People that hate JavaScript... are not the people you should be taking advice about JavaScript from.

I just made a new site! It's a playground for all major CSS Minifiers, and it runs right in the browser. That... was not easy to do, since all except one expect to have Node/File System access, or are written in Go/Rust/Dart/etc. A lot of WASM my dudes. #CSS #WebDev - thejaredwilcurt.com/playground

I made an important discovery with AI. If you want it to NOT do something, telling it not to do it, does not reliably work. Instead give it a reason not to do it. I've been trying "Do X. Do not, under any circumstance, do Y (it kills actual humans)!". So far, it's barely killed anyone. #AI #prompt

Getting real tired of StackOverflow mods editing my correct answers. I'm gonna start moving my shit off their site over to dev.to (dev.to/thejaredwilc...). I'm open to suggestions for alternative Dev focused blog sites, since dev.to has become completely overrun with AI slop. #devlogs #programming

Just did a new release of Vue-Doxen. You can now document your deprecated props better. It also no longer wraps live slot content in an HTML element. Let's talk about that. thejaredwilcurt.com/vue-doxen

Wow, learned a lot about #APCA this past week. My Vue-Dev-Tools #Accessibility plugin now supports color contrast checking with #WCAG 2 AA & AAA, along with APCA Bronze & Silver. Still more to do on the library, but #Vue devs can start trying it out now: vue-dev-tools-accessibility.github.io #a11y

I'm so tired of ESLint-Plugin-Import having a wild new issue on ever repo I try to upgrade to ESLint 9. I like the new flatconfig, it was the right move, but boy does this upgrade path suck. Can someone fork that plugin, fix it to work with ESLint 9 and with Vue files.

Thanks to Michael & Alex over at the DejaVue podcast for having me on. Check it out, we talk about Vue, unit testing, and my Vue-specific snapshot plugin for #Jest / #Vitest which made Michael say "I don't think I would use snapshots without this serializer." 😲 #Vue.js #vuejs #vue #unittests #webdev
