if you happen to write a useful tool with oh-so-fancy addition, and said addition is a) not needed for the tool to work, b) has significantly more requirements than the tool,
PLEASE make building the addition optional. And test if --without-… really works.
Hear me out. #Tinder but rather than for dating, it's so that #opensource#developers can find open source #designers and bring things to fruition. I call it… okay, I don't have a punchline for the joke. But it's low-key a good idea.
Your boss, manager or client will never ask you to take time to refactor your code. They'll never ask you to set up a test suite for the code you wrote. They'll never ask you to upgrade your framework.
Do these things every day. Make them a part of your process. You don't need permission.
At the recent @w3c member meeting in Hiroshima 🇯🇵, @simone - new W3C Security Lead - outlined a three-pillar approach to security: developing security standards, verifying those standards, and guiding #developers to create a secure web.
This workbook takes the code review anxiety intervention that we designed and tested in our empirical research (https://osf.io/preprints/psyarxiv/8k5a4) & distills it into a self-paced workbook for you. It's designed for you to read & work through as many times as you wish and provides you with the tools you need to mitigate & manage your anxiety about giving or receiving code reviews.
The current frequency of language usage on the Web (e.g. 52% of websites in English) doesn't reflect the diverse cultural and linguistic needs essential for global access, highlighting the importance of internationalization (i18n).
Fuqiao Xue, @w3c i18n activity lead, gave a comprehensive report of past and future @webi18n work, collaborating with spec and #browser#developers to address gaps, particularly for endangered scripts and #languages.
Thanks – to the countless software developers and contributors who rarely, or never, receive a personal thank-you.
Some of the most challenging projects can trigger unfairly negative responses, when positive updates are offered. To the few developers who are bold and generous enough to take on these extraordinary challenges: a very special thank-you. You know who you are.
*Use /search for search (/search?query=something)

*Allow searching for hashtags in admin UI
*Convert Redux state to Typescript #MastoAdmin#devops#Programmers#dev.

I paid for a subscription. And they are now effectively blocking #Firefox, at least on #Linux. Every fetch requires me to "verify I'm a human" so none of the images or #javascript load. It works in #chromium (for now...?)
How can we reduce #code review anxiety? Our intervention reduced code review anxiety, increased self-efficacy, & increased self-compassion. Our intervention, which focused on cognitive restructuring (where folks identify, challenge, & reframe negatively biased thoughts to be more realistic and compassionate), likely worked by increasing folks’ self-efficacy & self-compassion.
