When I was young Star Trek had tablets and Socialism.
Now we have tablets and no socialism.
I wish we had Socialism and no tablets.

Who else thinks infinite for loops can be elegant? 😍

function calculateYears(principal, interest, tax, desired) {
for (let years = 0; ; years++) {
if (principal >= desired) return years;
principal *= 1 + interest * (1 - tax);
}
}

This is so cool! 😎🎉
I just finished my 100 hours project and wanted to share it with the 100Devs community.

DevLeads (devleads.site) is a complete, self-hosted lead management system I built specifically for freelance web developers. It handles everything from initial contact to final payment.(cont.)

Today I created a pretty efficient backwards loop to format numbers. 1234567 --> "1,234,567"
Then I learned about Number.prototype.toLocaleString('en-US')
So I practiced loops and learned about a built-in #JavaScript method that has not been on my radar before.
I call it a win!

Monthly #SocialAnxiety Meetup on the #100Devs Discord turns 18 in a week!
It's remarkable how much can change over the course of 1.5 years. Lots of downs, some ups.
Life is a rollercoaster.

Cooked dinner for my parents today. They loved it. Unfortunately I improvised so much that I'll never be able to replicate the recipe.

In 2+ years of daily #CodeWars practice, I've evolved from 'just make it work' to 'I need a clever one-liner,' and finally to 'how do I write this in a way that's both readable and efficient?'

Prompted ChatGPT to mock interview me and be brutally honest.
It totally roasts me. 😥
Might need ChatGPT to give me a pep talk now 😅

ChatGPT just answered a coding question and ended it with 'Solidarische Grüße zurück, Genosse', which is German for 'Solidarity greetings back, comrade'.

To get a job as a coder I have to be a very good salesman. Why not just be a salesman at that point?

November of 2024 @leon and I decided to start The Programming Podcast.

What started as a small chuckle at a conference became a huge movement. We both are always blown away by it.

Here are some stats for the last 30 days alone:

I talked to @leonnoel.bsky.social in front of a lot of people in the #100Devs huddle.
So grateful for all the #100Devs folks that show up to the monthly #SocialAnxiety Meetups. Without them I'd be where I was a year ago: buried in my cave thinking I'm the only one suffering from this.

Played a concert at my neighbouring farmer's farm festival yesterday.
Became friends with his donkey.
In other words: I scratched a farmer's ass and he loved it.

On Apollo 11 Lunar Landing Day I'll host my 17th Social Anxiety Meetup on the #100Devs Discord. So I had to go with the theme!
