@A11yLondon Back up camera in cars. Ever have a kink in your neck or an injury that prevents you from turning your neck behind you?

The solution is to always provide a compare function when sorting numeric arrays.

[Rachel Church @RachelWebDev]

JS does something unexpected if you run sort on an array of numbers.

Array#sort() casts the array elements to strings then compares based on their UTF-16 code units. In other words, it sorts alphabetically by the first character, then the second, etc.

As promised, here is a link to my slide deck from my presentation "Digging ourselves out of code debt".

Thank you to all who attended! I was so inspired by the women at #CONNECTRecharge and the warm and supportive community 🥰🤗

[Rachel Church @RachelWebDev]

So excited to be presenting on addressing code debt at #CONNECTRecharge in a few hours!
Speaking at a conference has been a goal of mine for many years, and I have slowly been concurring my fear of public speaking working towards this point.

I discovered that @babeljs has a theme song the tune of Hallelujah and I am so here for it: https://t.co/8KyohpzmXp

"Generators, const and let
I used them all without regret
And it’s a terse and a destructured Hallelujah"

@BrettEast When using the typescript-operations plugin the TS type generated for a query will only include the fields that the qraphql query requested. In the example repo, the GetToysUnderPriceQuery type only includes the fields of DogToy that the getToysUnderPrice query included.

@ParissAthena I work remote and have never met my coworkers. Having a camera on helps to put a face and personality to a voice. I don’t know how we would bond as a team without video and I would have felt way more isolated during COVID without the humanizing aspect of video calls vs audio only

Tired: Begging your team for code review.
Wired: Click-baiting them to your PR.

Hellllo color-coded Chrome tab groups. Where have you been all my life??

[Rachel Church @RachelWebDev]

@WomenWhoCode 1. Remind yourself you were hired for a reason! They saw something in you.
2. Over-communicate and be honest about what your strengths are and what you want to learn. No one expects you to know everything.
3. Read blogs of similar situations. You aren’t alone in this feeling

Are you using React? Yes.

[Henning Dieterichs @hediet_dev]

Github1s is really nice.
Just add "1s" after "github" when viewing code on https://t.co/0Wbx80muQp and VS Code loads up instantly:

I've spoken to 2,000+ companies over the last 12 months about their plans for remote work going forward

Here are a few things I've learned

@tai_leclaire For all of you claiming that it is not racist, the chiefs fans dress in culturally appropriated attire that encourages a false narrative of who and what native Americans were and are.

Have you noticed how your phone is never in any of your dreams?

[Rachel Church @RachelWebDev]

@brad_frost Smart blinds in the bedroom so I can set them to slowly open around the time I need to wake up. And smart watering system in the yard so I can schedule watering plants and turn it off when it rains.

@WomenWhoCode 21. I worked in the phone room of UC Davis’ Financial aid office when I got an opportunity to help code in https://t.co/UOKEDiqLWa on their internal tools.
