I woke up at 4AM Sweden time to use the bathroom. Went to bed at 12:30AM Sweden time. It’s now 8:02PM and I haven’t slept since 4AM. I’m fucking dead. I have NO idea how I’m still standing at this point. International travel fucks me all up and I NEVER get on track until I’m home.

Are there any frontend meetups happening in Stockholm at the beginning of next week? I'd be down to swing through and do a talk.

I'm flying to @Jfokus after I leave @halfstackconf this week and I have ZERO clue how to navigate Sweden. I saw that Stockholm is on City Mapper. Is there a tube system or anything?

Does anyone have any resources on how to do a split video with your face on the top half and code/website on the bottom half when shooting in portrait mode?

I can't find any resources out there to do it. I am doing a series of videos at work and want to do them this way.

I’m gonna build a project and going to send it with a code assistant tool. I’m not calling it vibe coding cuz that shit’s whack. “Chill” coding is honestly a better term.

What’s the BEST tool to use that will do it ALL. Frontend, backend, database?

The amount of dudes I see walk out of the bathroom without washing their hands is disgusting as fuck. Wash your hands, you nasty fucks. Probably anti-vaxxers.

Even when I tried, I didn't know how to open a terminal in the editor or toggle the file tree and switch the cursor back and forth between the file tree and the editor window. I can exit vim though so I guess that is a plus.
I wish I could learn how to use Vim/Neovim. The whole thing and even have a dope theme and setup off the rip so I can look more like a hacker when I work in public.

That agent deserves to be arrested, tried for murder, and sent to prison for life.
JD Vance: "It was a legitimate law enforcement operation. We were going door to door to try to find criminal illegal aliens and deport them from the United States ... say a prayer for that agent ... he deserves a debt of gratitude."

If you can't remember the Wi-Fi password of your place of business because it is too long and you don't take the time to figure it out for your patrons, that is a problem.
