There's this idea that has stuck with me since the early days working with John Resig on the jQuery team, when he shared that the end goal of the library should be to make itself unnecessary (in jQuery's case by influencing practices and standards). Some polyfills took that idea further by using feature checks to silently exit once their API gained native browser support. Today's popular frameworks address different problems, but it feels like a similar moment for thoughtful planning nonetheless

@scottjehl I'd argue that most modern frameworks don't take that message to heart, though. I can count on one hand the number of libraries that plan to obsolete themselves.

@nflamel Right? It just hits on SO MANY THINGS in a scant 6 minutes.

Disappointment from authority figures. Comments from peers. Internalized feelings of failure. Finding your place of belonging and that thing you're good at. Meeting people who "get" you and accept you as you are.

I fucking love Bluey, but this episode is just one of the best, hands down.

This of course means the US won't do it, because Biden is a fucking Israel-bootlicking coward.

friends, I could use your help! 👋

My brother, Tim, is an amazing project manager! His team was laid off (without severance 😞) days before Thanksgiving weekend due to biz dev pipelines (not performance-related).

He’s been applying and interviewing in the months since, gets exclusively positive feedback… but every opportunity seems to evaporate. 😕

He just launched a personal website (). Please share it with whoever might be interested: https://timsticka.com/

@tylersticka "without severance days before Thanksgiving"

Many FUCK this dystopian capitalist hellscape. This shit should be illegal.

Retooted, and I'm so sorry for what your brother is going through. If it's at all useful, I've got some career resources I'd be happy to share with him as well from my time in HR.

@tylersticka Have him email me directly so I can get him setup with some stuff (if he wants). Some if it may be "beneath him" at this point in terms of what he already knows.
