After 18 years at Microsoft, with roughly a decade of that time working on TypeScript, I have unfortunately been let go in the latest round of layoffs. I need to take a few days to process before I start looking for work. Thanks to everyone who's been part of my journey so far.

@1owroller @kennethnym It is actually a compose multiplatform app.

>no small feat behind the scenes >literally just a react native app nobody serious is gonna take this guy seriously anymore. a tragedy

@lifeofadvait How is it different from logging into aws windows instance over rdp

What is Mars? It’s a question I’ve been getting almost everywhere I go. To best answer that, let me take you on a journey on how it came to be: Ever since I started working as a developer & previously as a video editor, I’ve always needed a fast computer. So, I had to buy them: 1. PC: cost ₹1L ($1200) - used for video editing 2. i9 MacBook Pro: cost ₹2.3L ($2800) - used for development 3. M2 Pro MacBook Pro: cost ₹2.5L ($3000) - used for development Sadly, these weren’t even perfect machines either, the PC wasn’t portable so I couldn’t take it to hackathons when I started coding. The i9 machines had heating and battery life issues so I had to be near an outlet at all times. The M2 Pro machine is the closest I’ve come to a good perfect machine but it costs a fortune. The solution I wanted was something that brought the power of a high end server in a machine that’s as thin & portable as an iPad Air. So, that’s exactly what Mars allows, it let’s you access a very powerful machine from anywhere. Along with that it brings in benefits of massively increased battery life & no heating what so ever. A few users have been daily driving Mars for the past month & are loving it. Following that, I’m starting a paid beta program that anyone can roll into & also looking for organisations that would like to use this for their employees.

@csetanmayjain @Madisonkanna You can use sshfs to mount a path of remote machine on your host and then nvim to make edits. There is a plugin that abstracts this all for nvim github.com/nosduco/remote…

@Madisonkanna does it supports remote connection using ssh?

I broke up with vscode

@mgdotdev Might as well disable treesitter for raw vim experience

@KP206 Where we’re going we don’t need LSPs

what’s stopping you from coding like this?

@PR0GRAMMERHUM0R The no brackets around if statement feels illegal with braces

@lauriewired Wait till you find that everything depends on the "is-number" package npmjs.com/package/is-num…

Can you believe we've reached a point in tech where a package named "is-even" has millions of downloads? hey guys, there is this thing called the modulus operator, and it works JUST FINE

@PavitraGolchha Got it didn't see your assignment call there

@KP206 Because it doesn't. 0.5 is like cheating because arrays in JS are actually objects and the array indexes are object keys. So I was able to pick the value assigned to the key 0.5. As a reult, it doesn't work with array methods like includes, or JSON.stringify

Did you know that you can index a JS array using float values? #JavaScriptmas #javascript #javascript_is_wierd

@aidenybai The "no new apis" is going to be a thing

Introducing Million.js 3.0! Make React Faster. Automatically. ⚡️ 85% faster builds, 🚀 optimized runtime, 🎉 no new APIs, and more!

@ThePrimeagen You inspired me to use neovim/vim motions.

someday i'll be gone from the twitters i hope i inspired you to take charge of your life, to pursue your passions, to value the valuable, and every now and then ride a horse into a public 2 hour talk (also laser eyes)

@eddaz7 @SimonBitwise @chancethedev You can achieve this but it is more explicit than js def Person(): pass Person.__dict__["name"] = lambda: print("John") Person.name() // prints "John"

Love our little language 🥰

@alexdotjs This is true for many languages including Python. Also, changing the return value in `finally` block is possible except languages like C#.

TIL that this is correct syntax and that `finally` runs after the return of the function #junior4lyfe

@ThePrimeagen I avoid aliasing due to tsserver lsp rename file doesn't work with it.

typescript path aliasing is a mistake

@stargazermellu @IBM Their image generation model is not production ready. Look mama, the noise is still there.

congrats to @ibm for making a program impossible to easily uninstall, i legit cannot find any letters in the captchas displayed…

Wrote an article about my mistakes and learnings from choosing various databases (SQL / NoSQL). link.medium.com/rmlUSgFTOBb #programming #AWS

@lostpotato_eth @ThePrimeagen for 3 I would rely on telescope's file history, at least I can fzf.

If you wish to make the transition from VSCode to something else start with these 3 tips 1. vim motion plugin 2. disable file tree (rely on fuzzy find, or open when you need it and then close it again) 3. disable tabs up top (rely on fuzzy find or harpoon)

@asthana_aastha Was the spike in memory related due redis snapshotting process?

Got appreciation from Director of Engineering for taking ownership at our startup. 🥳 Reduced redis memory usage by 5x by fixing a small but critical design flaw. This instantly saved my company a lot of money!!! 😇
