsers thanks to @broooooklyn.bsky.social! One challenge of native bundlers is that they have to ship and run as wasm in browser environments. Some bundlers like rspack doesn't even support this due to the complexity it involves.
you can always tell when these are new because there's no dan brown books yet
I thought a neighbour installed a huge red letterbox, but the local council set up a street library and I love it. The sign says 'Street Library: Take a book, give a book, share a book' The URL is streetlibrary.org.au
Years of Twitter has programmed a panic response when I open the app and it says 30+ notifications But here that just means 30 people liked a post
once my team spent a while debugging some data mismatch and eventually found somewhere I had hardcoded a value (that's correct 90% of the time) right below a comment saying // TODO: choose more intelligently
Search your code for any occurrences of "TODO: this query is fast for now, probably want to improve locking around this when it gets big" and fix them. This PSA brought to you by Discover being slow today.

Leave when it's going well — Unspoken Tech S1E5

I had a whole post how tech is leverage and enabled me (and millions) to achieve social mobility, all while I was scolded by luminaries in the ecosystem for years about doing it wrong and not caring about poor people; that radicalised me to never let others influence my opinion about emerging tech
This was a real thing that happened in Canada: a Real Country

Execs who say things like this simply do not understand pain I will show them
This is immediately where my mind goes when execs say that users' biggest pain point is lack of being educated about the company's offerings
I have no more interest being on a “free speech platform” than I do being at a “no social rules” party

Huge win from @franzanth.bsky.social creating a Content Scraper Blocklist: bsky.app/profile/cont... It's a blocklist for the kinds of engagement bait accounts that repost stolen content, often with misleading captions.
I hate every time this goes around because it’s so obviously three colors here? What if you hue shift it to green and red? You gonna try to argue yellow is one of those?
This explains a lot of silly arguments I’ve had in my life. ismy.blue
Unpopular opinion: they're all just "tests" and they all do the same thing. No one agrees on the difference between unit or integration or e2e or contract or smoke or acceptance or functional or ui or component or regression or sanity or beta or white-box or black-box or explor
Settle an argument: what is an integration test, and is that the same as an end-to-end test? Secondly, is testing a React component a "unit test"?
