Excited to join these SaaS leaders at @SaaStr on Sept 27-29! My talk is on lessons learned (and unlearned) as a cofounder/CEO while scaling a product & biz, pivoting after acquisition, and launching a commerce solution to 14M+ customers! @SaaStrAnnual https://t.co/F0yVl0xilr

My wife sometimes asks me what I am doing right now and when it's Open Source stuff I don't know how to answer that.

It's not work since it's not paying. It's not fun side projects since it's not not that fun and also it would mean I would have to stop and go help.

Today, @SenChrisLarson and I introduce LRB-0951, which would implement comprehensive ranked-choice voting in Wisconsin.

I'm reviewing resumes again for another full-time developer hire and I'm noticing a lot of the same work across portfolios, especially for newer devs.

[Jon Perl @jonperl]

🐺 Just open sourced QA Wolf 2.0 to make browser testing easier

- Create a test from your browser, no install required
- Run tests on a schedule or on a @Netlify / @vercel deployment
- Debug tests with a video, logs, and the exact line a test failed on

Stop judging developers by what they look like. Seriously:

[Kelly Vaughn @kvlly]

I used to call myself a self-taught developer, but that ignores all of the people and resources who helped me along the way. I'm not sure what the correct phrase is for how I learned to code, but I didn't do it alone.

Happy Halloween everyone! As promised, here is 'The Caretaker'. A no JavaScript, pure CSS horror / puzzle game. Play it here https://t.co/HN7lSf1bt5 on @codepen. Thanks to all the people who tested this before release. You know who you are :) Enjoy!

I know everyone is dying to know, so okay here's where I stand: no, #HTML is not a programming language, not even a declarative one. It's more like a database. If you know HTML, you are a database admin, not a programmer.

Need to take a break, or limit which people can send a pull request to your repo?

You can now limit interactions for a period of time. Find it in your project settings › moderation settings › interaction limits.

What if, just this once, you actually did "run `npm fund` for details"?

Developing and manufacturing vaccines won’t end the pandemic quickly unless we also deliver them equitably. Here is why it’s critical that vaccines are distributed in proportion to the global population: https://t.co/XFTYVZ2C2N
