Random beautiful fall afternoon thought: Omaha hype is high lately - tech scene - city growth - airport expansion - streetcar line going in - metro at 1.1 mill and growing --- going to be a handful of remote-work centers in this next century --- so don't sleep on Omaha!

💪 Omaha's downtown is strong! just ahead of Nashville and just behind Phoenix in recovery of cell phone usage since the pandemic https://downtownrecovery.com

Really considering starting to post recipes on a blog, not because I want to be a “food blogger” (ugh) but purely because the web deserves some un-bloated, ad-free, tracking-free recipes somewhere

@keithjgrant Someone shared https://cooked.wiki with me recently, and it is a decent start!

Kotlin's mapNotNull is beautiful magic

Love how Kotlin builds in helpers to all sorts of random things that Java never got around to doing. The padStart function came in super handy when saving data to a mainframe today and needing to pad zero's in front of the last four of an SSN:

request.ssnLastFour?.padStart(9, '0')

A health thing everybody should know is that if an older person suddenly loses their entire mind, that’s not 24-hour-onset dementia, it’s a UTI. They need antibiotics and then they’ll be fine.

@waldoj thank you for this, and the timing was so perfect. Someone had boosted this from you and I read it a week or so ago. Like 1 or 2 days later my grandma ended up in the hospital with stroke-like symptoms. I never would have guessed UTI but that’s exactly what it was. And remembering your message, I found and sent my mom some articles to read. Grandma got a ton better from the antibiotics and the UTI articles gave us hope when things were low. So thank you for the knowledge!

Does anyone have a password manager recommendation that's user-friendly for less technical users? We switched to 1Password last year and it has honestly been a nightmare for my wife

@keithjgrant if in the Apple ecosystem, I’ve found the built-in iCloud password manager thing is pretty family-friendly

I see yet-another-react-form-library was released, but this time part of the core itself. interesting. not sure how to react https://react.dev/blog/2024/04/25/react-19

plus some react-query like hooks for async behavior. helpful but I'll be curious to see how much the community adopts it.

@jeffsheets@hachyderm.io avatar

at this point when going to a client project and they ask if you have "React experience", you really have to ask for an unlimited number of permutations to figure out which "style" of React they use

jeffsheets,
@jeffsheets@hachyderm.io avatar

the embracing of web components seems pretty slick though. I hope that makes waves

jeffsheets,
@jeffsheets@hachyderm.io avatar

@emurphy ha knockout nice! Yeah React isn’t great for lots of reasons, but it’s everywhere at clients so it definitely pays the consulting bills the last few years

@jeffsheets You happen to see the twister?

jeffsheets,
@jeffsheets@hachyderm.io avatar

@emurphy no, thanks for checking in, I looked but never did see it, luckily. Some parts of town got it really bad though

@emurphy luckily keeping my streak of never having seen a tornado while living in the Midwest — probably a surprising stat to those not from around here like us
