I don't post much on twitter anymore, but wanted to say thanks to the @Cloudflare folks working on the redesign. I put it on blast a few months back for being hard to navigate - it has been much more pleasurable to use as of late.

The first thing I did at @tryramp was set up distributed tracing, structured logging, and metrics for Inspect, our background coding agent. We now have full visibility in to everything the system is doing: the browser, CF workers/DOs, @modal sandboxes, database calls, etc. Most importantly, Inspect now has visibility in to itself. It can self-triage runtime errors it encounters and create PRs to fix them. Every morning, it reviews the past 24 hours of its own @datadoghq dashboard, identifies systemic issues, new errors, and long tail latencies, and has a summary + PR waiting for me at 9am.

I haven't tweeted in a minute, might as well shout something out super inflammatory. @Cloudflare I genuinely believe one of your biggest obstacles for entering a more consumer-focused market (with enterprise follow-up) is your absolutely god-awful UX situation.

I love Cloudflare's product offering, but I am unable to recommend it. This is a shared sentiment with many I've talked to. Out of the 29 open position, not one is for Front-End development. Not one is for a UX researcher or designer. This seems like a mistake.

The solution here is hiring an executive (NOT a consultant) with focus over directly this problem. You need someone with power to say "no, adding one more button or level of indirection will make the product worse".

Been avoiding full-screening applications on my macbook for 2 months now. Major improvement in usability. Window management is annoying and MacOS makes the problem so much more difficult due to the animated transitions between full screen applications.

If you learn to tab between things and learn some shortcuts to move windows around (using raycast for this), it gets so much easier to switch between contexts.

Happy @LumaHQ has become a thing. It felt weird that no one was able to upset Meetup's hold on the meetup scene.

I would pay for a meal plan that figures out how to regulate my energy levels. I’m sure it’s a case by case thing, but I hate falling into food comas and losing 3 hours of productive work during the day

AI application tools have strengthened the importance of individual connections. Credit card terminals have encouraged cash transactions. We're tech enhancing ourselves back a decade.

Absolutely blown away by the quality of podcast episodes from @dwarkesh_sp. Incredibly engaging guests, but more importantly an actually intelligent host who consistently asks direct and fascinating questions. Highly recommend listening.

`.href` and `.getAttribute('href')` will often return different things if your attribute is using a relative route i.e. /route vs website܂com/route The `.href` property will resolve to the full absolute route, even if that's not what is in the HTML.

TIL HTTP/2 does not support statusText. You should effectively ignore this field on Response objects in any application.

I have so many git branches. Switching between them gets super annoying since my names often aren't descriptive enough. I want to know about upstream PRs, how recent, content descriptions, etc. I got a temporary from here with a small modification: elijahmanor.com/byte/git-rec…

You can improve the output with the double verbose flag and the respective --color and --ansi flags. This gives you: git branch -vv --sort=-committerdate --color | fzf --ansi --header Checkout | xargs git checkout
