Nice, did the same last week. There's just something about the time and place that was made...

Listen, if you decide to schedule a client meeting during lunch in the meeting room that's right next to the table-tennis table, don't come storming out and complaining it's too loud.

I had the PR for this pop into my inbox a few weeks back, was cool to listen to it on the way to work this morning. Especially like the ads for local Hawkins businesses.

One of my favourite things about the Zen browser is that it opens email links in a sort of overlay window with the option of actually making it a tab.

Not being from a CS background these are the things I didn't think I'd be looking into as a frontend developer:
1. Reverse Polish Notation
2 Shunting-yard algorithms

I gotta say, every time I see posts (here, LinkedIn, etc) with AI generated images, my eyes glaze over

Half of UK companies to invest in AI instead of staff Rising costs blamed, although any excuse to do more with less

Sooo, reading this another way, in light of the current state of things...UK companies looking to invest in hiring predictive-text apps instead of employees.

I think this might work out?

I mean, SPAs are all good and everything, but if I've got to scroll for like a minute to get to the end, maybe you need some pages in there...

TIL the TypeScript compiler doesn't like yarn's pnp situation, it really wants those node_modules there

I used to always use NoSQL databases in my projects (MongoDB, etc) but since using Drizzle, SQL has some of the sting taken out of it and I'm really into having these tables!

Every time I get to work on my personal project, I'm really happy using Zed. Just wanted to share

I'm not the first to say this, I won't be the last...just because you can talk on speakerphone doesn't mean you always need to talk on speakerphone

I've been messing around with other editors...Zed and Pulsar. Keep running into issues with both but like the look more than VS Code!

Same here. Didn't have a computer at home. Wrote out what I was going to do in a notebook, then went to the library to type it up in Notepad

Electric Dreams | Tate Modern

Had the day off today, went to check out Electric Dreams at the Tate Modern.

A lot going on in this show, but was cool to see some early computer-assisted and math-based art
