@ChShersh As the adage goes, wisdom comes with age

[Gallows of Ghent @GallowsofGhent]

@ChShersh More like, when someone says it's a non-issue and they close the jira ticket without a code change

@steinkobbe It's like a reverse "First they Came"

They came first from the perspective of physics and I didn't speak up because I knew nothing about physics.

Then they came from the perspective of me a l33t gamer!!!!

@ChShersh UI is so satisfying. The only thing more fun imo is game dev, but a nice UI is hard to beat.

@ChShersh Nice Fallout vibes on the font though 🫦

@ChShersh @metruzanca I work in a pretty chaotic environment, with node modules ofc, so using worktrees is a godsend. The only annoying part is locally ignored env vars that I have to copy over manually on each new tree, but still figuring out an auto-copy workflow.

@ChShersh I'm doing this with FP using Functional Programming Made Easier and it's already helped a lot! I've e.g. found a real use case for mapping data using tuples which ended up being more readable and easier to use.

@gabagoolmarx Simple but effective narrative framing. Walt is the protagonist, and Skyler plays kind of an antagonist by opposing him & digging into what he's keeping a secret. So you root for Walt and dislike Skyler for it. And then you justify your dislike instead of recognising the framing.

@ChShersh That's fair. I think to me the killer feature would be: it's JS (so easy adoption for web devs), and you can prevent dumb runtime errors through red text in-editor.

@ChShersh @FunOCaml @davesnx @ahrefs React is great. The second slide should convince you of its simplicity. People complain about hooks, but if you know useState and useEffect, you honestly know 95% of React and can build basically everything.

[Gallows of Ghent @GallowsofGhent]

@ChShersh I believe

@ChShersh Composing is so addictive. Once you try it there's just no going back honestly.

[Gallows of Ghent @GallowsofGhent]

@clovertalent @ambiguousamphib Looks pretty ambiguous to me 🤔

@ChShersh Reading is re-reading. The same person can read the same book twice back to back and learn new things each time. The same book can be read again later with new perspectives and the reader can learn new things again. Never ends, so don't be fooled in thinking once is ever enough.
