@ItsChrisGreene @notcapnamerica @pauljosephallan As someone who was born and raised in the ozarks, I can confirm that poor genetics and birthplace are still no excuse for being a racist bigot. 😁

@notcapnamerica @pauljosephallan Nope…it’s their genetics.

Are white people okay? 🥴

Nationalism comes with a cost. Our humanity is that cost.

Real programmer question: Why are folks so afraid of chaining PRs? I’ve done this for years in order to make smaller PRs that are easier to review. GitHub even auto-rebases the next PR after the first gets merged. Would love to hear viewpoints on this.

Inspired as a high school student on a @FIRSTweets robotics team. Today the team I am on, is about to do something extraordinary.

@GeoffCrittenden @j_c_fitz I’m always for better naming of functions, but it doesn’t always happen and sometimes can still be ambiguous. I’d still rather have an explicit return. Recently I’ve had to dig 3 functions deep just to figure out if something was even intended to be returned.

Programming hot take: Ruby’s implicit returns are an anti-pattern and should not be used. Why should I have to look up the last function that is called just to see if it has a return value?

This is America. 😢

The United States of America. Where our officials take an oath to uphold the 4th and then invoke the 5th.

@RealSexyCyborg Many women will die because of this decision, and far more women will be forced to carry offspring for their abusers. The long-range consequences of this decision are simply unfathomable.

I'm so sorry US friends😢

@RealSexyCyborg I’m not sure that a 2-engineer team would be solving the same kinds of problems a 20-engineer team would, so this becomes difficult to compare.

Oddly enough I don't think this is universal. The larger the group of Western engineers you have, the less they are able to maintain consensus and be productive. eg. 2 Aus engineers can (usually) run rings around 2 Chinese, but 20 Chinese engineers can run rings around 20 Aus.

“…getting the public to associate the hippies with marijuana and blacks with heroin and then criminalizing both heavily, we could…raid their homes…and vilify them night after night…Did we know we were lying about the drugs? Of course we did.”—John Erlichman, Nixon top adviser

Don’t forget, friends, that those in power have been trying to drive a wedge between us for over 60 years. Please remember that people with different views are still human, just like you and me.

One of my two most favorite quotes: “Do the best you can. Then when you know better, do better.” #MayaAngelou

@wesbos Brings to mind a quote from Brian Kernighan: “Everyone knows that debugging is twice as hard as writing a program in the first place. So if you're as clever as you can be when you write it, how will you ever debug it?”

Like I'm just glad there are people out there that can write this type of stuff so we can just use it. It's a whole langauge I do wish you could just write this advanced stuff in.. JavaScript?

TypeScript has so many layers to it. The deeper you get, the more you realize there are some next level type ninjas out there that work on high level typings for libs and frameworks.

So excited to try this out! The team did a great job on this!

@eevblog Yeah that domain is definitely legit 🤣

Seems legit.

I made a meme y’all. 🤣

@csmikle @storybookjs @uxpin @styleguidist @redwoodjs Looks like you can iterate named exports if you import them with a * stackoverflow.com/questions/3867…

@storybookjs @uxpin @styleguidist @redwoodjs Cool, tho it's basically doubling down on the common use case. The stories being named exports are what prevent me from fpautomating my stories with a loop, because I can't export dynamic names. As for the render function I usually need to change from the default (...args spread)

Component Story Format 3.0 is here (alpha) ♻️ Spreadable story objects 🌈 Default render function 📓 Automatic titles ▶️ Play functions for scripted interaction ✅ 100% backwards compatible All with much less boilerplate! storybook.js.org/blog/component…

CSF 3.0 is going to be great! I'm already starting to port some stories over to the new format. No more template binds, and the play functions are going to be amazing.
