This week I was on my first podcast!
Congratulations!
Thanks!
Just made a new post this morning about CSS Variables!
And this afternoon I'm picking up a new kitten! There will be plenty of pictures being shared on Twitter!
Ahhhhhh ๐
Yayy! ๐ธ
Good to hear you're picking a new kitten ๐ฑ. Please share more pictures ๐ฅฐ
I got great feedback here and had fun messing around with some PWA stuff as a small task on the side because I was curious.
How to handle outbound links in desktop PWA?

Discussion was really helpful and interesting.
This thread was also a ton of fun!
What are you "old enough to remember" in software development?

Hello there!! Now learning about PHP syntax, MySQL and Phpmyadmin
And yep I cleaned my house too xD
I painted my apartment and finished all my stories for the current sprint before the weekend hit. Also I got news that Winds of Winter might be coming out before summer 2020 which I consider a massive personal win.
Made my first open source contribution. To dev.to :)
Congratulations. I look forward to my that opportunity too. Cheers
Play / learn Gridsome and deploy a small blog with it. I might say that Gridsome looks promising - not yet powerful as GatsbyJS.
I had a bad calf injury last November where I ended up putting on some weight, so I'm pretty stoked that I've dropped about 11 pounds in less than a month and more coming off. I've been eating better, sleeping more and been training like a mofo. ๐ช
Wow! Are you following any specific diet or just overall healthier foods?
Mainly eating less (not starving myself) and not really eating as many carbs. I haven't eaten any pasta in the past month and I'll only occasionally have bread if eating a sandwich. Mostly lots of fluids (water, tea), protein (chicken, tofu) and veggies/fruits. I also generally don't eat anything after 7pm.
I've always trained at the gym by myself but to kickstart things, I joined an Orange Theory. I didn't think I would like group sessions, but so far I like it and I'm not as jiggly now ๐
Awesome! Congrats on the progress :)
Just eat potatoes and rice, works for me every time.
Carbs only would make me put on the pounds. ๐
I'm on week 2 of daily coding and haven't missed a day so far!
I also started looking into JAMstack and it's been super fun.
Published a GitHub repo to automate ES6 to ES5 processing with a detailed documentation which provides a ready to go configuration that is aimed to give the JavaScript developer the capability to quickly set up a Node.js environment and deliver ES5 from ES6 without wasting time in the maze of Babel configuration options and its plugins...
It gives out of the box the minimum settings to start a new project or evaluate any new ideas and it includes one HTML code base to fulfill this objective as well.
Check it out ! ES6 to ES5 transpilation with Babel.js and Node.js
Feedback appreciated ! ;)
Iโve been working at my first tech job as a junior software dev for almost 5 months now and my job just allowed all developers to work remote. I was nervous at first because Iโm still not 100% confident in myself, but itโs actually been going well so far and Iโm excited about it! ๐
hows working as a junior dev like? especially fully remote. do you feel like you might be reaping 'gains' slower vs if you were to be in a physical office with the rest of the team members? 'gains' in terms of learning and experience-wise as a dev.
i like remote. but i hate it when i ping ppl on slack and they're non-responsive unless i repeatedly send them messages, lol.
I really love it. One of the best perks is being able to work in a silent, controlled space whereas our office space isnโt consistently quiet. Weโre not fully remote, we have to be in office two days out of the week, and we all have to be in on Fridays to have a dev discuss. As for communication, our team of developers is really small, so we all stay in contact because thereโs not many of us.
2 days seems like a good balance =)
I completed a couple of articles I've been working on. One of them is on productivity as developers.
I made a minimal blog starter for Gridsome!
