React? Lucky. I wrote Closure (with an S) at GOOG in anger 5 years ago, and only stopped because I switched teams.

Thank you! Google’s tooling was, hands down, the worst I have ever encountered. I did 10 years at GOOG, 3 at AMZN, 4 in research, and another 5 at companies you have heard of but w…

Cool project, but my question is: what are those buttons?

“Line of work”? I’m fascinated by this. Diner waitress? Cop? Carnie? Cockney bingo caller?

Man, don’t be a “hero” trying to restore a lower ping to someone trying to buy a kindle in Jeddah.

Technically, this is not a QR code. Under ISO 18004, QR codes must be 1cm x 1cm or larger.

Is there a way to use the official Claude web app with GitHub providers other than GitHub? I’ve put a decent amount of effort into moving away from there, I don’t want to go back.

I picked up one of the cheap 32x32 Bluetooth displays for a few bucks at a thrift store recently, and have had a lot of fun with it, but the upload speed makes it unsuitable for an…

GHArchive is updated constantly, but the tables reflect COMPLETED time periods. So there’s no yearly/2025, yet. You have to look at the monthlies. Source: just left GOOG after 5 ye…
