Aiming to fix volatility, one area of life at a time.

@russelljkaplan @GergelyOrosz You must be joking. Software engineer = human who builds software. Prefacing that term with AI implies that it's an AI that can do the same thing, and by extension replace them. Acting like it doesn't imply that is at best ignorant, at worst intentionally misleading.

If you build to a high enough degree of quality, the platform will turn your product into part of their product.

Prophets of doom profit from gloom.

Be skeptical of those whose incentives are contrary to yours.

@hamadamahdii @kylegawley `mx-auto` applies `margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;`. From a speed/characters written standpoint that savings adds up.

Also I work at an agency where we frequently have to work with legacy code and inconsistent designs. It's very useful in this context.

@babysoftluke @AJA_Cortes I got myself one of these which has been incredible beneficial for ankle strength/overall balance: https://t.co/VAX1k3sFCP

@venturetwins @gbrulte This is either South Park level satire (in which case I love it), or someone wrote that copy non-sarcastically, which...🤦‍♂️

@heyalexfriedman Starting a men's support group has been phenomenally beneficial for my mental health and that of my friends! https://t.co/UHVxVAPaK3

@dannypostma Love the concept, but given that Hisense is a Chinese company I feel Hisense is going to come with a lot of the privacy/backdoor issues that a Huawei phone will have. Do you think that's a reasonable concern?

Ban it!

[Cyan Banister @cyantist]

This is exactly correct and why the middle in this graph feels lost. The far left will prey on that because they will now tell you that you are a racist nazi and everything else under the sun, but make no mistake, they are the ones wanting to silence speech, control your movements, and destroy freedom in this country.

A divided house doesn’t stand nor does a country. Democrats - take back your party.

@0x15f This is what we use for new devs at my agency: https://t.co/frbS5OwvLd - from @weeklyhow

We use tailwindCSS as part of our standard setup so it's particularly relevant, but it's a solid course all around.

What platform risk?

[Brandon Olin @BrandonOlin]

@WarrenDavidson I generally try to reserve judgement on such things until I've had a chance to sift through the details myself, but that is...concerning, to say the least.

[Brandon Olin @BrandonOlin]

@WarrenDavidson Fun that when you try to access the full legislation PDf to see what it actually says on the site for it: https://t.co/7vBWZU4u9I

It looks like it's been taken down.

My rule for life: Don’t complain about anything.

If it’s within your control, go do something about it. If it’s not, complaining is just a waste of energy.

@harleyf As a Shopify agency dev: people realize that with online shopping the date is somewhat arbitrary, and if you launch your sale early you can potentially capture customers limited holiday budgets before your competitors.

@RyeMcKenzie Startup. Korean drama about a startup accelerator. Obligatory KDrama love triangle aside, the tech and entrepreneurship aspects of the story are very good.
