Love JustJavaScript.com, got it for all on team, working through—it’s awesome. Paid for new team member’s copy, no access or receipt after 3 days, no response from [email protected]. Hoping for help! CC: @dan_abramov @MaggieAppleton @joelhooks

I stayed up past 1am, then set my alarm for 4:00am so I wouldn’t miss Christa Deguchi making history by becoming Canada’s first World Judo Champion! She did it! Congratulations! 🥇🥋🇨🇦 #JudoWorlds2019 #HardWorkPaysOff #Legend

Google discovered that giving every employee a credit card and trusting them to follow policy on expenses, even with some bad actors, was cheaper than the enforcement and structures most companies use. How much do you waste due to low trust? Can you do the math for your company?

Why do developers try to appear more intelligent or skilled by tearing other ideas down? Wouldn’t an intelligent or skilled developer take a less-than-good idea and build around it? Or even better, build a bridge to a better place?

Here's to the ones who treaded water today, who didn't "smash it" or do amazing things. Here's to the ones who struggled and persisted, and will again tomorrow, for this is often what progress and success looks like.

Striving for perfection before you start is a surefire way to never get started. Focus on step 1: get started. Then adjust as you go.
