As a testament to the impact: Here's a screenshot I saved back in 2017 where you picked one of my Pens. Approximately one year later, we were co-workers!

Trying to motivate my kids to go above & beyond in doing housework (mowing the lawn, washing cars, etc.). Money seems to be the best reward right now, but I never have cash on hand.

Neighbor found a stray kitten in their yard. Apparently we have a reputation, so they knew to come to us. Now I have a Junior Developer working with me while we try to find her a forever home.

I had a rechargeable battery pack that attached to the back, but I don't think it lasted a fraction as long as the 20 AAs the GameGear regularly took. It was a chonky beast.
Speaking of Genesis & Chonky: Did you ever see the Sega Nomad? Full handheld Genesis that ate batteries even faster than GG.

Button elements are always finicky to work with.
I think the problem is that containers can't be sized by their contents, and the button is based on its text content.

Excellent use of the 2.0 Editor! 👏
Note that Embeds are available in the New Editor if you go through the Omnibar. The UI button in the Share menu is mistakenly greyed out, but I have a fix coming for that.

I'm certain that @jason.energy's clock needs to be calibrated because it felt like way less than four hours. 👀
It was incredibly fun working alongside other amazing developers. Thanks so much to Jason for hosting us. 🙌

Last month, I paired up with my coding compadre, @davidkpiano.bsky.social, to be on an episode of @codetv.dev's Web Dev Challenge. In four hours, we built an AI-powered virtual DJ with a 3D timeline 😮💨

My workspace (aka the family computer desk) in 2001, taken on a digital camera with a resolution of 320x240. My digital stomping grounds where I learned to code, gamed on a tiny CRT TV and figured out how to get around the home school software's fullscreen lock. Simpler times.

Winding down an old domain and... oops. Looks like some folks are hotlinking an old jQuery library I built. Guess that's gonna break a few things. 🙃
