You know the hardest part about being an unemployed engineer? Finding any job basically requires you to make shit up on your resume. 15 years writing code for a living means your an absolute pariah to any "normal" job.

I've been the manager of projects valued in seven figures, but you won't hire me to manage a gas station 🤬🤣

What browsers versions does your company support officially? Maybe I'm old, but is that even a concern for modern developers on the frontend?

Instead, I click the Bluetooth icon here and my headphones disconnected. Simple UX works!
Google, maybe Samsung, do better with your UI regarding Bluetooth devices! I'm connected to this device, but what battery level it's at could be very easily displayed. It's a maximum of a 3 digit number with a percent symbol. 4 characters.

Anyone on Linux have issues with Chrome and audio recently? I'm trying to watch a video, thought it might be my Bluetooth headphones, but nope... No audio on my laptop speakers, I switch to Firefox and everything is working...

Great write-up on GitHub migrating their design system and applications from CSS-in-JS to vanilla CSS modules! github.blog/engineering/arch…

"Describe how your use of AI workflows have impacted your output" is an insulting question in an interview if I've had to review the output for accuracy and often find issues with it. Like, my knowledge in my field means absolutely fuck all.

My wife brought home some canned chipotle peppers in adobo sauce. Tiny, little cans. I added a full one to a large batch tomato soup I was making... Big mistake. 🥵🥵🥵🥵🥵

Jesus fucking Christ. 20 years of creating products, ear buds and any wireless headphones can absolutely go fuck themselves. A wired pair of headphones are not only better in sound quality for less money, I can't drop half of them and then never be able to find it.

This might be obvious to some, but the & in CSS nesting doesn't have to come first. 🤯 Put it after another selector and the relationship flips. You're styling the element based on what surrounds it, not what's inside it.

ECMAScript excitement 😉 Congrats to my coworker @acutmore @TechAtBloomberg on advancing Await Dictionary to Stage 3 at @TC39 🎉 Promise.all returns positional results as an array. Promise.allKeyed allows named results inside an object 👍

Went to a rave today, I mean.... I got my eyes checked.

The kids went peach picking with their grandfather and grandmother. I've made peach cobbler from canned peaches a few times before, this was my attempt to make the syrup in the can from scratch 😅

Had an interview with a company that then asked me to do a code review of a Wordle implementation as if it was a new employee's pull request. I was rejected for not directly pointing out how it wasn't working like Wordle functions

My first comment in the review was "This technically functions, but I have no context on the requirements. Please provide that in the future". I play Wordle every day, I knew it wasn't right... I could have said it was broken, but I went the other route. 🤦🤬

You might want to warn your friends that switch to Linux, the updates are quite sizable at times. Maybe a week since I've run Discover to check for updates on my laptop, and I'm downloading 7.8gb of updates at the moment.

Them: What's your management style? Me: I want my direct reports to take my job one day. 🤷
