@mcdonamw @Bungie I've been working professionally as a software engineer since 2005 and I love these! It's always fun to get a peek in to how other development teams work, especially ones that are creating a game that you love. So, I guess they're making these posts for me.

[Dean Davidson @PdxDavidson]

@chris_csguy @peterbourgon Right - the fact that he is doubling down on it instead of simply apologizing speaks volumes. It makes one wonder if this is the kind of narcissistic and rude behavior that, over time, resulted in a ban.

[Dean Davidson @PdxDavidson]

@Kujay_ Yes, you were clearly the only person who knew that 2-tapping with 120s was a problem.

[Dean Davidson @PdxDavidson]

@kenhowardpdx It highly depends on what you're rolling out and where. My current bread and butter app only has 4 environments and I have done quite a bit to make my devops as simple as possible.

[Dean Davidson @PdxDavidson]

@girldlck @Kujay_ Hey now, don't let numbers or logic get in the way of Kujay's completely uninformed tweet!

[Dean Davidson @PdxDavidson]

@Kujay_ Right - that's why on older consoles when you go to preview an item in your vault you have to wait for the 3D model to load in. You know, the one that the already loaded because of lazy @Bungie. ;)

This is the most ridiculous thing I've read in a while. What is your source here?

@KyleBlessing @Originalfluff_ Man - with all the shit that's gone down in 2020/1, imagine trying to beat down another human for trying to promote themselves on twitter and get a job. Keep it up, bless. If memory serves, @ProZD got his first major gig via a silly meme YT video he made.

@GDLKscrub My issue happened to be fixed WITHOUT power, but it takes straight up USB power so you probably have a usb power supply / wall adapter you could use to test.

@BungieHelp I need clarification on Belmon's algorithm. Does "Incoming Void and aerial damage increased" mean I take more damage while I am in the air? Or that damage from enemies in the air to me is increased? It means the latter, correct?

[Dean Davidson @PdxDavidson]

@arvalis I went to the "Power University" website linked on that image and it's 100% about how not to be a "Beta Male" with quotes like "That’s why a low quality, unprincipled woman, could get to me years ago". WTF is wrong with these people?

[Dean Davidson @PdxDavidson]

@PSUPERCY The "retired hitman" story is fake according to snopes (and reading it, it sounded 100% stupid/fake to me anyway): https://t.co/irk9R3cpFN

As an @angular developer, I find this to be a massive bummer; the inner turmoil also jives with what the external community saw with #ivy. It's for sure worth a read: https://t.co/0RiWrcfJq9

This new Thundercat video is getting me through the day: https://t.co/bineHytJlg

One of the many reasons it is important to be able to navigate @code using keyboard only. (my mouse is under there somewhere...)

[Dean Davidson @PdxDavidson]

@tannerlinsley Dude. So much this. I inherited a project where they use NgRx for *everything*, so everything in the app is part of the "global state", and it's ridiculous. Every time I rip something that's not global state out of the state library, I squash multiple bugs. Every. Time.

[Dean Davidson @PdxDavidson]

Do you use reactive or template-driven forms on your #Angular projects? https://t.co/f8tU5o2ape

[Dean Davidson @PdxDavidson]

@blaadeeblaa @addyosmani @dhh @domfarolino @annevk @zcorpan Agreed. In all of my implementations of lazy loading, I have loaded the images *before* they come into view (like when the user gets within, say, 1,000px of a given image, load it). It mostly solves that image pop-in problem you're referring to.

[Dean Davidson @PdxDavidson]

@eu_west_3 @eu_frey @addyosmani @dhh @domfarolino @annevk @zcorpan Yeah - somebody pointed out a fundamental flaw in his library and he marked it as deprecated just now. I tested it and got the same result. See this issue for more details: https://t.co/eT3SgisWAF

Congratulations to the @TinyGolang team. This project has been on my radar for a while and is, IMHO, one of the most interesting things happening in the #golang ecosystem.

[TinyGo @TinyGolang]

Breaking news from the #golang devroom here at #FOSDEM2020 that we are very excited to share with you: #tinygo is now officially a Google sponsored project!

[Dean Davidson @PdxDavidson]

#ILikeBernie and, even though I loathe politics, I just donated to his campaign. Again. Thanks for the reminder.
