Web Dev tip 🔥 Did you know you can get a png of any DOM Node by simply right clicking on the markup in the dev tools and selecting 'capture node screenshot'? 📸 Here is an example of some of my new followers as a png. Really handy for all sorts of things! 🙂

If anyone is using react native and looking for observability solutions, we just open sourced our faro react native sdk. This was my first hackathon project for grafana, hopefully it might help you out. 👍🙂 github.com/grafana/faro...

Have any of my followers ever switched from a Samsung galaxy phone to a pixel? I've got the itch to switch phones, but I'm not sure if pixels are decent? My main concern is with the processor. I don't do any gaming, just standard use. I've had Samsung galaxy phones since the s3.

arxiv.org/abs/2504.17033 dijkstra algo has been dethroned. Exciting.

Voice notes. Convenient for the sender. Absolute nightmare for the recipient. Do the right thing. Take the time to type the message. 🙂

Pre commit hooks are the devil and you can't convince me otherwise. 😅

The results from State of CSS are out. 2025.stateofcss.com Let's go over some interesting bits...

Nice release! Good luck with the upgrades everyone! 😂

I've been practicing some leetcode recently. I've found that I can't answer questions which I successfully did back in 2020. Does that mean I've got worse as a programmer over the past 5 years? 😂

I went on a bike ride today with a mate and got a puncture. Thanks goodness he's very switched on and had a replacement inner tube. I had no idea what I was doing. Time to nerd up a bit and start learning more about bike maintenance / cycling. 🚵

Have a great weekend everyone. It's lovely and sunny in the UK today! ☀️

Good morning Bluesky 🙂 Have a great Friday!

What is everyone using for AI coding tools these days? Copilot? Cursor? Claude code? I'm currently using cursor for personal projects and copilot at work. Any using Claude Code? Is it worth it? How much is it for normal usage?

Hey everyone 👋🏻. How are we feeling today? I hope you're all having a great day!

How many holes does a straw have? One or two?

What are your thoughts on AI tools with social media, particularly bluesky? 🦋 Do you think they are a good idea? Useful? Or would you rather not see Bluesky have AI content? I feel like twitter has a real problem with AI generated content / spam and am hesitant to bring ai tools to bluesky.

Oh you're a react developer? Name all the components. 😅

Happy new year Bluesky! 🎉🦋 Here's to an amazing 2025! I hope you all have a great evening 🥳

This hits so hard.

I would also like to see @solidjs.com come up through the ranks over the next fews years. Its nicer to write and is just 'better'. It would be cool to see some sort of native bindings (not even sure if that would be possible?).

My bluesky wrapped 2024. 🎁 Earlier on this month I gave blueview.app users the ability to make their own blueksy wrapped. It was a bit of a mixed bag as there were a lot of edge cases which I missed when fetching the data for the video. It was a great learning experience and a lot of fun to do. 😁

I reached 4.5k followers! 🥳 Thanks to everyone who is following me! Have a great Christmas day tomorrow! 🎄🎅 Looking forward to 2025, and some cool new ideas for blueview.app 😁

Happy Christmas eve everyone! I hope you have a lovely day and are spending it with loved ones. Enjoy! 🙂🎄

Good morning Bluesky! 🎄 Its the 1st of December which means Christmas season is officially here! 😁 If you'd like to celebrate with me you can now edit your profile picture on blueview.app to add a bit of a santa flair! 🎅 I've been very much inspired by my children. Ho ho ho! 😂 More to come soon!
