Temporal! The stage 3 TC39 proposal we all love that fixes JavaScript's Date. Had a lot of movement in '21-'22, but not much in '23. Should we assume it's still on its way to stage 4? Should we feel ok using js-temporal/polyfill — not just to try it, but in prod for big apps?
I'd love to chat with / hear thoughts from the proposal champions: @pipobscure @_sffc @therealptomato (I was only able to find a few of you on Twitter, but I'd love to hear from anyone related to it!)
@DevSimplified you uploaded an awesome video about Temporal in March 2022 — I'd love to hear your thoughts now in Jan 2024 about the current status and whether or not to go all-in on using Temporal today!
An opinionated, encouraging iOS nurse/coach app that uses workouts & health metrics from my Apple Watch, analyzes them w/quarterly blood test & vitals (that I get done at any local lab), and gives me personalized health alerts and suggestions. Local data only w/on-device ML.
One goal I have for 2024 is to completely relearn CSS. So much has changed (for the better!) and I am definitely thinking and writing CSS from the last decade. Time to pretend like I know nothing and learn the CSS of 2024 and beyond!
Migrating your codebase to TypeScript? As I onboard here at Slack, I'm learning about how they migrated from PHP to Hack. They learned it was best to start as low as possible by first typing the results of database queries, then typing return values of functions. Makes sense!

I love this way of thinking about a career. It also happens to be an evidence-based tip to finding satisfaction in your work. Check out the 2023 update to the Career Guide from 80,000 Hours here: 80000hours.org/career-guide/
Immediately yes — can’t wait to start this one. His previous courses were game changers for me.

Today's the day.
My Beginner's TypeScript tutorial has dropped.
And it's free for everyone.

Some of the best moments of my programming career have been when I’m pairing with a junior developer, and we stumble on a thing they’ve never done before, and we step through it together. Then we see it again a week later, and they nail it. That’s what it’s all about!
Replying to @EmmaBostian
Also my hot take of the day: if you, as a senior team member refuse to pair with more junior team members, you’re not only missing out on a learning opportunity yourself but you shouldn’t be in a leadership position.

the older i get, the more rewarding it is for me to have the opportunity to share life lessons with the next generation of makers, doers, dreamers—and the students of the NMI are the best of the best! i am so glad they found it valuable!
DBB students are overwhelmed (in a good way) with all the life hacks, resources and recommendations, and career advice from @awscloud's @kiley0! We are grateful for his time and dedication to helping us all get ready for the real world.
