Recreating 3D scenes using the reflections in your eyes: https://t.co/6aifDeY1Rt A single photo is enough, but it becomes much more accurate with multiple reflections from multiple angles, like a video capturing moving eyes.

This is absolutely and positively true. Juniors, take notice! Read the code. And I get it, many projects are really really complicated for no apparent reason. But persist, and if you can get a senior to walk you through it and patiently explain how it works, all the better.

I have never. Blogs taught me everything in the early days, painful experiences helped me ever since then.

If you can code, have you ever read a programming book?

why is logging so damn hard? my entire career has been about managing logs in one form or another - huge log files that you cat and grep ✅ - elasticsearch clusters that make you wish you were a farmer ✅ - real-time o11y platform ✅ yet, after all, logs still suck

DMs are not as open as you think. Shouldn't verified users get to choose who DMs them?

Is it just me that open DMs are broken for or is everybody else getting this too? It's been weeks

reddit might have a hard time convincing people to build on its new developer platform now https://t.co/KCkRfpO85R They want to host the bots, which makes me think it's more like the shopify app store than a hub for documentation

Every AI code tool seems to focus on autocomplete and writing code, who’s working on tools to help us navigate codebases?

There's no point continuing to live in denial, time to finally look at the shortcuts reference for VS Code
