      Donations to Minnesota are way down, but ICE isn’t gone and there’s still so much need here.
      
      I’ve got $100 on this! Can anybody match me?
      
      Please share and help if you can! Thank you 💛

      Today is going to suck for me so it would be really nice if we could finish off this mutual aid ask to keep my neighbors housed. We're at $4578 / 5900 needed for 3 sets of neighbors to stay housed in March & safe from ICE.
      
      Please.

      I feel so exhausted trying to keep up with all the AI recommendations for developers. How do ya'll get anything done when you're constantly switching tools. Or is that just my perception? It might be just in my head but it feels like back when there was a new JS framework being shat out every week.

      i wonder if i can get claude to make me a swiftui browser for @inlay.at. i've been thinking that maybe "can be faithfully represented by both CSS and SwiftUI" is a good constraint for the design system i'm building
