Like I always tell my partner: If you don’t have a goal, how do you know it’s working? even Atomic Habits has a short chapter on dropping habits that no longer serve a purpose
I think the best writing comes when you’re explaining things that feel painfully obvious but looked like an opaque mystery 5 years ago.
Doing the work is not the same as getting things done. swizec.com/blog/outputs-a…
Devfluencers: TDD is good! You need TDD!!! Impressionable Engineers: expect(callArguments.entry.length).toBe(6)
If you have a state-machine-shaped problem, you'll build your own XState eventually.
Integration surfaces communication gaps. If you keep running into problems, start talking earlier.
Here's how you avoid long drawn out PRs swizec.com/blog/coordinat…
Here's why JavaScript is uniquely suited for IO-bound backend code. swizec.com/blog/43-years-…

Perpetual, limitless growth exists no where in the universe, yet it’s the foundation of our economic system. Might just be me, but that seems problematic.
Google firing excellent software engineers with no explanation, just as its valuation reaches the all-time high: If this doesn't explain how the software engineering market is changing dramatically, I don't know what does. It's not a pretty reality: but better to know about it.
Steve Martin said the way to be successful is to be “undeniably great” at something, so you can’t be ignored. I can think of a lot of examples of this in the software development community. @mattpocockuk, @DavidKPiano, @JoshWComeau, @sarah_edo, @marktechson, @aarondfrancis,…
Has learning about state machines influenced the way you develop, whether or not you use them directly in your code? If so, how? I'd love to know!
Tech twitter is toxic af. Stop trying to assume everyone is nefarious and cancel them for the stupidest fucking shit and go do something productive with your lives.
I have an absolutely stupid hilarious story to tell y’all that happened to me yesterday. Some back story: a girl slid into my DM’s on the facebro and said “hey we should hang out and smoke together sometime” I said sure why not I’m game. So we start texting and she goes…
I am. 😬 (This screenshot makes me want to write some BASIC.)
@Swizec Yes, I did once try to build a Turbo Pascal app. Pascal was my first real programming language after BASIC.
I am a year older today but feel like I reverse aged this year :) People regularly think I'm in my 20s now. I'd love if you could share one change you made in your own life that made you "live better", however you define it? Mine is moving to SF and saying yes to -anything-…
@Swizec I always carry a noco jump pack. they make some pretty small ones.
You can use Express with Bun, but often we see people using Elysia, Hono, or Bun.serve() directly
Interesting how many people are saying to ditch Express for Bun. I thought the whole point of @bunjavascript was to run anything that runs in Node? Surely Bun can run Express just fine ...
@Swizec Came for the “if you like that you’ll love this” / “xxx is so much better” reply guys. Wasn’t disappointed.
@Swizec I think it bootcamp cost selects for people who already have a ton of advantages anyway. If you can cough over 30k, you probably have the means to study full time without worrying about money.
@Swizec I don’t know what bootcamp this is referencing but the three I’m very familiar with: 1. Don’t advertise placement rates (that was a pre-2020 thing most stopped). 2. Don’t claim salaries like that. 3. Are themselves tight on hiring and DO NOT hire anyone as instructors. I am…
@Swizec It’s has the same feel you’re looking for. The main difference architecture-wise is that it’s a plugin based instead of middleware based. Fastify is insanely fast compared to express though. Express is bogged down quite a bit with early node tech debt.
@Swizec In this thread: everyone trying to make it less boring
I'm gonna be honest with ya... This looks like it'll get messy as absolute fuck when you leave trivial examples and build a real application.
