Does the word "compliance" rankle anyone else, or is it just me?

hey @github this won't affect username/password auth for git push/pull on the command line, will it? https://t.co/DgEZrTiPnm

using https://t.co/ureKUZDdha lately, and just realized: writing tests that resemble the way users use an app helps with #a11y too

Q: "how can I verify that icon button is disabled?"

A: "it better have accessible text so the test can target it"

[Kent C. Dodds 🏹 @kentcdodds]

The more your tests resemble the way your software is used, the more confidence they can give you.

donation match hack: if you work at @GoldmanSachs and will be donating to "recipient organizations," consider splitting your donation into $25 installments. it'll be worth 2x as much that way

hey @chriseppstein! have you seen a sidebar that auto stacks with the main content using CSS alone & no media-query? I've been reading https://t.co/W5STF6pMoa, and it has even more like that, but based on axioms that mean rethinking how we do CSS-in-JS afaict. what's your take?

[Nick @codefox421]

@pi3rogi @dustyexner how do you, personally, pull off #2? my success with #1 often involves going against #2, and I'm looking for better options

If you or your family is looking for something to do in the SF Bay this weekend, stop on by the Caltrain station at Menlo Park for a model railroad open house! RTs appreciated :)

[Nick @codefox421]

@SlackHQ +1! I'm looking forward to this too. trying to shoot some JS tagged template literal syntax to my colleagues, but can't do it within an inline code block on Slack, like: `variable_name`template ${literal}``

[Nick @codefox421]

@millea9 @chriseppstein do y'all know of any webpack projects using both css-blocks and jest? I made a cursory attempt to get jest working (uploaded to the repo/branch), but no success yet

@real_carlw @zinyando @SnowflakeDB I talked to our manager. current policy is no, but we just got a new head of engineering, so that might change. they're gonna chat about it tomorrow

this is how you can tell a website it treating zip codes as numbers rather than strings. zip code missing it's leading 0 😂

.@Experian I'm locked out of my account, your password reset form isn't working, and your robo operator is unhelpful. what magic incantation do I need to perform to talk to a fucking human?

[Nick @codefox421]

@VamptVo I was tempted to watch it for the dragons/airplanes, but shied away b/c it looked like another "person who hasn't practiced at all succeeds at the thing no one else can do by sheer will power/luck/writer's script/etc" narrative. is it actually like that?

[Nick @codefox421]

that feel when you make it into the office before @helloslackbot pings you with your reminders set for "tomorrow morning" for the first time in a long time
