Right now, someone, somewhere, is merging AI-generated tests riddled with false positives because they didn't see them fail first.

@SquarespaceHelp, searching for domains on mobile is a bit difficult. The Google Domains banner hides the input when the keyboard pops up.

I've started working on an extension for Chat GPT where you can hide your chat history and close the sidebar.

Am I the only person that wants this?

The text colour contrast in most children’s books is horrendous.

Raleway’s “W” has bothered me for years.

I've discovered a handy little Jira feature by mistake today...

How to easily embed a URL:
1. Copy a link
2. In Jira, highlight the words in a comment/description (edit mode)
3. Paste over the highlighted text

Link embedded!

No more scrolling up to click embed
No more CMD+K

@flaviocopes It's hard to pull off but looks great when done right.

These have done it for years and do it well (although there seems to be less mono since the last time I checked).

@flaviocopes I bet you still own the domain?

They're hard to drop.

Nice one!

@swapnakpanda Option 4: learn HTML, CSS & JS.

React comes much later.

[Ross @RossCarrick]

@swapnakpanda For JS:

- Good job including bigint.

- null is the built-in type for null (ignore typeof)

- object is the built-in type for array and set.

It's important you know each built-in type so you can master things such as coercion and equality.

@zemnmez @t3dotgg Not everything

[Ross @RossCarrick]

@reactive_dude @t3dotgg Couple of things to note there:

'Key Types' for objects should be 'Strings and Symbols'.

'Built-in' keys for maps is wrong. Maps are objects so they have everything an object has and more.

@EricVBailey When I was a kid, I saw a car casually resting upside down in the middle of the road outside my parent's home: no damage and no machinery in sight.

@_jessicasachs I bet you were ex-static.
