Frontend developer working in the radio and media world.
Absolutely bonkers movie. Metal AF, relentless action, hilarious dialog.
Just know, not every workplace has gone all-in on AI, some have approached in a practical and pragmatic manner. It's a tool that might be useful, not the be-all and end-all of software engineering
Salesforce's Slack Code... of course, the issue was there weren't enough cooks in the kitchen.
Adlkj, Imnnld, Hxrrtoo, Plquiid. Man, Amazon just has the best brands.
So about four years into "you'll be left behind if you don't use AI!" ...anyone? Anyone left behind? Anyone losing business because they didn't jam AI into their product? 🦗🦗🦗
Listen, if you decide to schedule a client meeting during lunch in the meeting room that's right next to the table-tennis table, don't come storming out and complaining it's too loud.
I had the PR for this pop into my inbox a few weeks back, was cool to listen to it on the way to work this morning. Especially like the ads for local Hawkins businesses. #strangerthings #wsqk
One of my favourite things about the Zen browser is that it opens email links in a sort of overlay window with the option of actually making it a tab.
Not being from a CS background these are the things I didn't think I'd be looking into as a frontend developer: 1. Reverse Polish Notation 2 Shunting-yard algorithms
Youngest son playing with Lego: 'Let's make a 3D plane!' Oldest son: 'What? We're already 3D, I'm 3d, you're 3D'
I gotta say, every time I see posts (here, LinkedIn, etc) with AI generated images, my eyes glaze over
Sooo, reading this another way, in light of the current state of things...UK companies looking to invest in hiring predictive-text apps instead of employees. I think this might work out? /sarcasm www.theregister.com/2025/01/15/u...
Half of UK companies to invest in AI instead of staff
Rising costs blamed, although any excuse to do more with less

I mean, SPAs are all good and everything, but if I've got to scroll for like a minute to get to the end, maybe you need some pages in there...
TIL the TypeScript compiler doesn't like yarn's pnp situation, it really wants those node_modules there
I used to always use NoSQL databases in my projects (MongoDB, etc) but since using Drizzle, SQL has some of the sting taken out of it and I'm really into having these tables!
Every time I get to work on my personal project, I'm really happy using Zed. Just wanted to share
I'm not the first to say this, I won't be the last...just because you can talk on speakerphone doesn't mean you always need to talk on speakerphone
Task today: plan out replacing MUI and styled components with Chakra in a part of the project #frontenddeveloper #webdev
Looked up some open source flight simulator and find FlightGear... For three life of me, I can't land a 737
I've been messing around with other editors...Zed and Pulsar. Keep running into issues with both but like the look more than VS Code!
Trying to survive that time of year when Nightshift turns on at the 4pm sunset 🥲
