I like to code I’m not passionate about coding I would stop showing up to work if the paychecks stopping coming a job is a job. if a company tries to convince you that it’s more than that (a “family”; a “calling”) that’s a red flag — that gets used to get you to donate time

My barista today asked what I did for work, and when I said development she lit up. “I used to do front-end!” She was excited & told me about projects she‘d worked on. Then she said, “But I left tech because it was too sexist.“ That‘s an unacceptable loss. We need to do better.

might be a nuclear take, but I’d wager more harm is done by devs who love to code & treat their job like a hobby (where they solve fun code puzzles instead of solving their users’ immediate needs) than by devs who do it for the paycheck

meetings on remote teams are hard. we get caught between two conflicting feelings: 1. “I don’t like meetings” 2. “I feel disconnected from my team” I’m increasingly convinced that many (most?) remote teams are having on the wrong kind of meetings (a meetings thread, I guess)

pure CSS animated gradient borders! how it works: - @property — so custom property values interpolate for animation - conic-gradient() — so the gradient can “spin” - OKLCH — *far* better-looking gradients @CodePen link in the next tweet
