"Yes AI is going to take all the jobs and we're headed for 40% unemployment but your grandma that can't afford her cancer medication can code a B2B SaaS app from the nursing home that's evicting her"

Who knew this wouldn't be a winning messaging strategy

It is incredibly upsetting seeing how hateful so much of the tech community is.

Until my trans friends can live in their country without fear outside their homes and be comfortable with themselves inside, I will celebrate trans visibility every day until bigots see what I see.

Don’t let corporate world ruin your gym schedule and self care routine.

Instead of deporting immigrants who build homes, why not pay Americans a living wage to make your merch? Instead of outsourcing your manufacturing to foreign sweatshops with a history of murder and theft?

@livinversace For real like go save the world or some shit 😕

Only out of touch tech bros write shit like this.

founder of loom after selling for $1B

[Adam Rackis @AdamRackis]

There’s a constant refrain of “software engineers are toast bro”

The people saying it are trying to sell you something

The thing they’re selling is always a chat gpt wrapper

And the dudes selling it were buying bored ape jpegs a few years ago

It’s just tiring

[Danny 🇹🇹🇵🇷 @danfnyc]

@glumGPT Congrats!!!

[Danny 🇹🇹🇵🇷 @danfnyc]

@DThompsonDev Good on you for getting back to it! Also tore my ACL last year and had to stop training for fights and get surgery. Hope recovery goes well!

Remote work is individual convenience at the expense of group effectiveness

Offices lead to greater connection, inspiration, community, productivity, and even wellbeing.

This right here 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

I will die on the hill that RTO hurts families with young children the most — and mothers above all when mom is still the default caregiver.

Don’t make people choose between their kids and their careers.

[Danny 🇹🇹🇵🇷 @danfnyc]

@heynikkidotdev Hope it's nothing serious and you feel better and sleep better soon ♥️🙏🏾

[emily freeman @editingemily]

Opens Twitter.

Reads the words “founder mode.”

Closes Twitter.

[Danny 🇹🇹🇵🇷 @danfnyc]

No it doesn't.

Unpopular opinion: webdev twitter is toxic.

the gatekeeping. the engagement bait. the unrelenting righteousness. it's embarrassing. and draining.

i'm tree-shaking my feed. i want it to be full of (the many) positive, encouraging, warm folks in the space. not professional hot-takers.

the world is better with more people building software (or *trying* to build software!). cheap shots may get likes, but it comes at the steep price of fewer people building their ideas.

if you're a builder (or want to be a builder <3), the only thing that matters is that you get *something* in front of *someone*. please trust me on this: the rest will fall into place. as more people discover what you've made, you'll organically arrive at the right overlap of tech and personal interest. trust-fall into that fact. ignore the rest.

with that said, there are incredible people here who are energy givers, bucket fillers, and webdev killers.

i highly recommend following at least these folks: @cassidoo @brianmmdev @reshmasaujani @kentcdodds @jlengstorf @ChloeCondon @ladyleet @tannerlinsley @ballingt @leahculver @stubbornella

i'm missing so many. who else is in the "energy giver" bucket on X?! please tag them!

Just a reminder for those watching the discourse around the crowdstrike issue:
If you use "DEI engineer" to describe a person, you are a racist.
