@engineering_bae Everyone’s hit on the big one, grinder. I recently started using a puck screen, and it’s made a much bigger difference in channeling than I expected. I highly recommend notneutral.com/collections/ve… glasses just because the quality is top notch.

I just purchased my first espresso machine. What advice would you give me to perfect my cup of joe? I care about low acidity, smooth espresso and I’d like to add milk occasionally.

@adamwathan Thought you had renderings for a green accent wall? Or was that the old office?

Got the office painted and put up some slat wall panels — lots more decorating to do but it’s a start 🙌

Sharing this A+ analysis on the Luka trade by the always insightful @chris_kratovil Makes a ton of sense to me from the #txlege angle - esp considering Lite Patrick likely done next Session. Good stuff. Read it 👇🏼 #txlege #MFFL

@ThugDebugger @RenderATL 🎤

Should we bring NaS to @RenderATL 2025?

Any tailwinders writing plugins with options in v4? Is it possible to add the options now that the plugin is imported via postcss in the stylesheet? #L37" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">github.com/tailwindlabs/t…

Wow @aarondfrancis talk far exceeded my expectations. So vulnerable. So authentic. Y’all need to check out the video when it’s shared out. #CommitYourCode

Great message from @DThompsonDev to kickoff #CommitYourCode, get out there…find a meetup…start a conversation…just get involved! Also hearing him describe the logistics of a conference reminds me of all the joy and pain from @lonestarphp

@jwage @meganswage @weaverryan @leannapelham Which plunge are you getting?

Building out a little dungeon spa in our basement with @meganswage, @weaverryan and @leannapelham. Put down the floor and put together the sauna today. Cold plunge should get delivered soon then all we need is electrical and we are good to go!

@TheIDPGuru That makes more sense, didn’t see any injury reports on him

@jakefolio Well, he got injured after just a handful of snaps and did not return. Gonna miss a few weeks and could be put on injured reserve.

Clocking in at over 4,000 words, my Week 2 #FFIDP Waiver Wire article is now live. These early weeks are super critical to fantasy success, so make sure to check this out if you play in IDP leagues: idpguru.com/2024/09/2024-i… My Week 2 IDP rankings releasing later today as well.

@TheIDPGuru Just curious, I have him in CB required league…Taron Johnson didn’t do much this past week

@jakefolio He's playing outside corner which is going to bring a lot of week-to-week volatility to his numbers and we obviously can't count on the sacks. So he's not someone I'm overly interested in outside of CB-required leagues.

@engineering_bae Look into @deleteme

Fun fact: you can reduce the memory usage of a Golang program by rearranging your structs. For example, this struct takes up 24 bytes of memory: type Example struct { A int8 B int64 C int8 } This struct, with optimized members takes up 16 bytes: type Example struct { B int64 A int8 C int8 } The reason for this drop in memory usage is because in the optimized struct, we've gotten rid of unnecessary "padding". Struct padding in Go (and in many other programming languages) is a technique to align data in memory according to the CPU's architecture requirements. This is essential for efficient memory access and performance optimization. Different data types have different alignment requirements. Example: int32 is 4 bytes and must be aligned to a 4-byte boundary. When you define a struct with fields of different types, the Go compiler may insert extra space (padding) between the fields to ensure each field starts at an address that satisfies its alignment requirements. There is also padding added at the end to ensure the size of the struct is a multiple of the largest alignment requirement within the struct. Going back up to the above, this struct takes up 24 bytes of memory: type Example struct { A int8 // 1 byte + 7 bytes of padding because B has to be aligned to a 8-byte boundary B int64 // 8 bytes C int8 // 1 byte // 7 bytes of padding at the end (platform dependent) } And this optimized struct takes 16 bytes of memory: type Example struct { B int64 // 8 bytes, aligned to 8-byte boundary A int8 // 1 byte C int8 // 1 byte // 6 bytes of padding (to align struct size to 8-byte boundary) } Most of your programs will not need to care about reducing memory usage. For those that do, hope you like Tetris! One obvious caveat of rearranging structs is that you give up human readability of grouping related fields together to instead favor the compiler.

ESM really feels like the Python 3 of JavaScript.

While Texas schools struggle with a huge budget deficits, @SpectrumNews1TX has discovered that millions of Texas education tax dollars are being diverted out of state to the series of charter schools founded by #HISD’s state appointed Supt. Mike Miles.

@engineering_bae I run and CrossFit, and I have a pair of Balega that have lasted me 5+ years.

@CaseySoftware I always appreciated the feedback from joind.in back in the day. Sad systems like that aren’t still heavily utilized.

I was at a conference this week and made the mistake of leaving negative feedback on a talk The review was flagged & removed, re-instated, flagged and removed again, and I've gotten retribution scoring on my talk. Others have said they stopped leaving feedback for fear of the same Therefore: - Speakers can't get better if they don't get honest feedback - Conference organizers can't get an honest assessment of speakers to invite/accept - Attendees are having their time wasted - Employers are wasting thousands of dollars sending people to events with bad talks And we wonder why conference attendance is down..

@aarondfrancis Anything but pop

I'm gonna start a livestream show where I taste and review different kinds of sparkling water and "natural" sodas. Gimma a good name! Bonus points if it's punny

@AletheDenis @DarknetDiaries @DistortionCyber Internet is full of trolls, I actually started following you here because of that episode!
