This week, I released a new podcast where developers talk about what got them into programming, the path they took, why they enjoy it, and what they struggle with. Join me as we talk about the Human Side of Dev!

New episodes released Tuesdays.

Been playing a good amount of Mausritter by @losing recently (TTRPG), it's really fun and the community has been very nice. Saw this Kickstarter for an adventure setting on their discord and it sounds really fun to play with!

I had the opportunity to speak with Dillon and @jfmengels on Elm Radio about using @vite with Elm! It was so much fun getting to chat with them. Hope you enjoy the episode!

@vrandecic I'll put some thought into this, nothing is immediately jumping to mind that can handle sticky labels on the lefthand side.

@vrandecic Sorry, just saw this. What specific features are you looking for?

@seldo Sounds lovely.

(In Elm, the standard is comma-first, and I love it)

@wolfadex I think discussing pros/cons, tradeoffs, and alternatives is fine and reasonable. But the key is having a discussion, with the assumption that those involved are reasonable and seeking understanding/improvement.

A lot of the hot takes I've seen on Tailwind (for example) are just dunks with the goal of making utility CSS look dumb and labeling anyone who likes it as clearly a bad developer. It's just not constructive.

Also, there's zero reason to not write custom CSS selectors *and* use Tailwind. It's all CSS, it works together wonderfully.

Apparently my statement from a couple months ago is no longer correct. Mastodon now has plenty of takes about Tailwind.

Can't we have a platform where people just use the tools they enjoy, and don't worry about what other people are doing? Do we really have to be as heated here as on Twitter?

If you like Tailwind, great! So do I. It's lovely to work with.

If you don't like Tailwind, that's fine! Nobody's telling you to.

@LauraLangdon I stopped watching when Capaldi took over and currently doing a full rewatch, I'm excited to see what Capaldi is really like.

Finished writing up my 2022 year in review! It was a really hard year, hoping that 2023 can be a restful reprieve after it.

@khalidabuhakmeh @eleventy I used Gatsby when version 2 came out. It was fine at the time, but since then I have a better grasp on what I want a static site generator to do, and that's not it. I'd rather turn to something like 11ty or Astro at this point.

I recently had the opportunity to appear on PodRocket to discuss Functional Programming and Elm!

@seldo Is it possible they read the post more recently?

@thomasreggi thanks!

Playing D&D with my 7yo is a blast! Really enjoying how they get into the story and flow of the game, and rolling dice is always fun.

Less than two weeks left, we can make it! Let’s go 2023!

@b When meeting someone I was going on a trip with, instead of clarifying that sometimes I can't remember faces, I said "I'm bad at people." Still want to hide in a deep dark hole for that one.
