An absolutely unsurprising but still gross move from Shopify. Pay attention to who is taking advantage of the prevailing political winds to jump back on the white supremacy bus as soon as they possibly can. betakit.com/shopify-quie...

I've used Unix and open-source software since 1988. (Yes, even before "open source" was coined). A Mac has been my primary computer since 2003.
And yet, I only discovered this great resource for MacOS configuration and tools (including lots I didn't know before) today: sourabhbajaj.com/mac-setup/

“Don’t Repeat Yourself” is advice that only makes sense when developers are talking about semantics.
Even if two passages of code are identical, unless a change to one should always change the other nothing has been repeated.

TIL about defining `…` as your method arguments, and how you can forward these arguments as-is in the body of your method.
Reminds me of RSpec’s `and_wrap_original` API on mock (spy?) objects.
Has anyone ever used this in production code?
