I almost couldn’t do this talk at #CascadiaJS. I persisted through absolute weariness and exhaustion to make it to this stage. To all the kind folks who said such wonderful things afterwards: Thank you, it really means so much and makes it all worthwhile. ❤️

The main character of a conf is always the attendee. Not the organizers, not the MC's, not the keynote, it's the attendee. I see so many confs miss this. On stage you should address who's in the room. You know who's there, you have the registration list. During the event you should use this knowledge to facilitate conversations and make introductions. In the post-conf gallery you should include every photo of attendees (not just speakers). Stop thinking about conf logistics as "herding cats", you're hosting your community. This is hospitality. Your community is not a marketing segment. It's a group of people united with common struggles and dreams. If they're at your conf, they've placed some faith in you that you can help with this. Honor their ambition. Exceed their expectations. ok, I'm done.

@Dayhaysoos Not crazy at all. It’s a pivotal step in the process with a lot of room for improvement.

I feel kinda crazy building a code review tool in this current market, but I promise I wouldn't have tried if I didn't think I'd bring something new to the table. Most tools only review the diffs in your repos. I found a way to include your intention alongside it. While this sounds great in theory, I will be testing runs to see how it plays out in practice

Worries that software developer jobs are going away are backwards. There is SO MUCH software to build right now, that previously wasn't possible (uses AI directly) or wasn't cost-effective (too niche). We're going to have more developers, and orders of magnitude more software.

I’m thrilled to announce that Hypermod has raised $350 from my wife’s joint bank account (she said it was ok), to tackle my Anthropic API bill. Excited for the next step in the company’s journey.

2025 has been an incredible year. Sure, nuqs has cleared impressive milestones (downloads, stars, adoption). But the best part of it was the friends we made along the way. Open-source is about people more than anything else. Speaking at conferences and meeting you all IRL was a great honour, that I hope to do again in 2026 and onwards. Special thanks to my Twitter friends, your support has been incredible this year, and I'm forever grateful. 🙏 @orcdev @AlemTuzlak @virgilerietsch @TkDodo @aurorascharff @tejask @DavidKPiano @BeJS_ @sebastienlorber @willklein_ @beaussan @_BearStudio @kettanaito @codewithantonio @HaamedBahram @bgub_ @kapehe_ok @GabbyShires @RhysSullivan @pariscestchiant @BurnedChris @dominikkoch @joshtriedcoding @branmcconnell @timneutkens @feedthejim @bruvimtired @shadcn @kapish_dima @davidhdev @ISBLANK_Dave @izadoesdev @chriszeuch @legionsdev @ruchernchong @iamncdai @ajaypatel_aj @IdoEvergreen and many, many more.

While being asked 75 questions by an LLM sounds crazy, I genuinely think this is how it SHOULD be. The time we used to spend actually building features manually should be spent thoroughly thinking and planning. It also helps with understanding EXACTLY what gets implemented

Added this as a /interview command gist.github.com/robzolkos/40b7… I tried it on a simple 1-line plan document "I want to add a chat interface so employees can chat with each other." - it then asked me 75 !!! questions and came up with a excellent and thorough 400 line plan.

@Dayhaysoos When I prompt LLMS to build things I almost always encourage clarifying questions. "Before generating any code ask me about X, and tell me what libraries you want to use and let me confirm the choices." Stuff like that.

Open source maintenance is a marathon that never stops. We put goose to work on its own backlog by embedding it into a GitHub Action that turns issues into draft PRs. I wrote about how this improved my day to day as a maintainer. Link in 🧵
