blog post: you need to use this HTML feature yesterday!! IT's so semantic and beautiful!! Get rid of all you custom code!!
end of the post: Actually, there is no support in Firefox or Safari YET, you need to use polyfills, screen-reader support is limited, BUT just give it time 🙏

People treating LinkedIn like Facebook make me feel like they need to incorporate work into everything they do.

why trouble thyself with CSS-in-JS when you could have a little walk-in-the-wilderness. a little peace-in-your-heart. why waste thy hours comparing runtime environments when you could be spending time running in the environment

I'm deleting my Telegram account. Too much spam, and having to pay to block incoming messages from non-contacts is hostile UI and frankly against what I thought the app stood for.

When browsing public domain, I somehow always run into this picture from the Amundsen south pole expedition.

My side project keeps getting bigger in scope, but I'm trying to enjoy the ride. If it ends up going nowhere at least I learned something.

Am losing my mind here.... Can typescript not correctly infer types of keys that were destructured from an object, if the object was passed as a generic type? But the remainder of the object is still correctly typed??

Anyone has an elegant way to work with this?

What's stopping you from implementing your toggle as a single element?

it's kinda sad that digital work is so hidden

like there's no messy study room or bookshelves full of works you've read or letters from people and gizmos and widgets you've built or stacks of drawings and diagrams

it's all just, hidden in folders, already lost in space, and eventually lost to time

i think my worst trait is that my approach to software is very similar to my approach to cooking: i really hate the idea of buying anything that i know how to make myself
