Our basement was destroyed by the Chicago floods this weekend. We lost a ton of memories, property, and essential appliances but the biggest loss is all of the equipment my wife needs to do their job. If you are able to help with a donation or a RT we greatly appreciate it โ˜ฎ๏ธโค๏ธ
My audio post-production company @HemCreekProd is my pride and joy. This past weekend, a flash flood swept through its base of operations and destroyed most of its audio equipment. Help with repairs is appreciated, whether with a donation or a retweet. Link to Go Fund Me is below

please stop naming variables related to time things like duration or interval foo({ revalidate: 60 }) - how often is this happening? you can't tell without looking at the docs foo({ revalidateInMs: 1000) - you can see it's once every second

Good managers hire to round out their team, and add new points of view. There is a difference between "10 years of experience" and "1 year of experience repeated ten times." A candidate with diverse job history is someone who has had to invent & reinvent their own playbook.

THIS. I'm lucky that I really love team building as part of my responsibilities. But I do feel like I have to constantly push my colleagues who aren't socialized as women to do the same, or similar, efforts. It's a constant battle that can be frustrating.

I don't feel like I have a lot of strong opinions in the industry. But estimation/pointing? It is easily my most loathsome activity as an engineer and leader. I am lucky that my team doesn't use them.
It's 2023, and Iโ€™m tired of debates about estimation and story points.

Do I like working the week between Christmas and New Years? Not particularly. However, this has been some of the most productive days I've had in weeks. I've written two new features, team documentation, a tech spec, and investigated a support queue issue. Wild!

It's stunning to me the number of devs who think AI will replace devs because AI can generate some code. Think about the % of your time you spend *writing code* vs everything else that goes into being a developer & being on a team. People will never become obsolete, folks.

It is a grave category error to confuse todayโ€™s large language model output for accurate knowledge The extent ChatGPT is ever correct is due to you already knowing the answer. It hallucinates nonsense just as easily as commonly-accepted fact, making it worthless as an educator
Um... I just had like a 20 minute conversation with ChatGPT about the history of modern physics. If I had this shit as a tutor during high school and college.... OMG. I think we can basically re-invent the concept of education at scale. College as we know it will cease to exist.

Color me not surprised y'all ๐Ÿ˜‚ Also, I'm an adventurous listener? I thought I kept it pretty consistent, but I do gravitate towards new artists/playlists.
