Jacob Chadwell @jacobchadwell.com · 12/03/2026Decided on a 14" MBP for my next work computer 💻 This will be my first time ever having the smaller size, but I've been convinced by many it's the way to go, especially for focus. Now my question is - if you're working in full screen more often with a smaller size, how to you manage your windows? 200
Jacob Chadwell @jacobchadwell.com · 09/02/2026guess i should have pushed to prod at the end of the week, huh github? 010

Jacob Chadwell @jacobchadwell.com · 12/01/2026As someone who works from their laptop most of the time, I'm having an unusally hard time deciding between another 16" laptop or moving to a 14" when I upgrade. 100
Jacob Chadwell @jacobchadwell.com · 10/12/2025Earlier this year, I led the development of the Streaks feature in @buffer.com so when I lost my streak a couple weeks ago I was very tempted to log into MongoDB and *cough* accidentally repair my streak *cough*. I would never do that, of course 240

Jacob Chadwell @jacobchadwell.com · 06/10/2025Since I'm in my 30s now, I judge the quality of DOB fields in UI's by the following metric: "does this make me feel old?" 100

Jacob Chadwell @jacobchadwell.com · 19/08/2025writing code while my lil' bean knits socks is rather delightful @hankgreen.bsky.social 010
Jacob Chadwell @jacobchadwell.com · 19/08/2025Something I've learned this year: burnout can happen even when things are going well! By all measures, both life and work are better than ever, but I'm *tired*. Like a deep, deep tiredness 😴 100
Jacob Chadwell @jacobchadwell.com · 13/08/2025The afternoon coffee is a dangerous game. Will it keep me awake all night? Who knows! 🤷♂️ 000

Jacob Chadwell @jacobchadwell.com · 29/07/2025usually desk-jacob or coffee shop-jacob is the most productive, but today, couch-jacob has been getting things DONE 💪 010
Jacob Chadwell @jacobchadwell.com · 18/07/2025One of my favorite perks of working at Buffer is our coffee shop coworking allowance 🫡 It’s amazing how getting out of the house for an hour or two does wonders for my productivity (and mental health, let’s be honest) Prefer a coworking space? We’ll cover that instead! 120
Jacob Chadwell @jacobchadwell.com · 11/07/2025Always love making a giant pot of veggie broth once I save enough scraps. Makes a delicious base for some of our favorite soups: minestrone, pasta e fagoli, and lentil soup 😋 100
Jacob Chadwell @jacobchadwell.com · 03/07/2025Recently hit my 3 year mark @buffer.com, and thought I'd celebrate in a way that feels most true to myself: with coffee ☕️ Here are some fun Buffer coffees over the years: 140
Jacob Chadwell @jacobchadwell.com · 24/06/2025One of my summer sprint (buff.ly/JLyuk3v) goals is to go on a walk most days, regardless of the temperature. It's been such a great way to disconnect for an hour. Today, it was a balmy 93 F, but I did it anyway and it was still a lovely time in nature! Not pictured: me, extraordinarily sweaty. 100
Jacob Chadwell @jacobchadwell.com · 22/05/2025This week, I’m starting what I’m calling a "summer sprint". After planning it for a few weeks, I'm excited for a couple months of focused energy across three areas, while taking advantage of warm weather and longer days here in Nashville. Here's what I'm up to: 110
Jacob Chadwell @jacobchadwell.com · 06/05/2025I feel like I’m 10+ years late to the iPad party, but I got one recently for the first time, and it’s actually quite lovely. I’m using it as a distraction-free tool to conduct a lot of the non-code activities of my job at @buffer.com Here's how I'm using it lately: 120
Jacob Chadwell @jacobchadwell.com · 03/05/2025When the checked luggage is “with you” on the last of three flights for the day 🥲 010
Jacob Chadwell @jacobchadwell.com · 02/05/2025So fun to cross this huge milestone in person with the @buffer.com team 🤩🤩 040
Jacob Chadwell @jacobchadwell.com · 29/04/2025Days 1 and 2 of the @buffer.com retreat in Türkiye 🙌 All-hands sessions, bugfixes by the pool, and FaceTiming the pup from 6000 miles away 191
Jacob Chadwell @jacobchadwell.com · 24/04/2025When it comes to posting on socials, I tend to overthink it. This time around, I'm going to treat it like an experiment, trying a few things but focusing on consistency over everything else: 110
Jacob Chadwell @jacobchadwell.com · 14/04/2025I mentioned in my AI chat *once* that I like espresso, and now it suggests I do everything with an espresso in hand 😅 110
Jacob Chadwell @jacobchadwell.com · 05/04/2025Very niche Nashville thing here, but Crest Honda calling me during a tornado warning to schedule an oil change is a vibe 010
Jacob Chadwell @jacobchadwell.com · 18/03/2025me wanting to be outside all the time 🤝 seasonal allergies 000
Jacob Chadwell @jacobchadwell.com · 06/03/2025New bag of coffee beans. How many espressos shall I make today? ☕️ 010

Jacob Chadwell @jacobchadwell.com · 18/12/2024Cozy December day = The Hobbit soundtrack. I don't make the rules. 010
Jacob Chadwell @jacobchadwell.com · 17/12/2024My one wish is for my dog to enjoy rainstorms so that during them, she snuggles with me instead of hiding in the closet shaking uncontrollably 🫶 010
Jacob Chadwell @jacobchadwell.com · 10/12/2024It's that time of year when I reuse the weirdest boxes from around my apartment to wrap Christmas presents. Almost-empty baking soda box? Perfect for a tiny gift. 010
Jacob Chadwell @jacobchadwell.com · 04/12/2024The only thing Spotify-wrapped showed me was how low my usage was this year. I've become increasingly annoyed by their app and their playlists, which (to me) don't seem to be well-curated anymore. It might be time for a switch! 💡 000
