i've been reflecting a lot lately on how so much of getting better as a developer doesn't show up in your commit history. it takes months and has no real PR/ artifact to show for it until one day you just... notice you got better at something.

wrote a post on it: sarahgerrard.me/posts/slow-p...

you don't need an umbrella when all your clothes are made from plastic

they are clearing the drains on the street and this is like christmas for the little one

Wee man turns one tomorrow. Figured it was time for his first set of wheels

I love this roundup, but the problem remains that these are not all yet available across the board, or cover enough old versions to be "safe" to use in prod.

It's coming though... given a little time.

We need a roundup of all the things that are now newly "widely available" :)

Putting together the final touches on slides for my talk at AI Engineer conf this Thursday @aidotengineer.bsky.social 

Talking about how we need realtime, multiplayer, collaborative agentic dev tools. Not isolated, single player terminal instances.

And showing one we've built at @githubnext.com!

please only show me cool things about the moon and space and the cool people who are in space this week thank you

It's really sad to see the @developer.chrome.com account pumping out AI-style replies that don't really make sense. 

These accounts used to be run by DevRel. Now they're run by marketing.

Syncing the hidden DOM element to the pointer coordinates is a brilliant approach to the selection problem. Keeping the math perfectly synced gets incredibly tricky once you start introducing multi-line text blocks to that curved plane.
