What an interesting new survey... about Developers, but all about non-code questions.

The results should be interesting to view when they come out.

What are songs where you knew the lyrics wrong for years?

Drift Away: Uncle Kracker
Oh, give me the beach boys, and free my soul
I wanna get lost in your rock 'n' roll and drift away

Paperback Writer: The Beatles
So I wanna be a take the back right turn

Man, I just had the greatest time!

My middle child had his first programming assignment in high school and I sat down with him as he showed me his first version.

He wrote Wordle in Python.

Time flew! It was a blast. So good.

Check out `pnpx create-tsrouter-app`. It creates applications like create-react-app, but with TanStack and Vite under the hood. youtu.be/10J6RyMOxN0

Started a push-up challenge with my boys this year. We are shooting to do 100 in one set eventually.

Here was my workout last night... 125 reps across 5 sets in 8 minutes. I have a long way to go, but I'm pleased with the progress.

Just hit the “publish” button on a brand-new blog post! ⭐

This one shares the killer pattern I find myself using over and over with container queries: responding *within* media queries to adapt to the new container size.

Once you start using this trick, you’ll see opportunities for it all over. 😄

I tried the new focus feature from @raycast.com www.raycast.com/core-feature... and apparently I triggered a IT-SecOps alert where they found Suspicious browser manipulations or access. I'm trying to get that resolved ATM. Cool feature BTW

gh-dash is a great in-terminal way to view details of active PRs for your github repos

going to the browser (a major context switch) to view PR details can be distracting and requires navigating around github

plus, it's a `gh` plugin, which you might already be using

😮 Big React news: they’re adding first-class View Transition support! 🎉

This’ll make it so much easier to add transitions on route change, among other use cases. The PR was merged earlier today, so it may be available soon!

Had my yearly doctor check-up.

I consider it a "win" because I didn't faint during the blood draw!

However, the nurse seemed annoyed when I warned her that I faint easily. Oh well, at least they knew

👋 Back to work today after a nice long break. It was a great time of being with family, doing home projects, and relaxing. Thankful I like my job, but I'm grateful for the breather. I also feel blessed to take such an extended break. I know not everyone has that flexibility. How was your break?

big time quality-of-life setting for your global git config

`git config --global diff.wsErrorHighlight all`

this will ensure that anytime you run a `git diff`, any extraneous whitespace that is being added or removed will be highlighted, otherwise you can't see what about the line changed
