An old html feature that enough people don't seem to know about or use which makes a lot of layouts a lot easier to achieve 👉 Your submit button don't need to be a child-element of its <form>

A break-in. Was gaming a lot ➡️ did some IRC bots etc ➡️ at 13, we had a break-in in our house where the good computer got stolen ➡️ stuck with old computer for six months ➡️ coded more as gaming wasn't possible ➡️ started a website selling cs servers at 16
What’s the lore behind choosing your career path ?

I see a lot of @vercel people who likes @EffectTS_, but @aisdk doesn't feel very Effect (yet?) I don't know where I'm going with this, but can someone please elaborate how it fits, or correct me?

I love seeing how the trpc-style builder/middleware pattern has spread
I've been using @tan_stack Start for a new project and it's super good. The server functions completely replace the need for TRPC/GraphQL/REST, the middleware is composable and fully typed, and having TSRouter's nice typing and stateful search params is icing on the cake. A+!

what I mean with the perceived similarity: both use jsx components solid's components don't rerender after mount remix components have a lexical scope that don't rerender solid's updates happens through signals remix updates happen through explicit update calls

there's nothing like the first few days of a new codebase before you inevitably turn it into a pile of shit
