@trunarla That new GodLang?

[✨ Josh Branchaud 👻 @jbrancha]

@biomejs Is there a migration doc to move from prettier?

[Luke Taylor @LMCJT]

@fforres @biomejs @OpenAI Anyone got any guides or pointers for switching in a React Native project?

[Luke Taylor @LMCJT]

@florinpop17 I’ve been enjoying my G9 Odyssey for a couple years now and it was a great decision. The only issue I have is screen sharing can be tricky in some scenarios

[Luke Taylor @LMCJT]

@brettunhandled Right. The button and copy is more accessible

@ospfranco @mrousavy I’m going to investigate and do a poc on our app to benchmark it. Thanks

[Luke Taylor @LMCJT]

@mrousavy @ospfranco That’s a fair point. We’ve been using MMKV since I joined and only recently noticed issues due to performance improvements. But I was interested in the solution @ospfranco has created so I can look at a poc

[Luke Taylor @LMCJT]

@ospfranco The issues relate to the size of the data. But using mmkv my team has seen issues with async methods and the read/write to mmkv.

TIL a new superpower for when i do stacked branches:

git rebase -i --update-refs 🤯

and yes, i've had a look at https://t.co/zeYAS1jB2X but old cli habits die hard 🙈

TIL — GitHub's custom markdown syntax for notes and highlights supports Note, Tip, Important, Warning, and Caution.

When did this happen?

Side note: still not a fan of their non-standard blockquote syntax. 😅

tip: use `xcbeautify` to make your xcodebuild CI output a lot more readable👀

Also if you `brew install xcbeautify` locally it gets picked up by #ReactNative CLI and shows up a nicer output when you execute `run-ios` command 🚀

@KassandraSanch Turned mine into a retropie, use a couple of ps3 controllers on bluetooth and a keyboard to navigate the initial bootup

[Szymon Rybczak @SzymonRybczak]

.@kzzzf just presented a new tool that allows you to see the preview of your React Native app inside VS Code 🙌 Building React Native is getting really easy! 🚀

[Luke Taylor @LMCJT]

@skreepao IMO if you’re increasing the radius then I would tighten the padding, although that may make the buttons look like chips

I would also suggest that not all components need the same treatment of radius

[Luke Taylor @LMCJT]

@EmmaBostian Do you still code as an EM or do you see it as a separate function now you’ve stepped away from an IC role?

[Luke Taylor @LMCJT]

@The_GreatBonnie Great for everday tasks, why not have a gui in your editor

Though I often see in my team they can’t resolve rebases, gui doesn’t help and they lack terminal knowledge because of it

And buggy issues like duplicate comments, and editor slowdown

There’s a sweet spot between

@mattpocockuk What are your rules on when to use types vs. interfaces?

You mentioned “using interfaces for each prop”, so are types fine in all other scenarios?
