It was so fun watching all the submissions come in, and all the votes affect the rankings! Loving this piece someone submitted and looking forward to the next. I think the drawing function could do with some love, undo button and colour picker seem important. #pebble #repebble

@ericmigi.com Thanks for making tech that motivated me to build things. I love the toy projects that bring people close, like this watch face. Submit a small doodle, and vote on doodles to end up on peoples wrists for a week. apps.repebble.com/the-tile_4c6... @repebble.com #pebble #repebble

The watch face the internet draws. Each week the community draws 16x16 pixel-art tiles and votes head-to-head; the winning tile is crowned at Sunday midnight UT

Serverless doesn't always have to mean vendor "lock-in".

Has anyone managed to hide "self-reposts"? I often get reposts that are reposting something from the same account. I don't know if it's an engagement strategy but I'm not interested in "bumping" 3 week old posts, any ideas short of an unfollow? Or is it some kind of bug causing it?

Brilliant read, thanks @konradreiche.com ! I'm thinking of how I can apply this to my own codebases, I use JSON APIs so the fake services feel like they will be harder to set up, with more boilerplate, but will give it a try!

In #golang we have a name for go code with the fingerprints of a Java developer on it: Gava Such as `NewThingFactory() Thing`. I've been playing with a bit of #rust and was curious, has anyone got examples of: Gust: Go written by a Rust developer Or Ro: Rust written by a Go developer
