@YouTube I know you know I'm a premium member when you show me an embedded video on another site, so why you still showing me adverts? We both know what cookies are and how they are used.

@diegohaz Well it’s been fun setting a skew transform on the parent and then offsetting the skew by applying the same but opposite skew on the child

@BillyPacMan The fact that you require a plan must mean you are in some hot water?

Me: "I want to add X to our pipeline"
The man: "Ok cool - what is your proposal?"
Me: "Here is my proposal: Y"
The man: "No, not like that"
Me: "OK, how should I do it?"
The man: "You tell me"
Me: "I just did"
The man: "No, not like that"

How do I break this cycle lol

I'm not worried about AI replacing me. Github AI is currently too scared to review .scss syntax. I helped shape .scss syntax.

@natemcgrady If this is supposed to be a joke, well done. If you're going to use Tailwind, this would actually be one of the better ways to do it. So the actual joke is Tailwind itself.

@softwincn The physical QWERTY keyboard is a must for me. Do you have any white ones left?

A recruiter from @Atlassian has reached out to me twice the past week trying to get me to apply for a job. I told them I applied 2 years ago and found the process too daunting (it was like 8 stages). It actually felt good to say this even though it's shooting myself in the foot.

I booked 2 additional days off work, just so I could work on the features I've been wanting to work on for months, without anyone telling me it's not a priority and to work on something else. Suck it.

4 years ago I wrote an article discussing some scalable CSS concepts https://t.co/eOVgQgqMGQ. Today I don't see any similar conversations happening and it makes me sad :(

I'm 34 and have previously worked in the financial industry. I have never heard the term "payment instrument". Am I just an idiot? Is this a term people really use?

Seen a project where the CSS is defined like `.align-content-left` and referenced in the JS like `styles.alignContentLeft`, with some magic happening in nextjs to map the two different conventions together. What are some people thinking? What is wrong with `.alignContentLeft` ?

Occasionally the two music pieces I composed for my music GCSE exam will pop into my head.
