I don’t just use AI, AI uses me.

Ugh...

Sometimes my favorite place on the web is about:blank.

I can’t be the only one who always thought a Magic card looked like a potato with sprinkles….right?

Do you have any favorite articles (about any subject) that you think about or re-read a lot?

That is good to me as well as that.

I updated my "Setting up a Brand New Mac for FE Development" article. I've been keeping it up to date for 5 years. :) www.taniarascia.com/setting-up-a...

When you don't touch your domain and DNS and SSL settings for 7 years and then everything expires and you have to remember how DNS works again.

Someone please convince me that date-fns isn't inferior to Moment.js. The API is harder to use, and you have to add an additional library (date-fns-tz) for the basic functionality of converting dates to local timezone.

ChatGPT is telling people I run a QA Bootcamp now.

Excellent introduction to SVGs by @joshwcomeau.com! Very informative and interactive. www.joshwcomeau.com/svg/friendly...

I added a color picker to my blog. (Procrastinating instead of writing). Which color looks best to you? tania.dev

How is it that I’ve never interacted with a political post on Bluesky but my entire feed is political posts? Do I need to switch to Mastodon or something to keep up with the JS folks?

Is there a big benefit in updating my blog from Gatsby to Astro?

Why do developers of widely-used open-source projects insist on drastically changing the APIs so I can't just easily update packages? Looking at you, ESLint.

I have two goals: - Write as little code as possible - Delete as much code as possible

I have strong opinions about using test() instead of it() for tests.

I’ve started gardening and landscaping in my free time. It feels like refactoring the earth. It’s nice to have a hobby away from a screen.

ChatGPT is really good at making sure your front end can handle any possible combination of characters...recently, I just got back the letter "s" repeated 300 times, and another one that just returned \t over and over.

This is what my website looked like in Safari for the last year or so since I used `light-dark()` and CSS nesting.

Ever just realize your website looks like absolute shit on Safari but you never checked before?

I've had a tech blog for 10 years, and apparently my top performing query on google is "animorphs".

Are people still using Tailwind in production applications? I feel like there's something I'm not understanding about how this works...if the designer decides that the border radius across your site should change, does this mean a find+replace all across potentially hundreds of pages?

Who is still using moment.js in TYOL 2025? Every time I try to use date-fns I just switch back to moment because I think the API is easier.

I looked at Twitter for the first time in like a year and I don't see a single dev related post on my feed lol
