President who famously hates windmills and has financial ties to fossil fuel billionaires says 5 new wind farms off the east coast -- IN THE OCEAN, WHERE HE WON'T EVEN HAVE TO LOOK AT THEM -- "pose a national security risk" and blocks them, offering no further evidence.

It's a war on child health they are waging. First vaccines, now this.

@sarahedo.bsky.social This is probably the worst possible time to bring this up (sorry!) but I just re-read your book Engineering Management for the Rest of Us and was reminded that the recording has gaps, overlaps, etc. Confirmed it was a fresh download from Audible.

Just want to point out how funny/sad it is that the same people who will refuse to refer to a trans woman as "she" have no problem calling ChatGPT "she."
If we are banning cell phones for kids we need to be talking about banning chatbots for boomers

Any engineering-management types out there that have an "I wish I had this when I first started!" book/link/idea you want to send my way? I have a direct-report for the first time and ~zero company history/eng-mgmt coworkers to draw on. I have the privilege/pain of starting from scratch.

I'm on some meds that are severely drying out my skin/lips/etc, so I switched from chapstick to the pocket-sized tube of vaseline. 100% convert. I am using this for the rest of my life.

I think the one thing that would take the Logitech MX Master 4 from "I really want that but my 3 is still fine" to instant-buy is if the usb dongle could be stored inside the mouse (like a bunch of other cheap mice already do) when traveling. Also if it were USB-C.

It's 2025. I can plug my laptop in with a single USB-C cable that will rapid-charge it while also doing dock things (usb, sd cards, audio, 2 external monitors)...
But we're still stuck with Bluetooth that sounds like hot garbage the moment you switch from half-duplex to full-duplex.
Boo, I say.

Upgraded my iPhone 14 pro to iOS 26.1 (from 18) mostly to try an app that requires 26. Immediately regret it. God this looks awful.

I feel like I'm going crazy. @notion.com Calendar (formerly Fantastical) is changing view (e.g. week/day/month) and which calendars are toggled visible/hidden at random. No updates available. This is madness!! 🍌🍌🍌

When using Cursor to plan a feature (before letting Cursor build that feature), if I run a 2nd prompt to update the plan, is this known/typical? I don't have too much non-standard cursor config, not using a BYO api key. It _seems_ to work ok, but it's unsettling.

I know I'm late to the party, but holy smokes container queries are just as good as they were promised to be! And using them in @tailwindcss.com v4 is *chef-kiss* perfect!

Is there a JS library that parses dates out of the bazillion stupid ways humans will format them give the opportunity?
Currently annoyed with:

And no, the input is not something I can have any control over.

I posted a developer job online today, and have been reviewing submitted resumés for the rest of the day. Here are my observations...
For reference, the job is a "jack of all trades" senior-dev position on a SaaS team of 4 in a company of 8 (after they join)...

HELP! We're starting on the foundation of what will become our app's next-gen monolith (replacing the current monolith) with a whole new tech stack (SvelteKit!) on Monday.
Need to decide (soon!) on what the mechanism will be to route to new vs old monolith.

I'm trying out Tana as an alternative to Notion / Obsidian. Something I keep bumping into is it seems like they REALLY want everything to be a child of daily notes. I have a side hustle and it seems odd to me that this is the breadcrumb trail for it. Tana users, what am I missing?
