💚 Site of the Day - Oluwafemi Fashikun

Minimalist portfolio for Fashikun focused on speed and clarity, with subtle motion. Yet another example that minimal doesn't mean simple, boring and/or lifeless, it's all in the great details. Great design by Oluwafemi Fashikun (https://t.co/Yf2EklW63u) and development by @iPariola

Setting up an s3 bucket on @brimblehq

Quite easy and you can also migrate from your existing bucket to @brimblehq

Instagram instants is meant to replace Locket app ?

@frank_udoags Truth is I didn’t write the styles myself, I was just meant to help clean up the page for launch so I didn’t check that specific component

[P! @iPariola]

Backdrop-filter is fucking expensive; like, one of the most GPU-expensive css properties . Spent hours debugging a janky scroll on a long list… didn't even think to check my CSS code honestly 💀

"is it virtualization? content-visibility? a react re-render loop? the compositor?"

@akinkunmi More like they deliberately ignore linter errors also, till you point it out (this is an anti-pattern)

there is no better time in tech than now to be a jack of all trades, master of a few.

just make sure to keep adding to the few year over year, such that the cumulative breadth of expertise you collect becomes an increasingly rare combo. remember, if you're top 10% in 3 different areas, that already makes you top 0.1%. keep switching it up until you get to "your best", and then switch it up again (great for a particular flavor of people who don't enjoy resting on laurels, maybe not so great for others).

question all institutional value and pedigrees, all traditional career paths or corporate ladders: the college industrial complex is getting shaken up, alongside a disappearing managerial class, so if you're pursuing either make sure you are fully internally aligned with why. social/political capital in a particular institution can feel incredible, but if you're spending all your energy on complex political people games, you're not a technologist anymore, you're an unelected politician. if you're ok with that, then all's well.

critical thinking is more important than ever: take nothing at face-value, question everything and everyone. the equivalent of ai slop can be found in humans operating under misaligned incentives and interests. the sooner you're clued into disambiguating the talkers/larpers from the doers, the better off you'll be figuring out where and who to invest your time in.

the anxiety of job displacement is very real, since a surprising amount of white collar work/prestige is built on a performative house of cards, significantly lacking in correlation with technical breadth, depth, and skill. as long as you keep learning, keep building, keep producing receipts, you will be fine.

if all that sounds ok to you, welcome to the world of technology! it's truly one of the few places you can experience child-like wonder every few years, and be constantly humbled & excited by new adventures, as scary as they may seem at first.

don't give up, drink your water, get your sunlight, and take breaks as needed. tech careers are notoriously nonlinear, so you might as well embrace it and enjoy the ride!

Spent 3hrs reverting a feature they didn't send me to write, cos apparently it wasn't need now and lead wanted to write it in his own way 🫠

[Brimble @brimblehq]

where do you run code you don't trust?

brimble sandboxes, launching in a few weeks.
