You can be a great developer or designer, even if you don't live in San Francisco.

@round I have the sudden urge to redesign a site and disable all mouse events. Keyboard only website. Maybe not mobile friendly. Step one, connect keyboard to phone.

Turns out I’m the loser in this game of chicken. I had to start the meeting from my phone while the update had 9 more minutes.

[Garth Braithwaite @GarthDB]

My time blind self playing chicken between the macOS update and the meeting that’s starting shortly.

@nathanacurtis If you’re still looking to chat, I speak for the tokens and the platforms that use them on Spectrum.

@dbanksDesign Congrats!

[Garth Braithwaite @GarthDB]

My love languages are:
alone time
canceled meetings (last minute is best)
people enjoying my cooking

@danmall As an engineer I’ve only had white men as managers, so I don’t think our diversity and inclusion initiatives have quite worked out yet.

[Garth Braithwaite @GarthDB]

@sarahmsmart These are the types of productivity goals I need to set for myself.

[Myk is going to Vibecamp @mykola]

Looks like I need to find a new job. Anyone hiring EMs these days? Also interested in engineering work, most interested in ethical targeted use of LLMs (eg tools that are run to augment existing human flows).

I’m kind and smart and fun, hire me!

[Garth Braithwaite @GarthDB]

@round if designers are invertebrates they should at least have cool exoskeletons.

[Garth Braithwaite @GarthDB]

@round Risograph?

[Garth Braithwaite @GarthDB]

@kentcdodds Your thoughts on design systems.

[Garth Braithwaite @GarthDB]

Just finished my talk. I’ll post a link to the video when it’s available.

Collect | Systematize | Communicate | Improve
No one will thank you for the work you do on a design system – until they need it. It's a discipline – apply pressure to find time so you can do this work.

[Katie Langerman @KatieLangerman]

It’s very cool and surreal meeting people who listen to our podcast IRL! Thanks for saying such nice things and making my day.

[Garth Braithwaite @GarthDB]

@round Bartenders could be bev devs.

[Garth Braithwaite @GarthDB]

A package of fun things delivered to my door in preparation for @Adobe Design Summit next week.

[Garth Braithwaite @GarthDB]

Does anyone have a doc coverage solution they like? ESDoc has a coverage report tool, but also ESDoc hasn't been updated in 6 years.
