Hot take: “self-care” for devs isn’t just dark mode & caffeine ☕💻 Join @tdesseyn.bsky.social, @jasontorres.bsky.social & @michelle.blue (Program Director @ G2i Inc + React Miami co-organizer) to unpack developer health in the middle of a layoff season. Sept 11 | 11:30AM EST | torc.dev/community

Been trying out @windsurfai.bsky.social lately and the value really just clicked. It seems to be best with multi-file editing, and has good prediction for next implementation steps. Going to keep exploring, but I'm liking this aspect of it and recommend trying it out.

Last week @leaddev.bsky.social published an article I wrote on preventing burnout ✨ After many missteps and struggles I'm super thankful to share some valuable lessons and strategies I've learned while working in tech 🙏 leaddev.com/leadership/p...

The love is blind girlies seem to be the only ones not surprised by last nights live stream issues…

Today was such an amazing day and so was yesterday and so will be tomorrow.

me in a miami uber: yeahhhhh we’re never getting waymo

There’s an unreasonable effectiveness in just saying “hey, buy my thing”.

This is the best fight I’ve ever seen at a Panthers game. Gadjovich v Dillon at Amerant Bank Arena tonight.

Does this platform not support video? I saw the best hockey fight of my life tonight and want to share it 😞

If you're looking for something new to listen to, these are my favorite podcasts on rotation lately: - How About Tomorrow? - Whiskey Web and Whatnot - Syntax fm - Code To Market

Here for the first time in awhile and I have a lot of people to follow back!

Going to InterMiami and Florida Panthers games is the funniest juxtaposition. Fight breaks out in soccer and this is a dead serious matter 🫨 Fight breaks out in hockey and the stadium starts playing Metal 🤘

I want a commercial airline pilot that puts in 80+ hour work weeks. The one who hustles. The one who really shows they are passionate about flying.

Sometimes it’s healthier to skip the morning work out for more sleep 💙

Excited for Vercel Postgres and Blob and ready to use them. Vercel becomes more obvious to use _for me_. Totally understand the caution around knowing what’s under the hood — I’ve worked on past projects where using AWS directly is the best choice. For my work now, the convenience is liberating.

It’s three points on the road!!!!! Let’s gooooooo!!!

InterMiami is coming into tonight’s game on 6 straight losses but I just watched an episode of Ted Lasso so that’s gotta count for something. Let’s make it a good night! 💪

Today is going to be a very good day I can just feel it ✨✨✨

loves of my life 🤍

You either make choices or choices are made for you. There’s no third option I’m afraid 🤷🏼‍♀️

There’s an InterMiamiCF match Saturday 5/6 while I’m in SF. What are the chances a watch party could occur 😬😬😬

Why are airlines still offering flights with layovers under 1 hour?

Was gonna leave the vercel shilling on ol birb boi but I actually sat down and focused my attention on writing a entire article so here it is. Why Vercel Analytics is Actually Very Sick 🛹 https://michellebakels.hashnode.dev/why-vercel-analytics-is-actually-very-sick
