      Hey @jason.energy 👋

I’m demoing something at work that requires audio feedback. Can I use your ‘boop’ sound effect?

      UI/UX folks: What's the best way to handle this kind of input grouping, where you want to provide a checkbox to mark something for removal, but also allow for undoing?

I'm not a fan of "removing" the section on a click, because it leads people to think the data has been removed.
      A screenshot of a form where a checkbox is on the left of each section, which toggles if something is removed or not.

      People were arguing in my mentions today about whether the Earth is "round" when it's technically an irregular oblate spheroid and look "round" doesn't mean "absolutely perfect sphere" it means round. A soccer ball is round, a cantaloupe is round, a fluffy borb in winter is round, just go with it.

      Sheesh. We’ve been publishing workday/canvas-* packages to npm for years using tokens without a problem. But moving to OIDC we ran into some obscure errors. One of which was our repo is *technically* Workday/canvas-kit not workday/canvas-kit, and that capital W really matters.
