Thoughts from when I was younger • Engineer @netlify.com • He/him
If you use Scheduled Functions on @netlify.com, this one is for you.

You can now manually trigger your functions from the logs page.

Since scheduled functions only run automatically on production deploys, testing with deploy previews was a bit awkward. No more!

At @netlify.com, we use Netlify to build Netlify.

This is a small anecdote of a customer who sent us a feature request regarding our Blobs product: they wanted to delete entries and entire stores from the UI.

We used Netlify Agent Runners to build this and shipped it to production in record time.

As a community, we need to decide whether we still care about the language as the fabric that binds us together.

As companies, we have the responsibility to balance our business goals with the interests of the community we’re part of (and from which we profit).

A while ago I wrote a blog post called "You should know this before choosing Next.js" and wow that is such a versatile title.

This is a post about my grandma. She was born in 1928 and she had an incredible life. In her early twenties, with three small children, she lost her husband. I can't begin to imagine how scary it must've been to be a single mother of three in 1950s Portugal, but she pulled through.

Idea: an em dash certification programme.

If the system can find content using em dashes that has been verifiably authored by you before the proliferation of LLMs, you get verified as an OG em dash user.

I have just bankrupted my two little nephews at Monopoly. I saw their hopes and dreams vanish into thin air as they handed me their cash; and yet I showed no mercy. What kind of monster am I?

This has been haunting me for months. What could I possibly have done to get a bad review from an Uber driver?

I want to add a new feature to eduardoboucas.com and I think it could be fun to do it live.

Join me and let’s vibe this thing together!

Tomorrow, August 1st, at 4pm UTC.

For 20 years Mozilla has developed one of the most useful tools for web devs.

Congrats to the MDN team on an awesome milestone. I'm happy that we've played a small part in its history and I'm excited to see it continue to be at the core of every web dev's job.

At @netlify.com, we've quietly released something that I’m really proud of. With a single npm package, you can now run the full Netlify platform right in your local environment, with a minimalist API built on web standards.

The internet: “Yes.”

Support for conditional writes has landed in Netlify Blobs.

The `set` and `setJSON` now let you perform create-only and update-only atomic operations.

For example, here's how you can use the `onlyIfNew` option to write an entry only if the key is new.
