My own personal experience, but my 80 year old FIL changed a lot after he started going to dance classes. He was always in decent physical health, but prior to the classes he was a…

Senior Engineer tends to be a catch-all phrase for people who have 3+ years of experience but, for whatever reason, are getting into the next level of promotions (Staff for IC/TLs,…

hey! I was wondering if you'd be willing to explain what project references are and why you would do test config this way?

I'm spending the summer in Canada, where they invest a lot in third spaces, and the difference between Canada and the US in this regard is night and day. - Parks: A lot of them, ev…

I really appreciated this way of looking at HTMX! Thank you!

Have you used vercel before? It's a lot more than just a layer on AWS. They really understand specifically what Front end engineers need to be productive with their external stakeh…

I love me a daily planner, personally. I like having a page per day to organize my thoughts by hand.

There's a notion of "empty commits" (commits without messages) in JJ. These are basically the "staging area" of git, and if you try to `jj git push` it JJ will reject. So these com…

It's been my daily driver for the last 3 months, and it's really amazing. Highly recommend trying it out!

I am a fan of the dev branch strategy [1], where I have a specific commit that holds all my customizations that I rebase off of. This blog post has it set up such that git automati…

I use Jiujitsu, and my personal experience is that the basic "write code, git add what specifically I want to history" flow is the same. The working commit is the effective staging…

A while ago I watched this highly disturbing documentary produced by Vice about the prevalence of rape in the DRC as a weapon of war and terror against women. [1]. I have to imagin…

When I started meditating, one of the first things I noticed was how I would stop breathing the moment I got on a computer. Kind of mindblowing that this issue is effecting many pe…

I had the opposite experience when my grandparents died -- I watched everybody in my family cling on to ventilators, invasive treatments, and chemotherapy, for both of them to die …

> This is because, Artificial Intelligence is very much unlike Human Intelligence. What an interesting, nuanced take. Thanks for sharing, you've given me a lot to think about.

gorgeous!! did you build the ui yourself or did you use a package to help? how did that go?

Not the original poster, but I do the same. I have a private "therapy/ranting journal" that I use to just write out all my negative thoughts and dump it in there. I find it extreme…

I meet a ton of people at the gym

Hmm, I think there are some kinds of universal cultural expectations that the Deep Springers I know have tended to defy. Imagine someone went to Harvard, you'd expect that they hav…

I'm married to a Deep Springer. I've been lucky to go there once, during the Centennial. Yes, they are brilliant. Yes, they are hilariously weird and counter-cultural. The college …

I didn't know this had a name! This was by far my favorite property of ChakraUI. Thanks!

I recommend trying to build it in something like Minecraft or Roblox. They both have rudimentary environments that are already set up with things like 3D and controls, and can be p…

One con: Pens dry out! If you're not regularly writing with them, the vast majority of pens (minus the Platinum ones) will dry out. Yes, my 20 year old ballpoint pen has dried out.…
