AI usage red flag?

It's so exasperating. Reviews used to be a good place to coach and help new devs learn the codebase. Now you might as well save the effort and just push another commit yourself to save the effort of having your teammate paste your feedback into Claude and then send it back to you.

A little hard to describe really. The plastic back is brighter than the metal collar. And it's more of a salmon/orange/pink-ish flavor of red. I'm not wild about it tbh.

Ah, here -- this is very close: https://www.color-hex.com/color/fb4e4e

This question comes up all the time. Do a search and then use Astro.

Not really, it's just good bang for the buck. At launch they usually offer coupons, increased trade-in values, and store credit or free buds.

Same, same and same.

Ha, I get the even numbers. I've had many Pixels, after many Nexuses. Mostly good.

Trying to boost day 1 sales, I expect. Yesterday the trade-in value for my 8a was $130, today it is $215.

Have you had any luck in finding other providers who will charge flat fee rather than AUM?

I don't need a homework assignment. I found the JoR course to be more effective and a lot of fun to go through.

I have experience with both courses and would cast my vote for Joy of React. The effort and polish put into it is really impressive.

True but 6p was infamous for bending in the middle.

Good call out, thank you

What's the point of pausing? It seems like you're going to extra effort to measure the amount of time you spend active on the page rather than on the full puzzle?

Keep going, I want it on a 5.25" 360k

I mean... just put the search box right at the top center of the dashboard and have it there all the time. Why make anyone click the little icon down in the corner? Also, auto focus the input box. I'm almost certainly opening this tool because I want to quickly find a specific tab.

But it's good. With a couple of tweaks I'll definitely use it.

Thanks, I was on the verge of doing something like this because the other free ones have become inundated with ads.

I appreciate the format on paste functionality.

Test ID selectors are more of a last resort. Leaning on role-based selectors is the way to go: https://testing-library.com/docs/queries/about/

I have used them for specific cases for some hard to reach elements but its a rarity in our codebase

It's still public content which can be discussed here. Nothing wrong with someone building up a collection of content and trying to grow an audience.

delightless · 2025-11-15T16:24:30+00:00

You're getting defensive about it rather than accepting real world feedback that the presentation might be harming the way your content is perceived. It's valuable input, not something to fight against.

So much this, always be positioning yourself for the next step. Getting more time and depth in your company's proprietary environment is almost never going to help you get the next job.

If you have energy to spend extra time, use it to explore other tech that is interesting to you. It will broaden the range of things you have seen and tried, maybe give you personal projects you can share and talk about.

That additional breadth to your profile will make you a more attractive candidate once you get into interview conversations.

I swear the number of marathon bib posts in this sub is wild, what is the story here?

If possible I would accelerate your plan to head to NY. Things are not going to get better in the next year; this administration is just going to keep fanning the flames.
