I've been making web apps for decades, and this is possibly the most chaotic confusing email I've ever received - imagine getting this if you're not tech savvy, what the hell would you make if it?!

Randomly thinking about how good tekpub was back in the day, really levelled up my .NET - thanks @robconery.com !

If you use slack, then you need to know that you can use the vim substitute command for your last message:

/s/typoo/fixed

You're welcome.

I'm really enjoying #golang, but sometimes the code feels long winded - here for example I just want to conditionally add a param, it's not the most succinct here πŸ€”

I can’t tell you how freeing it is to ditch x totally. Annoyingly I’ve still got a Facebook account since so many kids clubs etc use it.

Just installed your app on the back on this skeet 😁 I like it so far, really nice. Only feedback (and it might just be me), I would deffo pay a one off tenner for the app, but as a sub it’s making me hesitate a bit

Is this kind of theme good for an astigmatism? I usually use a dark theme on.. πŸ€”

I’m sick of all the labour bashing everywhere these da… hang on. Wtf starmer. You idiot.

The nicest thing is the freedom from the abstractions that .net puts over everything. You want to manage web sessions? Sure - write your own session handler!

I'm not sure if I can say #golang is more productive for me than all my years of .NET but I'm really really enjoying it :)

Have you tried Cody from
Sourcegraph? That’s what I’m using, it’s very good too

Starter packs are great to get going, but for me it feels a bit like I can’t find my β€œfavourite people” any more since there’s so much noise now. Hmmmm.

Golang is so boring. Very few new language features. Predictable boring code.
And I bloody love it.

Hmm since I followed @theguardian.com - my "following" feed is 80% posts from them since they post so much.

I like too. It’s a much more laid back place, everyone’s being polite. Will it last?

Hello, I’m trying to think of something to say as my first post. Truth is no-one will ever beat β€œed balls”.
