@ParissAthena I first used the Internet back when dial-up and BBSes where really the only way to go online lol

@billystringsph1 Bruh, books are more of a threat than guns /s

[Long Journey Digital @digitaljourneys]

@ParissAthena I'm pretty sure you can get phones with pre-programmed numbers that you as a parent can totally control.

[Long Journey Digital @digitaljourneys]

@ThePrimeagen pretty sure React is built with Java

[Long Journey Digital @digitaljourneys]

I don' t know who needs to hear this, but React isn't a programming language.

#reactjs

Is anyone even still using Twitter...?

Oh wait...I mean "X". Is anyone still using "X"?

[Long Journey Digital @digitaljourneys]

@traversymedia @senusi_muhammed I've largely abandoned the platform. I come back every once in a while to see what's left.

I started in the 1980s with #1, but we did get a regular Nintendo in 1990 so #2

This just showed up in my Instagram feed. Thought it was funny.

@hussien_coding Depends on if they can keep it from becoming a crutch.

[Long Journey Digital @digitaljourneys]

I think I was 6. We had one of those old Tandy computers that you plugged into the TV, and my dad showed me how to write simple programs. Later on when I was about 10 I learned Pascal, and when I was in High School I learned C++. I'll be 40 this year. I feel so old.

At what age did you start coding?

I’ll start: 33

[Long Journey Digital @digitaljourneys]

@rafrasenberg C++, back in the 90s

[Long Journey Digital @digitaljourneys]

@gabegreenberg YES. I hate React. Plus I'd just invest that million into my own company and hire people to build stuff for me.

[Long Journey Digital @digitaljourneys]

@TheJackForge Been there.

[Long Journey Digital @digitaljourneys]

@TheJackForge Bro sometimes I have to remind myself that I was an adult in my 20s when Youtube launched and I haven't had it my whole life.

[Long Journey Digital @digitaljourneys]

@paulogia0 I used to think like that, but I've since realized that there's really no point to the Atonement - like, why can't God simply forgive you without the human sacrifice part?

[Long Journey Digital @digitaljourneys]

@nat_snacks Depends on your use case. I'm fine doing self hosted on Linode. But if you're expecting high traffic you might want to look elsewhere.

[Long Journey Digital @digitaljourneys]

@nat_snacks I have a 27" and a 35", the 27" is mounted above my 35". For my new setup I'm going dual 35", one above the other. I love me some screen space.

@TheJackForge My marital status is "undefined"
