Rethinking how we build for the agentic era. Stop writing agent skills like human docs—it wastes tokens and invites hallucinations. Here's a distilled set of core best practices (<5 min read) to help us write better skills. Give it a read:

Googled it. It is indeed the same fish tube. Really glad it's reached global fame and everyone is enjoying it 😂

Is there a new fish tube I should know about, or is this the same fish tube that has been known and loved for many years?

So this #JavaScript weirdness totally works in ES2018 (and in Chrome), however it breaks if you try to do it in TypeScript and compile to ES5. :) You can even do: `for (let {} in obj)` Weird stuff. (again, don't do it in TS targeting ES5, tho)

First my fellow account-holder was able to set my password, in plain text, and send it to me. And I didn't tweet. But now this.

BNZ Business putting their "mad security skills" on show. Either my password was too long, or non-alphanumeric characters are not allowed. Possibly both. How embarrassing.

What's your fav Slack bot for managing PRs? Currently ours posts separately for PR created, PR merged. Also doesn't format the posts very nicely. Are there any bots that can update a PR slack message state to "merged" rather than just posting again? #lazyweb

Anyone know if the @angular team has written about their branching, release and versioning strategy anywhere? Thinking of doing something similar but would help to read about their choices first. Or another team doing similar with a JS project. Long-lived release branches etc.

Thank you so much to everyone who has left flowers and messages of love at mosques around the country. MIL just sent pics from our local mosque. Your messages are being read, they are being shared, and they are deeply appreciated. Thank you ♥️

All I was able to do today was mourn out loud. I’m still in shock. I’m grasping for words. Here’s what I have to say

Software is not a craft. Nor is it an art. Nor is it engineering, or architecture, or anything we've ever before. I now have words for what development is: the practice of symmathesy. https://t.co/gCbHaNXrcG
