In many of my comms about the TanStack attack, I mentioned a list we published to keep us accountable. But I only realized that this was removed between the draft I saw and the public publication. We'll have this all in a blog post very soon, but 🧵 on what we're fixing

Chat just informed me that "#region" and "//MARK:" can be used to annotate the minimap in VS Code.

Most companies have similar business needs for their software, but not all needs are met equally IE: Error handling. Critical for biz needs. Yet so many companies I've seen absolutely neglect it. Why? Not enough engineers focusing on that discipline Get good at that stuff and you'll be unstoppable
For a basic crud app, you have "must haves", "Nice to haves", and "Polish". In each are different skills, like "Data fetching" or "Remote logging". These skills are differently weighted between how often a company does them and how valuable they are for individuals to have as skills on a team.

I don't think I have what it takes to be the CEO of an AI company. Like, "We're gonna need to build $100b of infra." "Wait, seriously? How much energy is that going to use?" "Well, we need to build a nuclear powerplant first." "We need to build a fucking nuclear powerplant too?!"

If you're in VS Code, what are some custom settings/themes you can't live without? Personally I like the side bar on the right and cmd+1-0 to navigate between open tabs.

React.tv just got a huge face lift with a much more modern design. Also, thanks to a bunch of suggestions from users we now get you directly into the action. The landing page has been replaced with a channel browser which lets you discover content right away. Give it a try right now at React.tv

📝 New article: You should be using unitless values for line-height! In our new blog post we lay out why unitless line height values are good for maintainability, and accessibility. Unitless values inherit from the parent, ensuring it works on all value types.

React Router now has support for React Server Components We're introducing a more powerful RSC-powered Data Mode that brings most of Framework Mode's features to our lower level library APIs

I'm assuming it's being blocked or obscured, but anyone know why Wappalyzer isn't working on a lot of sites nowadays?

I finally have something to point to when arguing with other devs about testing strategy/writing arbitrary tests to meet coverage: Goodhart's Law.

First! Feels weird writing a first post on a SM platform in 2025. Instead of taking it too seriously, I'll start it off with a dev dad joke.
