Well thanks @engadget for making me feel old AF engadget.com/winamp-mp3-pla…
well that was cool. I just pushed my first @obsdmd plugin for approval. github.com/dpickett/open-… kudos to the devs what a great experience for extending the application. If you’re not using a tool to keep track of your notes, I highly recommend it.
good bye old dusty friend. You pushed a lot bits and bytes for me. Out with the (very) old and in with the new.
"WFH is terrible for new grads"
Happy Tuesday everyone! A set of releases has occurred! These releases address an important security issue, so please check it out! More information is here: rubyonrails.org/2022/7/12/Rail…
"We need to push beyond the basic frameworks, and figure out what is right for our organization." — @jboogie jeffgothelf.com/blog/agile-fra…
“The development of remarkable software starts with solid communication…”
Great to see someone credible calling out the hype of web3 and crypto with sound basis. moxie.org/2022/01/07/web…
We’re getting ready to pre-launch our Foundations course. If you’ve learned to code or are learning now, what held you back or slowed you down the most?
Great article highlighting some lesser known and obscure HTML attributes buff.ly/3kJotKN
Look mom, I'm writing again. What to Do BEFORE You Hire a Developer - buff.ly/2QvFF6f I'm going to be writing more articles and content to help folks that want to build software, so if you find it useful, please share this with someone that would benefit.
wonderful example of simultaneously dogfooding and articulating a user-facing roadmap: github.com/github/roadmap… I especially love the simple 3 headlines for each feature: Summary, Intended Outcome, How it Will Work 💥
Congratulations to all of the @Hack_Diversity Fellows. Very impressed by both the coding and the design of the prototypes that I’ve seen so far! Can’t wait to see what you all continue to do for Boston tech!
Thinking I will livestream building a Cares Act "how much is my stimulus check?" calculator in React. 2:30pm EST today. Continuing to play around with livestreaming small projects for everyone interested in learning. Lmk if that excites you. #learnprogramming
You can build a better future with technology, and you don't need to be a rocket scientist to do it. To prove it, I built a COVID-19 Tracker for Massachusetts Please share with someone that would be inspired to change the world through learning to code launchacademy.com/building-a-cov…
Figured I’d play with some twitch streaming while working on a React COVID-19 data visualization project @ twitch.tv/dpickett15 - let’s give this a try
While we put the health and safety of our students, team, and community first, the learning and launching of careers at @LaunchAcademy isn’t going to stop. We’re ready to meet the challenge, together: launchacademy.com/a-response-to-…
A lesson in leadership from WeWork changes. They’re pretending like they’re improving the options and selection: wouldn’t it just be better to say “hey look, we made many mistakes and now we’re operating more intelligently. To keep rents low, we’re eliminating beer.” Transparent
On human skills: “If you’re an engineer who can’t communicatie, you’ll end up working for one who can.” - George Westerman, MIT #LearnLaunch2020
There are books you read that totally blow your mind and change the way you think about something you're deeply passionate about. When it comes to entrepreneurship, @claychristensen inspired me and shaped the way @LaunchAcademy was born. RIP and thank you. cnn.it/2RsZ5u5

Things I know at 41, I wish I had known at 21. 🧵
In the sea of content out there, I know I'm not the only one to have a never-ending list of articles to read or pods to listen to. That's why I created an "expiring todo" list. For "nice to haves", if I don't get to them within 30 days, they automatically disappear! 💫
Here's my original post. Essentially, marketing is powerful only once you know who you are marketing TO. If you have no money, it implies no revenue, so focus on that first through good old fashioned sales. That earns you revenue AND understanding to reinvest in marketing.
