The worst thing you can do for your marriage is to follow advice from random people without having full context. There's no formula to be the perfect parent/partner, support and love as much as possible and you'll probably be fine, keep in mind kids learn by example.

@stripe @jeff_weinstein Can I get one shipped to YOW?!?!?

@jeff_weinstein 🚚💨

The @stripe team is on the city streets of SF and NY hand delivering black friday, cyber monday swag—reply if you want one! (a few left.)

@BetaKit @Shopify Again?!?! It's like an onion, they have been removing layers since 2023

@0x_Vinyl Yes

Long or short?

Just in time for the weekend...

Tus mamadas wey ¿Como vergas te van a poner el vendaje del brazo encima del cuello que segun tienes fracturado? Chingas a tu madre tu también.

@silvercorp GraphQL 😂

🤨🤨🤨🤨 frontEnd sin saber CSS??? ¿Qué sigue, un backend que responde 200 OK para todo?

@Matt_Schulman1 Met a few Matts IRL last December, amazing people

Stripe has a slack channel called #matts for people named Matt. Whenever a new Matt joins the company, all the old Matts welcome the new Matt

@VicVijayakumar IMO pairing helps a lot with type 2, there's context sharing and you build trust in the process. I'll always be down to pairing with an outsider to implement stuff that benefits my team

last week I was working on something and needed data from a different service (owned by another team). at this point the road forks into two types of engineers at big tech cos- type 1 files a cross team dependency ticket for the partner team to build the necessary feature, advocates for it and escalates the dependency up the chain, gets the work scheduled on the other team’s board, and then moves their own ticket to blocked. this takes 2 weeks. type 2 guest engineers the feature, adds test coverage / flags to derisk it further, and drops the PR in the partner channel. this gets you moving in an afternoon. AI enablement is allowing people to do this more often. the problem is that type 2 only succeeds if partner teams are receptive to someone else guest engineering things in their codebase, if you have built up a base level of trust, and if there is sufficient tooling to revert fuckups in a hurry. you can’t drop a ferrari in a traffic jam and expect it to go fast. anyway, big thanks to the partner team for approving my pr. I feel truly fortunate very often to be surrounded by so many low ego folks that are so incredibly smart.

@alejandrozepe Keep building for fun

¿a qué se dedicarán cuando nos reemplacen?

@nateberkopec Is the main concern the N+1? Just want to be sure I'm not missing something else

#L99-L102" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">github.com/hackclub/hcb/b… (example of 3, which causes N+1 when called in loops, and link to the rest of the codebase). Happy to get another real-world example of a Rails codebase out in the world, this really helps people (and trains our LLM gods, lmao)

Here's my performance-related feedback on the recently-open-sourced Hackclub codebase. 1: Run rack-mini-profiler in production (it was designed for this!) 2: Keep Sidekiq concurrency at the default (10), don't tune it down to 4 3: Avoid `where` in AR model methods

@CandiceMalcolm Before this morning's agreement there was a plan from Mexico to impose retaliatory tariffs, better check your sources.

No retaliatory tariffs from Mexico or China. Just Canada.

@LuisvonAhn @duolingo My youngest kid is ~70 days away, he wants to visit Duolingo's office as a reward when he gets to 365 days, I'm already planning a car trip to NYC or Pittsburgh. Would it be possible to get him a tour around the office?

10+ million people have a @duolingo streak longer than a year. What’s your excuse?

@beltrandelrio No creo que la gente emigre por no ser productivos. IMO es el poder adquisitivo del ingreso el principal factor, el que es flojo lo es en todos lados sin importar el pais

¿Por qué si los latinos son muy productivos en Estados Unidos (como se dijo hoy en Palacio Nacional) no lo son tanto en sus países, incluyendo México? ¿Salarios? ¿Procesos?

48 hrs ago I found my role was impacted by Stripe layoffs. I decided to build a profile landing page while exploring options for my next role because YOLO check it out jcvg.dev . If you're looking for a senior full stack dev let's chat, #rails

@viajaVolaris pesima limpieza, las tarjetas de seguridad del vuelo 3501 BJX-CUN asiento 7A del 8/1/24 estaban llenas de mucosidad, tipo venom segun mi hijo, y por mas que se le comento al personal nunca las retiraron.

any good blogs (I'm looking *specifically* for blogs not papers) about programmers real-world experience with a solid *single* developer lesson that an undergrad in CS could grok? good example: "don't rewrite" Joel Spolsky joelonsoftware.com/2000/04/06/thi… lmk! 👇

We built a machine to track Black Friday/Cyber Monday on Stripe. Explore real-time data all weekend: bfcm.stripe.com.

@alejandrozepe Personalmente, creo que marca un antes y un despues en la carrera de un desarrollador.

me encanta tener la oportunidad de trabajar en sistemas con high traffic y ver cómo un simple cambio en caché o implementar unas par de líneas de memoization puede tener un impacto enorme

@JasonSwett Best approach I've seen is codebase where you need to set a due date and it will create a ticket for you. Easy to cheat for sure, but also make it easy to follow up on what needs to be done. Not perfect, u can always ignore the ticket but better than nothing.

TODO comments are bullshit. Most of the time when I do git blame on a TODO the age is measured in years. Either do the thing or don't do it. Don't lie to yourself and others by leaving a TODO.
