🙋‍♂️ ever wanted to build something without needing to configure a db, auth, file storage or a cms? it turns out you already have all four if you have a bluesky account 👉 airspace is a typed client for it

ever since I had @danabra.mov on the show, I've been helplessly ATproto pilled - so ofc the first component I built to dogfeed @svebcomponents.dev is atmosphere themed! I couldn't have picked a better launch date either, because by xcanceling nitter twitter showed their commitment to a closed web. 🦋

put up a post that includes a bunch of links I keep sending people over and over again also finally made my personal blog a @standard.site publication (thank u @awarm.space and @brookie.blog and @gu5.org for helping debug) :)

Been in Copenhagen for almost a week and it might just be my new favorite city. Thoughtful design, delicious food, relaxed atmosphere, happy people. There's a real joi de vivre here 🇩🇰✨

Spending the next week in Berlin Lmk if you’re in town and want to grab a coffee! 🇩🇪

What if TypeScript had an `unsafe` keyword and `as`, ‘any`, and `!` were only available inside of blocks declared as `unsafe`?

A friend reached out asking why my face is on the Google search result for Karabiner Elements. Funny how it chose mine from the list of sponsors 😆

Speaking at the next @vercel.com Tokyo meetup about building agentic support agents. Swing on by! vercel.connpass.com/event/376741/

Going to SF in two weeks to visit Vercel HQ. Anyone in town up to grab a bite?

Snagged my tickets! See you at Vue Fes! 🙌

Spending the next week in NYC 🗽 Anyone in town and want to grab a bite?

Tierney is an absolute gem. You'd be lucky to have them on your team!

Thrilled to share that I’ve joined the engineering team at @vercel.com! Incredible talent, passion, and generosity all around — can't wait to start shipping ▲

Deltarune............................................................ tomorrow!

Today was my last day at @fakku.net — my most challenging yet rewarding role to date. Grateful to work with such a talented team to build out the platform. Thank you for the opportunity to learn and grow as both an engineer and manager. Very excited for what's next!

We're back! I repeat, we're back! www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fi2d...

Oof, this stings. It really irks me that a for-profit company’s CLI like npm should come bundled in with Node. Corepack felt like a step in the right direction to promote others that have been pushing the ecosystem forward.

I'm kicking-off a Tokyo Web Dev meetup along with @saeris.gg 🇯🇵🗼 There are plenty of meetups out here, but not a whole lot in English. Roll through and join our first community event! lu.ma/wc6v90xo

One surprising insight I came across while speaking to letters is that the job is mostly contract work with freelancers. One of if not the only full-time paying letterer job in the U.S. with benefits is at Fakku. Yes, that Fakku. I spoke with founder @largehotcoffee.com about it.

Starship is finally in Ubuntu and Debian's package registry! Simply `apt install starship` on a new system 🚀

Shoutouts to Ghostty for including a Nerd Font as a fallback for when users don't configure one! Issues with Starship glyph rendering are a total non-issue 🙌

Has it really been over two years since the last Tim Rogers video?

To help dev-twitter settle in, I made a quick little thing to help find your people here 🤓 It includes scripts to export your GitHub and/or Twitter follows to a file. And then in a localhost app, it allows you to automate searching & following of your social rolodex ✨ github.com/lukeed/blues...

It's finally time for the big three oh! 🥳🎂🎈

Fantastic conference organized by fantastic people! I highly recommend submitting! ✨

Howdy everyone 👋
