Anybody have an email/bluesky client or practice that specifically helps boost the signal and downgrade the noise?

Essentially I'm looking for something that helps me get in and get out and not check it too frequently (the opposite of what twitter, facebook, gmail all want).

Anybody else unhappy with project search? Either from terminal or vscode. I always feel like taking action on results is too clumsy. Built a POC.

First feature: quickly narrow results by file type.

Is there something here? Or am I inventing a problem to solve?

Welcome @adafruit.com ! I'm curious, do you have any insights or thoughts on this?

I love node + esm but I'm genuinely surprised how often I still have to spend hours trying to figure out compat issues with. Latest issue: path.resolve() with esm gives me a file in the middle of my path:

This is a microcontroller (MCU). Kind of like a small computer on a single small board. Calculators (and many other devices) use microcontrollers.

The MCU is a great way to dip your toe into hardware.

Soon I'll be posting videos to give a gentle intro into hardware (as I learn).

Amazing work.

@tyler.ui.dev Tyler my friend! https://ui.dev/why-react-renders is 👨‍🍳👌. I’m simultaneously reacting with deep envy (slowly diminishing) and cheering you on (quickly increasing).

This is superb. Wow. I love that we’re getting closer to Bret Victor-style learning experiences 👍👍🔥🔥🔥. Kutgw!!

Anybody here into Arduino / hardware hacking? I'm just starting out, and though it's really fun I've run into SO many stumbling blocks / papercuts...

Biggest open questions I have is about where to find true beginner kits & tutorials. Like from zero to something.

A thread...
