Creator of Sqlite on pull requests: "You say, oh, it's free. No. It's not free. What you're doing is asking me ... to maintain it for you, to to document it for you, to test it for you, to maintain it for you for the next 25 years. That's not free." Yep.

Wise words from a wiser man than me. I've told people for the past decade and I have recent posts on here saying the same: the merge button is the easy part. Its the decade+ (Richard says 25 years) that follows where you've accepted the transfer of maintenance thats hard.

@kentcdodds So Much This! You need to feel the pain and patterns of repeated manual processes to be able to deduce a system that will truly be empathetic and focused on user need.

By shrinking their monorepo from 87GB to 20GB, clone times dropped from an hour to under 15 minutes, onboarding became faster, CI pipeline started faster, and they saw fewer timeouts.

@awkwardgoogle This gives me so much joy.

Masquerading malware is malicious software that disguises itself as something legitimate to avoid detection and trick users or security systems into trusting it.

For example: this is not a bumble bee. It is a kitty cat. The cat is masquerading as a bumble bee.

I hate rules that are designed to make people conform, especially kids.

Kids go through years of school and slowly learn to shrink themselves… to color inside the lines. Dress codes. Standardized tests. Keep your voice down.

Then we hand them a diploma and tell them to go find their passion, stand out from the crowd, and build something unique.

We spent 12 years teaching them not to. And then we’re surprised when they don’t know how.

I hate it.

@FlaSustenido It makes me want to read it, thanks for sharing!

Yes, but all documentation is technical debt. You constantly have to update it. It’s always wrong. Consequently, you should write as a little of it as possible.

Oh no, they suspended @danielradcliffe's Twitter account! Wasn't it obvious he was doing a PARODY???

In 1 Peter 3:7, Peter addresses Christian husbands of Christian wives, telling these husbands to submit to their wives. It's important that this verse doesn't have a main verb. Translations have handled this in different ways. 1/9
