Really outstanding answer for anyone feeling tempted (like I frequently am) to do runtime type checking with #Typescript - https://t.co/nbIHON4QK5

Pretty nice, comprehensive summary of Linux shell commands. I think the only one here I haven't used is "emacs" 🤓 #vim #shell

Wow. 😋 This exceeded my wildest expectations. Perfectly seared in our inaugural use — 3 USDA prime rib eye steaks! #matfer #carbonsteelrocks https://t.co/cDBKtX0cxO

[Mark Edington @markeedington]

The perfect recipe — 1/3 cup oil, 2/3 cup salt and the skin of two potatoes. Sauté for 15 min.

The outcome is deliciously golden and slippery. #matfer #carbonsteelrocks https://t.co/LBgpuWWvaq

A little levity for the propeller head types, it's pretty old but it just came across my radar. The 500 mile email story.

Someone shared this at work, definitely a worthwhile read for any software developer. https://t.co/C6kJP2vfKG

Ok, love this one:

I imagine all the closures and cancellations give people a sense of ominousness. But it's really an amazing act of social solidarity: We're sacrificing so we can give nurses, doctors and hospitals a fighting chance. Start from there and hopefully we can figure out the rest.

Finally dawned on my that it should setup #bash completion for #npm. Especially handy for those package.json files where the list scripts is getting long. https://t.co/nCYKtX9HBh

@arclight I used to consider Araxis the gold standard of merge tools, but at $269 it's ridiculously overpriced for a niche tool. FWIW, the Jetbrains 3-way merge works VERY well once you master the knobs and switches.

Yo @turbotax gettin' some mixed messages here. Is this refund taxable or not?

Considering I owed money in 2017, I'm guessing not, but hey, thought I would double check. <g,d&r>

[TypeScript @typescript]

TypeScript 3.4 is available! Now with:

- smarter inference for function composition
- better support for immutable patterns
- globalThis support
- a new refactoring for functions to use named parameters

Read up and try it now! https://t.co/8RbtPvgLmC

I've been unhappy with how Apple deals with external bug reports. This is what happens to your bugs: https://t.co/6SIgeQBDHz

Having just been through interview with several companies in the last few weeks, I can certainly appreciate this list! https://t.co/MAq9F5VZno

I have several little CLI projects in mind. Looks like #ink and #React might be great way to build them! https://t.co/77IYp5jCNp

Kudos to #perfmatters for the lodging rundown for the conf. Exceptionally helpful and brutally honest. https://t.co/qkCmNKCLOk "Marriot will run you $349+, and they're jerks..."

Super jazzed about trying out "Super Duper" mode and the various tweaks from this excellent read by @caulfieldOwen – I've been sorely missing the similar functionality that used to exist in #Karabiner before they had to dumb it down for macOS Sierra. https://t.co/jxg7uwLyso #vim

When hiring permanent programmers, as opposed to contractors, knowledge of a particular programming language is the least important criterion.
