Went from hearing about AI to using AI every day for work and personal things in 6 months 🤯 What's your favorite AI tool? I'm leaning towards Claude.

I am! Not in the same capacity. Life hit me pretty hard and I've found another hobby I'm obsessing about that takes up most of my time. Thanks for acking my return ❤️

Chrome only keeps 90 days of history. That’s a joke. I got tired of losing old tabs, so I built Chrome History Exporter — it automatically pulls your cross-device Chrome history and makes it searchable locally with Alfred. Check it out 👇 github.com/simeg/chrome-hist…

I feel more like a product manager than an engineer working with Claude CLI. I tell it what features I want and it does the engineering for me. I have mixed feelings about it.. 😄

Hey friends—this is a non-tech post. Been away from X a few years battling depression. I finally beat it. My doctors agree 🙌 Sooo grateful for my partner and friends. Never lost my interest for tech so hoping to be more active here. Looking forward to connecting to you all! ❤️

After 10 years as a software engineer, I wrote the DevOps book I wished I’d had as a beginner: Commit to Cloud. ✅ GitHub Actions ✅ AWS ✅ Real pipelines, not toy examples Perfect weekend project for your future self. Only $10. Learn more 👇 prplcode.gumroad.com/l/commi…

New: git-x. A grab bag of Git subcommands that should’ve shipped with Git: rename-branch, prune-branches, graph, summary, undo. github.com/simeg/git-x

Been off social a while. Used to blog, now I mostly ship code. Two projects you might like: git-x → Git CLI extensions for smoother workflows github.com/simeg/git-x bash-cli-spinners → Spinners for Bash/Zsh scripts github.com/simeg/bash-cli-sp…

FE development has improved a lot even since I started working with it about 7 years ago. So much better today 😌

I think I'm part of that group of new devs. This make sense!

Interesting! Never used it at scale.

Yeah, not sure. I've used it some and it's really much better than native JS.

I never understood the jQuery hate 🤔 It offers an improved API for managing the DOM (and more!). It powers A LOT of websites. It's great!

I use iTerm. It fits my needs so never considered trying something else. What do you like about @warpdotdev?

My terminal definitely. I spend a lot of time there and I have customized it to the way I want it

Totally agree!

What libraries do you use to test your JavaScript code?
