@FixieAI Nice! I'm considering flying up from San Francisco. Will you be coming here next? Or would it be possible to join remotely?

@jamison_dance I only implicitly use it via redux. Otherwise I think it's better to pass props down in most cases. The docs have a good section about using it sparingly: beta.reactjs.org/learn/passing-…

r/place sets a new precedent for online events. This was something special and it's success will inspire more events that bring the internet together.

Guys r/place is so incredible it makes me want to cry. it's a visual representation of the collective memes of reddit-esque humanity; symbols abound, the larger the symbol the greater a mass of humans who've managed to coordinate behind it. LET ME TAKE YOU ON A JORUNEY 1/

There’s no real way to describe a Jerma stream, in the sense that you never know what's in store when he goes live. From games, science experiments, dollhouse simulations and even finding his replacement, @jerma985 rightfully deserves #TheStreamerAwards League of their Own Award!

@reactjs Good stuff but according to caniuse, only 92% of browser usage has queueMicrotask, which isn't enough for us. Will there be a fallback/polyfill? caniuse.com/?search=queueM…

@droneblog Correction on this article - droneblog.com/san-francisco/ "Golden Gate Park, the National Park land surrounding the base of the Golden Gate Bridge" GGP is actually not the park touching GG Bridge, it's a separate stretch inland (I made the same mistake before moving here)

No-code has been a big trend, and it might seem like it's a maturing market/landscape, but that couldn't be further from the truth. We're maybe at ~5% of the innovation we'll see in this space over the next few decades. It's where the internet was in ~1999. Just getting started!

Dead zones are essential, I use 3px for mouse and 10px for touch.

I wrote a blog post about how "dead zones" can improve dragging UX.💀 steveruiz.me/posts/dead-zone

@_chenglou @steveruizok Better yet, just start the dragging at the point it passes the dead zone, instead of using the mouse-down point

@Hicksyfern @steveruizok My old laptop touchpad did this and it was the most annoying thing ever, so it can definitely go wrong. Might still be a good idea though.

@CodingCatDev When designing user-facing no-code systems, how do you decide between low-level tools that are are very flexible and high-level that are solve specific problems?
