Dan is not only an awesome professional and a great mentor, but his GIF/joke game is also spot on. Above all, though, he’s a great human being. Anyone looking for a leader in tech—this is THE GUY! 🙌
got laid off unexpectedly today from running postmark eng. that's life i guess. will be looking around for an eng manager spot or if anyone wants to throw a referral my way. best team i've ever had and coolest product i've worked on hands down. sad day.

Adapt and move forward. That’s always the move. There’s always a new iPhone, language, diet—the list goes on. No need to chase every new toy. The key is to keep learning, stay curious, and embrace changes.
12 years into my career, and for the first time I couldn't answer the question: what's next? It was winter of 2025. My feed was wall-to-wall Opus 4.5 hype (Anthropic's latest model), and my head was spinning. In a dark room rocking my one-year-old son to sleep, headphones in, I pressed play on a video Adam Wathan had just posted. He'd titled it "We had six months left." It was the moment that changed everything for me. If you remember the post, you probably felt it too. @adamwathan , the creator of Tailwindcss, opened up about the struggles Tailwind was having. Usage was up due to AI, but revenue was down, because LLMs didn't bring site traffic, which Adam's business relied on. Because of this, he had to lay off most of his staff. This was one of many stories like it. Suddenly I couldn't tell you how much of my 12 years still counted. Up until that point I didn't want to admit how big this shift was, but now there was no denying it. That night forced me to have the conversation I'd been avoiding, and ask myself: what's next for me? The way I saw it, the developer role had fundamentally changed, with parts of it being replaced by AI, some areas modified, and new responsibilities added. That realization left me with 3 paths I could take. I could keep doing what I'd always done and hope this blows over. But if the change is real, that's just failing slowly. I could get bitter and walk away, failing right away. Or I could do what developers and businesses did after the dot-com crash: accept the new landscape, figure out what actually changed and what still holds true, and play by the new rules. For developers now, this looks like new tools, new workflows, and an entirely different way of looking at the job. What it actually becomes, I don't exactly know. There's no playbook for handling decades' worth of change in a few short years. Nobody prepped us for this. We're figuring it out together. What I do know is that a new world means the death of some old ways, and the birth of ways we've never seen. And the only way out of this confusion is through.

Today at 8 a.m., we said our goodbyes to you, Pypyk. All these years with you by our side made life so much better. 💛 Thank you for all the memories we’ll carry with us. We love you and miss you dearly already. We know you’re munching on the cheese up there. 😭🖤

The long-awaited drink rivalry finally happened: Coke vs. Pepsi.🥤@alanacapcreates brought questionable stats, AI-generated evidence & TypeScript opinions. I brought facts, logic & superior taste. Minds weren’t changed, friendships survived, and we both left overly carbonated.

What better way to combat this week’s @CommitYourCode FOMO bug than by revisiting this gem? Bookmark is goated 😎

🍕 Another Pizza.js meetup! We dove into Omarchy, the beautiful Arch Linux-based OS, and talked about what makes it such an interesting setup for developers. Enjoyed our time with the local dev community, learning something new, and nerding out over tech.

Bummed I can’t make @CommitYourCode this year. My paw little one isn’t doing well, so she needs us right now. 🐾 All of you attending have a blast for me! Try that Texas Twinkie, meet new people, and get motivated to keep pushing! Hope to be there for the next one 🫶

We are ALMOST at a total that will have us reaching a combined $55,000 donated to charity over the course of the last 3 conferences! Don't ever think a $40 tech conference ticket can't make an impact in the lives of others!

Un ejemplo de que no importa de donde naciste. La solidaridad y unión siempre ganan.
Me da risa q los medios nacionales entrevisten a kali uchis presentándola como extranjera, estadounidense pero apenas le dan el micrófono empieza a hablar lo más pereirana posible
