I was looking as an upcoming design conference website and it felt so tone-deaf.

10 years ago designers were supposed to be an elite group uniquely capable of solving the world’s problems.

But today, so much of that industry seems completely oblivious to the ongoing social changes we’re facing…

One of the few bright spots of the modern technology ecosystem is that YouTube kids videos have somehow become dominated by engineering content (Mark Rober, etc.).

I wonder how common this kind of experience is among women in tech. It seems like such an own goal that someone who is clearly passionate and competent would be driven to leave the industry..

Rust is the #7 most-used programming language (JS/TS excepted).

But despite that relatively low placement, it tops the rankings for languages that have the most features missing from JavaScript itself.

Congrats to PewDiePie for being cited by two people as a "developer they follow". Guess he's one of us now!

(I on the other hand got cited by nobody at all… and I'm the one making the dang survey! 😡)

Can't find time to play games anymore? Just follow my simple strategy!

1. Buy new game on Steam
2. Play it for like 30 minutes
3. Never touch it again
4. Repeat with next title

We’re excited to support the State of JS survey this year – one of the best ways to see how the JavaScript ecosystem is evolving.

We always learn a ton from the results, so make sure to share your experience and help shape this year’s report!

As a long-time MMA fan who works in tech, it's pretty disheartening to see the sharp right-wing turn taken by both communities.

Thankfully climbers at least are still pretty chill…

Rewatching the original Star Wars trilogy, it’s interesting that I still remember so many beats and seat pieces.

And even in the prequels there are moments like the Darth Maul fight I remember very clearly.

Whereas the third trilogy is all a blur, I couldn’t even tell what happens in what movie.
