It looks like they had a fun time at a the event in PA. 120 high schoolers competed in 6 different events on 12 teams. The 26 coaches and admin recorded 72 competitions. In total 200 people were at the event!

Go check out the results at my site: https://t.co/7M8wf0tWDp

@iamgrantowen There are two types of people in this world. Those who wear shorts in July heat and those who… hide calves

@iamgrantowen Buy the minivan of my dreams.

I can say with absolute certainty that if I started Tailwind CSS over from scratch, there would be no `@​apply` 😬

The behavior is outrageously complicated, everyone struggles to build the right mental model of what it's supposed to do, and it encourages bad CSS architecture.

Why choose a JS CDN when you can let them compete for your love and affection?

First one that resolves wins. Ready? Go!

const MyModule = await Promise.any([
import("unpkg/...")
import("cdnjs.cloudflare/...")
import("cdn.jsdelivr/...")
import("cdn.skypack/...")
]);

@adamwathan Definitely add a light back there. It can either be seen or put behind the amp. It will outline the guitar/amp better but more importantly it will add depth to the room which will separate you from the background. The dimmer switch on these is really nice https://t.co/UbSCXwe36K

So I guess I should get a reverse hyper now?

[Adam Wathan @adamwathan]

Added a reverse hyper to my garage gym to try and rehab a bad back injury that’s plagued me for about 9 years and forced me to stop competing. Using it every day and surprised by how much of a difference it’s already making 🤯

@mcrowder65 For an actual recommendation, have you read the Red Rising series?

@BrittJMartin @therubyonrails Hey I would love to chat 👋. I have been a rails developer for 6 years, I have a pretty decent podcast setup ready to go on my end, I have 2 squat racks and I coach 12 lifters out of my garage in powerlifting. We also have merch and our own sign - Belle Grove Barbell 😀.

[Riley Shenk @lawn_champ]

@r00k @DavidVII @adamwathan Same here. That podcast inspired me to learn how to lift with a barbell for the first time. I took the advice of read Starting Strength and record everything in Strong App. I now own 3 squat racks, and 12 people all brand new to lifting, train powerlifting out of my garage.

@jshenk5 @colinodell If you aren’t force pushing you aren’t living

@mcrowder65 😮

The stories in the thread are a real treasure.

[HBO Max Help @hbomaxhelp]

We mistakenly sent out an empty test email to a portion of our HBO Max mailing list this evening. We apologize for the inconvenience, and as the jokes pile in, yes, it was the intern. No, really. And we’re helping them through it. ❤️

Relatable 😬

Me interviewing frontend developers...

[Riley Shenk @lawn_champ]

Wow this is a stressful read.

[Patrick McKenzie @patio11]

In honor of someone’s bad bug today, I will retell a story of my worst bug:

Once upon a time I was the CEO and entire engineering team of a company which sent appointment reminders.

Each reminder was sent by a cron job draining a queue. That queue was filled by another cron job

@mcrowder65 Oh I just mean delete branches I am not looking at anymore. My own branches that have been merged or branches I pulled down for a code review.

[Riley Shenk @lawn_champ]

I have been doing "git branch" like a barbarian for years. My life is changed now that I found
"git branch --sort=-committerdate"

Finally, now when I don't remember branch names I don't have to read through a big list of branches when I only care about my last 2 or 3 branches.

[Riley Shenk @lawn_champ]

and yes, I know I should be pruning my local branches more often 😔

[Riley Shenk @lawn_champ]

"git checkout -" is something I constantly use
