Still discovering new shell tricks. TIL: Substitutions. `cmd (cat file)` invokes `cmd` with the first parameter being a named pipe (e.g. `/dev/fd/22`) which contains the contents of `file`. Example use-case: You wanna diff two files, but they are binary so need disassembling https://t.co/k7LIzKOVrb — Surma (@DasSurma) Sep 7, 2024

All I had to do to get a perfect pagespeed score was remove Google Analytics. Kind of raises the question, what's the point of a page speed score if the "A" grade is near-unachievable for any kind of realistic product website? https://t.co/nE8mEGvDAI — Peter Downs (@peterldowns) May 11, 2024

My course platform is a "multi-tentant" Express app that uses middleware heavily to set values like course code, visitor country and logged in state on the request/response object. I just moved a lot of that logic over to AsyncLocalStorage and its so nice to not have to pass the… https://t.co/A02peTw5so — Wes Bos (@wesbos) May 10, 2024

I got into an argument with a contractor working on our house recently and my wife was like, “he’s been doing this a long time, what makes you think you know better than him?” I’ve found throughout my entire life that two or three hours of intense research in a domain isn’t… https://t.co/hv8pgXz9s6 — wanye (@wanyeburkett) Aug 26, 2024

It's impossible to overstate the value of meeting-less focus time for designing. All design activity lives and dies by constraints. But designing between meetings is the worst possible constraint for producing exceptional design outcomes. — Cameron Moll (@cameronmoll) Aug 16, 2024

@girdley Hopefully we are back to liberal arts degrees with a well-rounded core of math, science, and humanities. A broad base of knowledge that instills useful learning habits over hyper-specialization for an Indeed job description that has probably already changed twice. — SunDevilPhil (@Phil5514) Aug 16, 2024

I was telling my mother that working in tech puts you in a sort of continual survival mode. I explained how I tried to foresee the decline at companies & projects based on a variety of conditions. And she said, “That’s crazy! And you’ve been doing this for decades?” — Hà Phan (@hpdailyrant) Aug 16, 2024
