@wayflyerapp is Ireland's 6th unicorn 🦄🦄🦄 It's been an incredible journey since I joined in October 2021! We're also hiring lots of engineers. DM if interested!

@TippBeerGuy @RedHatJobs @RedHat @waterfordit Congratulations James, that's great news!

[Dara Hayes @darahayess]

@TippBeerGuy @OHarasBeers @YardsAndCrafts That looks really nice. Aldi stock a lot of O'Haras do they have this one also? I love Beamish for cans of stout these days!

[Dara Hayes @darahayess]

@evanshortiss Nice progress! I'm after getting back on it myself and it's been really nice with the improving weather. My long term goal is to be able to run 5k in 25 minutes or less but it's gonna take a while to get there 😅

@evanshortiss I think typescript is doing a good job here in telling you the intention of the code is kinda unclear tbh 😅 Why not the following. if a return type(a), else if b return type(b) else throw error. A lot simpler to grasp i think haha

@codingchaos I'm a <br> cause I'm at my breaking point 💀

The answer to every question is 'it depends'

Tell me you're a software developer, without saying you're a software developer.

@poledesfetes @matteocollina @bengl Not Italian but I love making carbonara. The trick is to turn the heat off a bit before the pasta is done. Imediately transfer the cooked pasta to the pan and add the sauce. The warm pasta + pan will do the job. Reserve some pasta water just in case the sauce is too stiff!

@conzy_m That sucks! I had a similar one a few years ago I moved into a house with a converted attic. One day I went out leaving the velux window open without realising my monitor was on the floor right underneath it. It rained in on top of it all day 😅

@mernin @eddievanhalen Very sad to see him pass away so young. I love this story about how he recorded the iconic solo for Michael Jackson's Beat It and rearranged parts of the song for free and didn't take any writing credit. He revolutionised the guitar for sure!

@TippBeerGuy Yeah I get ya. I was coming from a different place. For the first few months of lockdown, I became so sedentary and my diet was so poor. I realised this is gonna be my life for the the next year at least so I need to do something sustainable!

Having spent years working on dev tools for building fully offline web apps and everything that goes along with that, There's something so nice about going back to building static sites with plain old HTML and CSS and JavaScript.

@evanshortiss Me checking my node_modules folder also hoping to find prequel memes

@LarryBradyBunch @Rubberbandits Privacy is a genuine concern but the article is conflating one thing with another:
✅ Android phones in general send lots of data to google
❌ the covid app cannot access or send this data to the government/HSE
The article is written by someone who doesn't understand technology.

[Dara Hayes @darahayess]

@LarryBradyBunch @Rubberbandits Of course it would be nice if Google would 'fix' it but they won't because it isn't broken. It's doing exactly what they intend it to do. I honestly don't like these practices myself but it has absolutely nothing to do with the government or the Covid app.
