What is your fav JS one-liner? Can be legit helpful, or a dirty trick to get you out of a pickle. Mine is the 'ol one from Paul Irish to get a random Hex code colour: '#'+Math.floor(Math.random()*16777215).toString(16);

If there were any justice in this world y’all would all care about Stevie Wonder just as much as you care about the Beatles

Just a periodical reminder that if anyone super rich wants to pay off my remaining student loan debt, I’m down. RT for reach

Friendly reminder — take “aspiring” out of your bio. If you’re a student or a beginner, you’re still doing the thing ❤️ Downplaying our experience needs to go. I’m working on this for myself too

MAY I HAVE YOUR ATTENTION PLZ like many developers, I have a LOT of domains I bought for projects that are... let's say "on hold" this month we're challenging developers to finally ship those domains — and we're ready to put our money where our mouth is! dusty.domains

I just stumbled upon the WEIRDEST youtube ever. This guy has hundreds of programming videos, many of which are using my tutorial projects. BUT the code written in the videos is just jibberish. Kid pretending? New type of fake videos?

I got my first shot of the Pfizer vaccine today and I've been in a really good mood. I haven't seen my family in over a year and it feels really good to know that there's a light at the end of the tunnel and I'll get to see them relatively soon. Things are getting better.

Today I learned about the "in" operator after spending years only using hasOwnProperty. The difference between the two? "in" checks if a given property is in the object's properties or its prototype, "hasOwnProperty" only checks the object's properties. developer.mozilla.org/en-US/…
Learned Shell scripting for work since I was tasked with automating our deploy process (before we were manually uploading files to S3) and it's surprising how much that small bit of automation has improved our experience.

Realized I could use what I learned to improve the development experience on another one of our apps & I got it done in maybe ten minutes. Now instead of dragging and dropping in Finder, I get to type a single command. It's small, but it feels good to learn and use something new!

Hey y'all. We're looking for a front end dev, part time for about 6 months. Mostly theming. We have lots of experience, so newcomers are welcome. We just don't know how to make responsive front ends anymore!
