Six decades later, Star Trek may still be the only franchise based on the ideas that diversity is strength, justice is the measure of civilization, bounty is to be shared, peace is worth the price, and all these things can be achieved.

We need more shows that look ahead and find goodness.

With a fully remote team of just 20 employees, Bluesky has surpassed 20 million users in its first year since opening to the public and is stealing thunder from rivals hundreds of times its size.

At a time when conventional wisdom among bosses is that workers must be in-person to be productive.

I've said this before but I'm saying it again: when you're looking at your job, you should have:

- Good pay
- Good culture
- Good growth opportunities

If you have 2/3, it's not too bad, but 0 or 1/3, you might want to question why you're still at that job.

Remember how Twitter used to be phenomenal for career development? Let’s take it back. Let’s make connections and get people hired. @patak.dev @brandonroberts.dev I think we need a “JavaScript Maintainers for Hire” starter pack.

If you sell any type of B2B software, jumping on a call with a customer is the number one way to get great feedback and build relationships. I know as developers we hate that, but it works.

I just saw @mattpocockuk.bsky.social's post, and I wonder if a flash mob where we all post a 🦋 at the same time in X could make some ripples. As in scheduling a post for tomorrow, October 31, 7 am PST 👀

New to Blue Sky? This is handy!
I’ve just update the Laravel starter pack (with some great suggestions from @cmorrell.com).

Lots of good people to follow here:
