Jimmy Callin @callin.cc · 25/10/2025@tkdodo.eu hi! would you be open to expose `useQueryResult.invalidate()`, instead of having to do `queryClient.invalidateQueries(query.queryKey)`? I'm noticing colleagues reaching for `queryResult.refresh()` simply because it's more easily available. 220

Reposted by Jimmy CallinJason Gorman @jasongorman.bsky.social · 18/05/2025It's fascinating watching developers discover they get better results using "A.I." if they prompt with tests, work in small steps, test continuously, review and refactor throughout, integrate often, and work in smaller teams, and attributing those results to autocomplete. 29127
