I don’t know how to use Twitter any more. I get alerts when people I follow post, but when I open the app I just see walls of stuff I don’t want to see. This used to be my favourite place to get inspiration from 🙁

Dear programmers of all the apps I use: No I don't want to choose between DD/MM/YYYY and MM/DD/YYYY, I want the only sensible format which is YYYY-MM-DD.

Been trying @GitHubCopilot for a little while now and currently it’s slowing me down as much as it’s speeding me up. Does anyone have any power user tips?

Me: can you give improvement this code I wrote… ChatGPT: this appears well-written, maybe add some comments. I’ll take that as a win.

Me three days ago: I don’t have much spare time but I can build this thing in a couple of days if I just write simple JS. Current status: About 10% done, currently building a monadic wrapper for express. #CodingForFun

Just tried @JetBrains_Fleet. Initial impression is that it feels more like it’s geared towards enticing VSCode users rather than giving JetBrains users the VSCode experience? I may have misinterpreted its purpose but I will stick with it for a while and see if I grow to love it.
