exhausted after work?
imagine your energyās a 10-gallon tank, empty by 5pm.
what if you doubled it to 20-gallons?
tiny weekly changes -> big impact on my energy
i'd love to help more folks boost their energy

- I'm beyond excited to share that next week, I will be starting a new role as an Open Source Developer Advocate at @facebook in Seattlešš„³
- It's been a long 4 months building this and it's nowhere near complete but I think this is a good stopping point to share the MVP. mentored.dev - A "gamified" learning platform to help you become a web developer. The first lesson? the basics of the command line š
00:00
such a relief to finally complete the MVP for a project - I am so pumped. My first React + TypeScript tutorial has dropped. And it's free! š§µ
- I've been rejected from: - Twilio (3 times) - Twitter - Apollo - Netlify - Gatsby - Microsoft - Amazon - Cloudflare - ConvertKit - Discord - Figma - GitLab - GitHub - Sentry Don't get discouraged during your job hunt! You're still awesome and will land in the right place šSeems like as good a time as any. Iāve been rejected from: - twilio - twitter - stripe - Apollo - microsoft - Netflix (didnāt see that one coming, did you)
- I am stoked this is ready. My second TypeScript tutorial is out now. And it's free! š§µ
- What's a book you read that changed the way you write/think about code?
- If you feel like you're stuck in "tutorial purgatory", it might be time to build your own project. It sounds scary because it is. Because that's where the real learning happens. "Unstick" yourself and try building something on your own
- I wrote an article called "React with TypeScript: Best Practices" where I covered: - How React and TS work together - Configuration - Components - Props - Basic Hooks - Common Use Cases - Third-party Libraries - Resources to go further
- I wish small groups were a thing. 1. Pick something you want to learn (e.g. Rust) 2. Use a learning path/course/book 3. Find 2-3 people to do it with you 4. Meet 1x/week for 1-hour to discuss and pair-program 5. Cheer each other on and finish together Wouldn't that be neat?
- Random question for y'all Imagine this scenario. 1. You're online (mobile or desktop) 2. You see something that looks interesting (link to something) 3. You don't have time to read/watch now, but want to do it later. What do you do? (i.e. what's your system?)
