new Date("wtf") How well do you know JavaScript's Date class?

I scored 16/28 on jsdate.wtf and all I got was this lousy text to share on social media.

Great news! Do you know if the IAAP will also grant CAE credits towards the renewal of a WAS certification for the course?

Bringing communities and cultures together through Bhangra
YouTube video by Citizenship and Immigration Canada / Citoyennetรฉ et Immigration Canada Bringing communities and cultures together through Bhangra

Throughout human history, migration has been a vital part of people to find food, shelter, new life and explore. If we are living in one country now, we even donโ€™t know where our past 10th generation lived. Let humanity flow the way it has been for thousands of years.

Let me say this clearly. The tariffs are a money grab. Less money in the hands of the American people due to the new 25% tax on goods. More money to distribute to his cronies in the form of tax cuts.

See how it works?

I genuinely am! Our team is preparing for a v1 release of our new design system and we just wrapped up some usability testing with product devs โ€“ an opportunity I really appreciate, even though itโ€™s totally unfamiliar for a little olโ€™ React developer.

I love this concept! But if individual teams or groups are creating independent recipe libraries, how do you promote discovery across teams?

It seems like thereโ€™s a risk of silos being created and wheels being re-invented. The cross pollination of ideas and techniques would also be ideal, imo.
