I am interested in building things that have practical utility and working on things that challenge my intellect.

Did someone say #Windows98?

All this talk about Apple's M1 chip is really making me think 👀.

I’m usually not a big fan of picture colorization with AI but I have to admit it can be very cool. Love this new Nintendo's HQ from 1889! 😍 #Kyoto

Feels like I'm about to spend more in the next month (on non essentials) than I have in the last 3, but whatever!

[JC Gonzalez @programmer1718]

Literally me. Been on the fence about building a gaming PC for a while... The idea has been creeping up since August 2020, gradually gaining momentum, and last weekend I finally bought a CPU, so I've now officially started.

I use Firefox for Android and for a while now I've had the infinity symbol instead of an actual tab count 😬.

[ShiroiBoy @shiroiboy999]

I officially have 100 tabs open in Chrome.

[JC Gonzalez @programmer1718]

Yes.

@Target FYI - Your website errors out when I select the option to wrap something as a gift for $5.99. I get a generic error saying something went wrong, to please review errors and try again, but there are no error details. If I uncheck the box and proceed, it works.

@shanselman Scott, I've followed you for some time and really appreciate both you as a person, and your content. Just read this and felt sad to hear of the amount of pain you're in. I wholeheartedly wish you find relief from it. I personally know it to be possible, and believe you can too.

JavaScript refactoring tip! 👇

Replacing switch statements for object literals.

- They admit functions
- We can pass them as object params
- We can stringily them
- Easier to debug
- ...

@benawad A new JS framework

[JC Gonzalez @programmer1718]

Spent an afternoon debugging an Angular app. No luck. Frustration levels maxed. Coworker comes and in 1 min says "let's put a console log here" (I was using the debugger all along). Boom, my problem pin pointed. I forgot to check the console. For hours. I feel dumb. #debugging

Do you know the difference between these two CSS properties?

display: none
and
visibility: hidden

If you want to hide the element and its occupied space, use display: none;

visibility: hidden; will hide the element but the space it occupies will remain

#JavaScript tip for today:

When "console-logging" several variables, you can wrap them in curly brackets to better see which value belongs to which variable.

A small thing, but hey.

We frequently spend hours fixing bugs that could have been avoided by a ten minute test.
Remember, if you haven't seen your code run, you don't know if it works. Write a test.

@jonsequitur This makes me happy. Recently started giving VS Code a chance as my IDE for .NET development and it's been mostly fine, but I really miss the C# Interactive window... Really looking forward to this 🤩.
