I just discovered the font by the Braille Institute, Atkinson Hyperlegible.
Pretty sure I have found my forever body font for every project I make from now on.
I think that the
@NamecheapCEO
owes someone 50k.
He even goes on to start the last reply with "Honestly...", which implies that he was NOT honest up to that point.
They WILL snipe a domain if enough people search for it.
Time to figure out who to migrate domains to...
New badge, who dis?
Funny story: I went to reapply this morning and their page said "Application Reviewed". So I did a search of my inbox and found the confirmation...
I sat on that email for a week because I hadn't seen it.
Thanks to everyone who helped get me here.
We didn’t hit the $4k milestone but we did hit $2,740 raised for the syria/turkey earthquakes. So I cut my hair live on stream anyway.
I didn’t think we would even break $1k. HUGE WIN!!!
Many people are reading the DHH article about TypeScript and taking an all or nothing stance about it.
Hint: Some of the libraries we tout as "type-safe" mainly focus on external type-safety. They ALL use "any" internally when the type system gets in their way.
tRPC? Zod? Yup.
@RoxCodes
Depends on your DB. DBs like Postgres have a UUID datatype which is a number under the hood.
DBs without a dedicated data type need strings. One important thing is to make it a fixed width char field rather than a varchar.
Congrats to
@astrodotbuild
on the 3.0 release.
Some of you may have noticed that the default port changed.
I SUGGESTED 4321!
This will be my single greatest contribution to the world of Open Source forevermore.
IT HAPPENED!!!
I hit 500k hours watched on my stream.
I am in a very select group in the category. I assume its just me,
@tsoding
,
@ThePrimeagen
, and
@WTFLanaLux
. Probably some more too, but still.
I did it. Partner application submitted. I fully expect to be denied the first couple tries, but this is a milestone nonetheless.
Thank you soooooo much to everyone who hangs out and helped me get here.
I personally think it shows intent when scanning.
If I see a "const", I know the original author intended for that variable to not be reassigned.
If const is the default, "let" shows intent that the variable will be reassigned.
To each their own. Decide as a team and move on.
I published my first multi-framework library using Mitosis from
@builderio
. It currently outputs a library for Angular, Qwik, React, Solid, Svelte, Vue2, and Vue3.
If you need some placeholder avatars for your next app, give it a shot.
I'm really loving some of the neobrutalist designed websites I have been seeing lately.
Some of my favorites so far:
-

Any other sites worth mentioning?
I was looking to see if I could make node auto-update a github url'ed dependency. All of a sudden a wild
@ThePrimeagen
appeared from 2013.
While I was reading the answer, I thought the tone seemed familiar. I was right.
Hey
@ThePrimeagen
, you have been big time for a while, but I think this is a huge milestone.
During the Reddit Crawl I do at the start of stream, today was the first time one of your videos has shown up organically.
4 YEARS on Twitch as a programming streamer. I had thought it was the 6th but I checked Twitch's stats and June 3rd is the official date.
Thanks everyone for making it something I love doing every day!
We had a couple jokers unfollow while I was trying to screenshot this the first time....
But, WOOHOO! 20k followers on Twitch.
I'm only 40k watch hours away from the big 500k achievement too. So, 2 or 3 months from here.
We all have criteria by which we judge a Github repo.
I put mine into a browser extension. You can currently toggle criteria, and adjusting weights is coming soon.
Github:
Chrome:
Firefox:
Twitchcon is started now. Time for too many instances of people telling me I am shorter than they expected.
Luckily I also get to tell them they are taller than I expected.
Balance in the universe is maintained.
I'm going to start making YouTube videos. Here is my "Hello World" that describes my plans.
Is there anything I could improve for the next one? Lighting? Audio levels?
I'm proud of the custom foley sounds during the title segment.
Mainly tweeting to pin this.
My twitch schedule is basically everyday from 11am-ish to 6pm-ish Pacific time.
Wednesday and Sunday are set aside for maintaining existing projects. The rest of the week is for whatever our main thing is at the time.
HOTEL SHOWER REVIEW
Pros:

- no mirror fog
Cons:
- full heat burns with the power of 1000 suns
Rating: 42/42

