Took every ounce of my being to not order a coffee for my mouth this morning.

Absolutely killer show last night @PapaNichs @sullivanbeau

Here’s how we can minimize the harms of gentrification (like displacement) while maintaining the benefits of development (like new housing and amenities)

@nikitonsky @ClojureDays Yes! It really sells the effect.

I made a new puzzle website: https://t.co/DFgIGMBhlw

If you like puzzles or escape rooms, give this a try!

[Adrian Aleixandre @_aaleixandre]

I attended @enigmida's monthly puzzle meetup and made my first(?) ever puzzle by applying my web development skills. It's a seemingly-simple website login form with a few twists. See if you can log in! https://t.co/ebikJUPBRv

@nikitonsky The top is a touch more human/playful. Bottom feels geometric/mathematical. I like the top personally.

I know integration testing is all the rage in front-end these days, but I’m still pretty convinced by the value of unit testing components. The value isn’t in the tests you create, but in the clean API boundaries you are forced to make.

@johncutlefish Oh also, the icon on the left navigation absolutely needs to change to the currently selected shape.

[Adrian Aleixandre @_aaleixandre]

@johncutlefish The interaction to draw different shapes should be different. For example, a circle would be more neutral to drag a diameter vs a bounding box. For the arrow, I would want to drag from the start to the end of the arrow.

#AgileMaxim 1: It is in the doing of the work that we discover the work that we must do. Doing exposes reality.

@kiraemclean No, this is lovely and you're not weird!

[Adrian Aleixandre @_aaleixandre]

@unisonweb This really puts the lambda in lambda!

[Adrian Aleixandre @_aaleixandre]

I wish there were better visibility into the state of the DOM while working on tests with @TestingLib. Sometimes it is unable to find an element but it’s not clear what has happened. Are interactive there devtools I don't know about?

[Adrian Aleixandre @_aaleixandre]

@hillelogram I made an app that helps my friend @KolyaVenturi and I make coffee in the mornings.

[Simon Harrer @simonharrer]

Great summary. Kudos to @IndustrialLogic

I am looking for a good photo storage solution. I’d like for it to be affordable, durable, and also where I own/control the data. A hard drive at my house is too risky but paid services like Google Photos I don’t trust and are pricy.

[Adrian Aleixandre @_aaleixandre]

@allenholub @pappapez @farazamiruddin Also, since I have your attention: I primarily credit you for opening my eyes to true agility and I am immensely thankful for that.
