Stoked for my first in person dev event since like 2018

PSA: don’t use compressed air in enclosed spaces, apparently. Cleaned my keyboard and my air purifier is losing. its. shit. Volatile organic compounds are off the charts over here… damn. 😳

You can learn web development alone, but it's a richer and more productive experience when you are part of a team.

Attempting to get some work done while sick with covid (pretty mild symptoms, thankfully) and in my excitement about submitting a PR I spilled my mug of neocitran ALL over my desk. Probably a sign I should take a break 🤒

Pumped to get my stickers! 🎉 My fave is the ice box css one 😆 There was no way I was missing these after missing out on the last batch 😢

Today is the 1st National Day for Truth & Reconciliation and most importantly, Orange Shirt Day. It is an opportunity for all to reflect on the truth of Canada’s history & the ongoing intergenerational trauma caused by Indian Residential Schools. Stand with us for hope&change.

Just pushed to production and nothing exploded (yet). Happy weekend everyone!

Me: "I am going to be SO PRODUCTIVE today!" . . . Computer: "Command not found: npm"

Can confirm, @6PackRevolution is the *only* way I’ve ever gotten truly in shape and stayed that way. Never felt so healthy + strong before.

When I was learning to code, the top advice was “hire a Babysitter.” Frustrating; it wasn’t doable. Instead of money based things, let’s recommend solid communities, unpaid mentorship, paths that anyone and encourage, while still spelling out the hardships they’ll face.

As a solo founder, I deal with loneliness and constant self doubt. I don't *ever* read any of those cheesy "Think Like a Warrior" books b/c those are for people who need self help, and I have my shit together. But recently I did. A thread. 👇

This excellent post puts into words exactly how I have been feeling lately about tech, and specifically the balance between my life & career. Thank you @erchwy!

Don't spend 6 minutes doing something by hand when you can spend 6 hours failing to automate it.

I love launch day. 🚀 Stoked with how this website has turned out!

Remember it's OK to: - Take a walk without listening to a podcast - Sit with your partner without reading a book - Watch a movie without checking your emails Trying to squeeze out every minute of value can leave you with none.

So grateful to be one of these folks that @practicingdev is coaching. Our monthly conversations help me to consistently evaluate and re-focus on my goals both as a dev and as a human in the world.

Marketing for freelancers. Everything I’ve learned. A thread.

Update: Just Googled “how to turn on a MacBook Pro” so this is going great so far thank you very much.

UPS just casually dropped off my new MacBook Pro as if I didn’t have any real work to get done today.