On stream we started looking at Mac mini upgrades. Mine is a 2015.
A Mac Studio with 192GB of RAM is tempting.
Just imagine... with all that RAM, I would be able to run TWO next.js dev servers AT THE SAME TIME!
WOOOOO!!!
I just hit 250k watch hours on my Twitch stream. If you had told me a year ago that I would keep pace with any metric of
@theprimeagen
I would have laughed in your face.
It ONLY took streaming 10 times as much lol
I am in Mac update hell.
The work machine (brand new MacBook Air) has been stuck at a full bar for 50 minutes.
Decided to check on the Mac mini (2015) and it has probably been stuck all night.
Decided to try updating personal MacBook (2015).
Huge shoutout to
@ThePrimeagen
. Thanks for the raid. He is such a massive supporter of the community here on
@Twitch
in the software and game dev category.
I've been a fan for a while.
We think we have problems with return type conversations.
Rust developers argue about the fundamentals.
78 comments. 39 upvotes. Is this getting ratioed on reddit?
WOOHOO!!
I got accepted as a presenter at HugoConf.
My lightning talk will focus on the process of creating your own custom shortcode. The shortcode I made is directly inspired by Gatsby-Image.
Sign up for HugoConf. Its free!!!
@hugoconf
@golang
Hey,
@Twitch
streamers. I made a tool to help call out your viewers and the anniversary of when they followed your channel.
There is more work to do. Want to help contribute? It's open source at
.
Contributions welcome!
This is simply a post about how you can't predict the JIT compiler.
Caveats:
- The code needs to run often enough to be JIT'd. A React render block is a great example.
- Depending on the use case the readability of using Array.from might still be preferred.
Twitch con is over. I had a blast.
I love our community. Hiccups aside, I still think we have one of the best communities on twitch. I’m now counting down the days to the next one.
I randomly said "Shfifty five" on stream and then had to teach the kids (viewers) about the internet before YouTube. Who remembers Newgrounds?
My receding hairline never felt more relevant.
Want to level up at an organization?
Be the squeaky wheel.
Speak up at meetings. Ask to clarify scope of tasks/stories.
Be the person that people ask, "Does that sound right, X?"
I doubt I'm the first person to see this, but...
Is React planning some kind of Remix-style actions for forms? Does it have something to do with RSCs?
@dan_abramov
Did I see something I shouldn't have seen? I can't seem to find it in the GitHub repo.
I got to the airport heading to twitch con. Suddenly, I hear, “Mr Sir”.
@codephobia
has his connecting flight from Canada on the same plane as me leaving Seattle.
Coincidence or conspiracy?
#twitchcon
I finally made my first proper video for YouTube. (not just an intro "hello world")
In the video, I discuss how to find and come up with color palettes for web sites and apps.
Let me know if you have any feedback.
People think they need to pick the "right" framework or the "right" language.
My dad had a phrase he said all the time: "The only reason I know anything is because I've made so many mistakes".
We learn more from failure than we do from success. Go out and make some mistakes.
I think the debate around "passion" in programming is so contentious because passion is seen as a very strong emotion.
If we reframed it as "curious", I doubt as many people would push back.
The best devs we all know are probably the most curious.
5 YEAR STREAMIVERSARY!!! NO BEANIE!!! NO BAMBOOZLE!!!
That's right. For the first time ever, I will not have a beanie on during my whole stream.
Bring some sunglasses because the glare from this fivehead is going to be blinding.
Live now!
I decided it might be fun to transform the
@Neovim
txt docs files into a set of HTML docs.
I used Regex for now.
@teej_dv
Tells me there is a TreeSitter parser that could help.
@ThePrimeagen
I left my Regex license at home. Have mercy.
Work in progress:
I just upgraded my fairly old Sony A5100 to a Canon R50 for my stream camera.
It’s too good. I’m not built for 4k. The bags under my eyes have bags under my eyes.
I have an old USB hard drive that I thought was dead.
Turns out, the USB port I was plugging it into is bad.
So I shall be sharing some of my photos from my snowboard days.
Here is the first one.
People watched my stream for 129k hours this year alone. 5.38k DAYS!!! If we can double it next year, I will record my own bluegrass version of 10,000 Days by Tool.
I stream every day and notice a distinct drop in viewership when certain streamers are live.
That could be discouraging for some people. I see it like this:
The best and most entertaining streamers are live and I still have 40 to 50 diehards watching me.
I will NOT be streaming tomorrow (Tuesday).
How fun is this?
I stream so often that I'm inclined to make a twitter post about missing a day rather than when I go live.
Oct 14 to today = 136 days in a row. My current record.
#100DaysOfCode
and some change
No OSS library, package, language, etc should EVER be bummed on a fork. Forks keep everybody honest and accountable.
Keep calm and continue forking. (For fork's sake...)
On stream, people ask me for advice to get started with coding.
I commonly say:
"Put in the work. There are no shortcuts. If there is a shortcut discovered, it just becomes the way".
WHOA! I just found a site that helps walk through what "System Design" interviews and processes can feel like.
The most recent post about designing Slack was a fun read.
Never done a System Design interview, but it seems way more approachable, now.
