@_rossmoody love it Ross! I see this is written in Swift. How do you like the language so far?

[Jeremy Stuart Barnes @JeremyStuBarnes]

@_rossmoody i.e. we created some abstractions, that will probably make this harder for you to use in the long run.

[Jeremy Stuart Barnes @JeremyStuBarnes]

@_rossmoody I love this. I really think all CS teaching could benefit from more of an emphasis on visual learning.

[Jeremy Stuart Barnes @JeremyStuBarnes]

@_rossmoody I was literally drawing out recursive call stacks yesterday to understand the order in which a recursive function is pushed and popped in the memory stack:
function factorial(n){
if(n==1) return 1;
return n * factorial(n-1);
}

@renakuai Glad to hear you're digging it! UX design can be a slog, especially when figuring out where and how it fits into the business and persuading others. It's good to have creative outlets to learn and grow. Hit me up if you're ever looking for a change of pace 🙌

[Jeremy Stuart Barnes @JeremyStuBarnes]

Connection means care. Care can be tough love. It means telling people the truth for their longterm development and being invested in them as an individual, not as a tool for productivity. Ruinous empathy is not connection.

[Jeremy Stuart Barnes @JeremyStuBarnes]

Many leaders talk about building trust. It's the lifeblood of a company or team that keeps it going when the odds are against it. I've thought a lot about what trust is comprised of. The 3 qualities I continue to come back to are:
- Character
- Competence
- Connection

[Jeremy Stuart Barnes @JeremyStuBarnes]

Competence is not intelligence. Intelligence plays a part, but can be misleading. Examine the correlation between the actions people take the outcomes they have.

The OS provides each process with Virtual Memory. Here's some fun C++ code I wrote that illustrates how multi-dimensional arrays are stored contiguously in VM (that then gets mapped back to physical memory!)

@JoshWComeau Josh, I'm so excited! Literally bought it in the first minute of being live. CSS here we go!

Helpful tip for security (that's easy to forget)
Authorization and Authentication on the frontend is about the user experience, but has no effect on privacy, data protection, and security.
When using JWT's, be sure to use httpOnly and not local storage or state management.

Almost ready for solar energy, thank you @NotionHQ for the best note taking space!

[Jeremy Stuart Barnes @JeremyStuBarnes]

One of the most important paradigms I've acquired recently for the achieving the best outcomes at work. Think in terms of:
1. Customer
2. Business
3. Team
4. Self

Many orgs inverse that list. It's the fastest way to ego-driven work and mindsets and chronic misalignment.

[Jeremy Stuart Barnes @JeremyStuBarnes]

The greatest challenge to building software is the people that build it. As I grow in my career, my focus shifts to operational excellence, a culture of candor, caring personally, and idea meritocracies. Because those are the companies that truly achieve.

It's really fascinating how many of the concepts, like hashing + identity, overlap with git + ssh concepts.

More and more I find the most valuable concepts of code are recognizing when "this" is another one of "those."

I can't wait until Prisma builds support for MongoDB.
