@HenriHelvetica X7 now! Wrapped two track days with Porsche a few months back! How about you?

@swyxio $2300 for a virtual pass is... a lot

[Jem Young @JemYoung]

"Staff engineer" too. Heck even "Engineering Manager" means very different things depending on the company

[Erin Fox @erinfoox]

The bar for "senior engineer" varies so wildly by company it's almost a useless title.

*almost*

[Cursor @cursor_ai]

We’re introducing Cursor 3. It is simpler, more powerful, and built for a world where all code is written by agents, while keeping the depth of a development environment.

"learnings" is not a word

Introducing guild-glyph — a deterministic SVG avatar library that turns any string into a unique, beautiful icon.

Same string always produces the same glyph. No images, no fonts, pure SVG.

in the next version of noodle

all you need to install and get a working noodle loop is to paste a prompt to your agent. it will learn from your past conversations to build a workflow thats tailored for your repo.

[Joshua Reed Eakle 🗽 @JoshEakle]

It’s important that you understand what happened last night.

Last night, Stephen Colbert interviewed Democratic Texas Senate candidate James Talarico, a candidate who, by all accounts, is on track in the polls to flip Texas blue.

In response, Trump’s FCC reportedly threatened CBS if the interview aired.

CBS caved and pulled the segment, citing “financial reasons.”

In modern American history, no president has been more hostile to free speech than Donald Trump.

But censorship always backfires.

Here’s the full segment Trump didn’t want you to see.

[Paul Graham @paulg]

He's right you know.

How bad do things have to get before you say something?

[Barack Obama @BarackObama]

The killing of Alex Pretti is a heartbreaking tragedy. It should also be a wake-up call to every American, regardless of party, that many of our core values as a nation are increasingly under assault.

[Master.dev (Formerly Frontend Masters) @MasterDotDev]

Great code can’t save a poorly designed system.
Unclear requirements and hidden complexity compound until production breaks.

Jem Young (@JemYoung) Engineering Leader at Netflix, teaches how to design backend systems that scale by design!

@JemYoung is one best of the best instructors on @FrontendMasters. Recently I have watched his full stack for frontend course and its the best.

Its easy to tell students to do everything on their own but Jem is different he has done all the exercises with the students.

[Jem Young @JemYoung]

@shiva_baaba @FrontendMasters Thank you so much! I never know what questions someone will ask so I try to run through all the exercises beforehand just to make sure I can explain things simply and thoroughly

If I'm a new person in tech, what is the best way to find conferences/meetups to start building connections into the broader community?
