ask his direct reports, they’ll say “pressed tab a few times and deleted your middle school teacher’s pension”

One of my favourite lil’ side projects was a synthesizer I built almost a decade ago.
I’m digging into the code, and it’s actually not terrible? I’m surprised. 😂

the sentry devrel team (@whitep4nth3r.com , @guthals.com , @nikolovlazar.com) does an absolutely kick-ass job at creating our devrel experience, far beyond just cranking out (insanely good) content.
if you're also in this world, this is worth a read!!
if you're also in this world, this is worth a read!!
I've been working with @guthals.com to define a content framework that is optimised for DevRel success at @sentry.io, which started with an exercise to categorise existing content.
Bonus: I've created a spreadsheet template you can use to do the classification exercise with your own content.

Optimizing type perf is like an even less intuitive version of optimizing code for V8.
Some stuff that looks super expensive is actually irrelevant; some stuff that looks innocuous is actually a massive problem.
All you can do is learn heuristics, iterate and pray 🙏
