Today marks the end of my first week as a full time UI Engineer at @LinkedIn ! Even virtually, I’m amazed at this wonderful community of new hires. So excited to work with these (and many more) wonderful people 💙 #LinkedInLife

ME (sits like this): Huh, why does my back hurt?
Wow I'm so glad that I invested in a Herman Miller Aeron ergonomic chair.

Was looking up the precise definitions of some HTTP error codes in the @MozDevNet web docs when I got to the 418 response… TIL

It’s yearly self-review season, and you know what that means! I have of course forgotten every single thing I did over the course of the last year

I have learned the hard way that I should’ve been taking notes as I went along

Instead of acting like the a11y community is nagging us to help a tiny minority of users, we should thank them for nailing down what a text input *means*, what a combo box *means*, what a button *means*.

It was wonderful to hear @JanelleCShane speak as part of #EngWeek ! Loved the takeaway of being aware of what machine learning algorithms are actually learning - and that it may not be what the programmers thought it would be! 💻

I can’t be the first person to have done this but it’s the best way I can express how I’m feeling about this code change right now 😅

I can’t believe there’s this constant debate of whether or not CSS is real programming. I’m watching a recorded meeting of someone from the CSS team explaining upcoming additions to our libraries and the amount of work it takes to wrangle class inheritance... I can only imagine

😱😍 this is everything
Serious productivity boost for reading code on GitHub. 1️⃣. Go to any repo you are interested in on GitHub. 2️⃣. Replace "github" with "github1s" (one s) in the browser address bar. 3️⃣. Enjoy browsing code like you would in VS Code. This is huge 🔥
