  2. Prescheduled blog posts, tweets, and newsletters make me seem far more consistently productive than I actually am.

  3. Retweeted

    New blog post, Mimicking npm script in Node.js:

  4. Great advice. I've seen too many companies put up with talented assholes for no good reason.

  5. Retweeted

    PSA: It's time to upgrade your Node v0.10 apps. v0.10 is already in maintenance mode and security updates will stop at the end of the year.

  6. Going on my fifth significant life change in as many months. Thought I was doing okay, but it's starting to catch up with me. Meh.

  7. . how can I filter transactions by date now? This doesn't work anymore: Also, why is this not just in the app?

  9. How delightfully arbitrary.

  10. Retweeted

    It's true, reviews *really* help.

  11. Is there a role for frameworks like Ember and Angular today? My latest newsletter answers that question.

  12. Retweeted

    “ugh, javascript is awful” “how long have you been trying to learn it for?” “like, a solid morning”

  14. It took me until the third episode of Fuller House to realize the double meaning of the title. Not as quick on the uptake these days.

  15. Retweeted

    seeing a maintainer walk away from an open source due to burnout is making me reconsider why I contribute to certain projects

  16. Am I the only one bored by Legends of Tomorrow? Just can't seem to connect with the stories. Snart is the only character I like.

  17. Ideas should be evaluated based on merit, not based on the source.

  18. If only we could be assured the Supreme Court wouldn't vote 4-4. :(

  19. Retweeted

    I get that not everybody pushes this progressive enhancement thing to the max but at least make sure your site shows SOMETHING when JS fails
