Hopping off the bird app, account will stick around for a few days if for anyone who wants to DM me on deets to keep in touch!

@jerius_ @kellyleland @michaelgorsuch @asenchi @whitwerk Lmao

[Karl Kirch @joekarl]

@whitwerk @michaelgorsuch @asenchi I can corroborate this story. It was indeed a moment of old fashion induced prescience.

@snellingio Having decisions made for you about pagination/relationships/filtering/etc is a huge win. Just follow the spec and a whole world of client libs “just work”.

[Karl Kirch @joekarl]

@jeff_french And I will!

@imjacobnotjames This is 100% why I’m getting “not gas” for future stove/oven (well and also the whole carbon monoxide thing)

[Karl Kirch @joekarl]

Spending my evening researching orchestral excerpts and doomscrolling. Yay

[Karl Kirch @joekarl]

Doing the thing where I actually learn how to tune snare drums. One of these days it’ll click…

[Karl Kirch @joekarl]

@vantreeseba Feels like there should be a middle ground between that and say the madness in C++

[Karl Kirch @joekarl]

@vantreeseba I feel like being in the scala world and then back in ruby world has me appreciating the “just enough typing to not shoot myself on the foot” mentality. I do like Go’s interface matching setup (even if the primitive typing can get pedantic)

[Karl Kirch @joekarl]

@vantreeseba It’s mostly the incremental / opt in bits that are neat. Super handy for retrofitting existing code (or plowing ahead and then doing cleanup after the fact) without needing to be invasive.

@vantreeseba Not JS but in the vein maybe… https://t.co/SLmZsHdbdZ

Doing some painting with the nieces/nephews for Christmas. This was my result

[Karl Kirch @joekarl]

Aaaaaaaaa

[Karl Kirch @joekarl]

@piisalie @mkchandler Sigh, I haven’t done any of these and now my brain is going to force me to work on this 😅

[Karl Kirch @joekarl]

Shamelessly advertising a frontend position that's open on my team https://t.co/2xkpWrNsV1

@vlucas The consideration isn’t vaccine side effect vs death, it’s vaccine side effect vs death + spreading to others + side effects of Covid itself + more variants + etc.

Having my family vaccinated helps protect people who can’t protect themselves.

[Karl Kirch @joekarl]

@PaulLamb Yup we’re good. Some flickering lights but nothing else. Now to get the kiddo back to sleep 😅

[Karl Kirch @joekarl]

Is fine

[Karl Kirch @joekarl]

Paint paint paint (not bad for using the kiddo’s watercolors)
