I’m going to be in NY during @reactsummit.gitnation.org, but I’m attending a work offsite and won’t be able to make the event.

Who has a dust filter for a Hoover Max Extract Pressure Pro Model 60 and wants to smuggle me into the after party?

We were at this all morning.

One of us didn’t want it to stop, the other never wants it to end.

"I have a decent fluency in LLMs, and they have utility, but the absurd degree of over-hype, the way they're being forced on everyone, and the insistence on ignoring the many valid critiques about them make it very difficult to focus on legitimate uses where they might add value."

My dog turned 6 today

I was competing in a cycling event with friends. I felt guilty about missing her birthday, so I took her along for the ride!

Happy birthday, Kiwi 🎈

Hey @kentcdodds.com 👋

I convinced a BE colleague interested in learning FE to pick up Epic React, but he bought Epic Web by mistake.

Is there any way to transfer the course, and if so, are there any conditions or requirements?

Thanks
