I used to write code. I still do, but I used to, too.

Tech Twitter in a nutshell.

[Simon Høiberg @SimonHoiberg]

Use the right tool for the job!

Front end:
JavaScript (obviously).

Back end:
Well... JavaScript (node).

Mobile Apps:
React Native! So... yeah, JavaScript.

Machine Learning:
Tensorflow.js is huge! I'd go for JavaScript on this one.

Desktop Apps:
Electron. So, JavaScript.

I'm at the age where I rarely like new music from bands I listened to ~20 years ago, but I'm obsessed with @silverstein's Misery Made Me. I love the way their sound has matured on this album; every song on there is an absolute banger. They still put on a hell of a live show, too.

@ThePrimeagen Ctrl-h for the win.

@jameslankford Great idea 🙄 Let's "keep everyone safe" by sending them to the unregulated black market, where what you buy could be deadly.

Weed is not a gateway to harder drugs; illegal dealers are.

Your war on drugs is a failure and a joke.

Slack's new huddle features are awesome. I feel like the only thing that's missing now is the ability to remote control, à la Tuple.

@digitalocean Has to be @tpope for me. My day-to-day workflow would be completely different (and much less enjoyable) without his work.

[evantheokay @evanthegrayt]

@RillonDodgers I don’t know to what you’re referring, but I wholeheartedly agree.

[evantheokay @evanthegrayt]

Is me.

Heck, make a theme for your favorite editor or a prompt/theme for your shell and add installation/customization instructions.

People often ask me how they can stand out more when applying for tech jobs. I say, have at least one complete project on your GitHub. Something simple or just for fun, but works, and has good documentation. It's less about your skills, and more if you can complete something.

[evantheokay @evanthegrayt]

As an example, this gem is only ~200 lines of actual lib code, but it's cleanly-written, well-tested/documented, and released on rubygems. It's not even an original idea, but it shows how I chose to solve an issue, and how I write and document projects. https://t.co/qBTtUmDfd4

Ha, pretty neat, Github. https://t.co/e60Xy5lhfY

I was just on a walk, and Siri kept interrupting my music with notifications. Frustrated, I said "F*ck off" under my breath, and she stopped talking to me. I'm sorry bb, I didn't mean it.

@RillonDodgers @uberbrodt Now is the time! 😉
