It’s so weird too. I remember when I got backlash for expressing interest in security when I was a frontend dev and ppl said I didn’t know what I wanted to do lol. But I knew when I before I learned how to code that my ultimate goal was infosec. Hence why I followed so many ppl in that space too [contains quote post or other embedded content]

That’s why I fw ppl like @medus4.com & @lookitup.baby. So many ppl like them always made the community seem so inviting for everyone just by being themselves. That’s why I’ll always be around to help others too

lots of new users have not seen the newborn lamb [contains quote post or other embedded content]

He taught me how to make a good tomato sauce in 1992, before I went to university, explaining a spoonful of sugar (if you couldn't afford balsamic) would offset the acidity, and I think of him whenever I make a tomato sauce, which is often, and what a lovely thing that is

Frameable line @ashokgelal.bsky.social 💙 > since this is a new beginning, I'm also trying to be less of a lurker and more of a contributor I think this is why we're all feeling the experience is so much different. We're back to conversations instead of passively doom scrolling.

But since this is a new beginning, I'm also trying to be less of a lurker and more of a contributor, for better or worse. Not good at it at all but I'm trying my best. Oh, now I'm following new strangers & half of them so far been cool/interesting. Over there my list was devs only and feeling rot

All the good people that I care to follow are here. X feels chaotic, full of ads, buggy, NSFW spams, etc. It feels a bit calmer here, less rage. Look, I'm mostly a lurker (sorry), I follow y'll because I care and like what you posts. And if y'll feel better here and my part is to just join? I'm in!

I like them. They are pretty 🤷

Depends on the font you are using, I suppose. Mine shows the triple equals as markedly distinct by using three parallel lines. But I take your general point...

No matter how much dev experience you have, you'll occasionally mess up your branch and panic-try random Git commands from the internet. The other day I just deleted all the files from the PR and my machine too.

Took me 1.5 years, but finally decided to calm myself by blocking some people on this platform who’ve been acting really weird after I came out as trans. Because I’m kinda starting to enjoy the ride here now and not gonna let those folks ruin it for me.

I'm so happy I can just scroll and scroll and see art and silly one offs people post

If I were to build a curriculum for Design for the problems we solve today, I’d include the following - Interface Craft - Motion Design - Prototyping - Systems Mapping & Information Architecture - Research & Experiment Methods - Data Literacy - Deconstructing Product Frameworks - AI infrastructure

Not a “technical skill”, but one I would say is invaluable as a designer that doesn’t get taught today is storytelling and presenting work and ideas. Almost 50% of the job is communicating ideas to others via decks, diagrams, etc., and most people usually learn on the job.

Totally agree. I ran out of characters.

Advising all my old tech friends finding me here —I don’t post about CSS/JS, design systems, or accessibility much. I’m mostly Costa Rican plants, bugs, animals, & sunsets, with some politics mixed in now that I’m giving Twitter the bird. And we own a little market & deli now —so maybe food/recipes.

When you get 100% code coverage, but all your tests are like expect(true).to.eq(true) 😅
