Check out the #opensource launch of Helios, the Ember.js-based design system we use to design and build our better, more consistent product UIs. hashi.co/3RnFVmD
After months spent with the entire team working heads down on this project (from building the infrastructure to coming up with a sleek design, from migrating the existing content to reviewing it all line by line and making sure that it was as accessible as possible)...

These layoffs are hitting close to home (not me, but a good friend). If anyone is looking for an amazing design technologist who lives in Seattle, let me know.

I've seen a lot of people asking "why does everyone think Twitter is doomed?"
As an SRE and sysadmin with 10+ years of industry experience, I wanted to write up a few scenarios that are real threats to the integrity of the bird site over the coming weeks.

One of my friends spoke out about her experience with Modern Frontends.
I have some things to say too.
It seems like a lot of people do.

Hi, distributed systems engineer here.
Systems like Twitter are both resilient, and fragile.
So, like... how does this thing end? Does it just run out of gas? The scrolling gets slower and slower and just stops like the big @PriceIsRight wheel, orrrrr.....?

Sometimes I hit a problem Iām fascinated by - all cosy self care goes out the window, time zooms past, itās suddenly 6hours later and I havenāt eaten.

I start late, work slowly and take a lot of breaks, I also work quite late into the evening.
Thatās why flexible hours and remote is so great. You can shape your workday into something that works for you.
I hated 9-5, I hit peak productivity around 3/4pm

I've already asked them to remove me from their lists... don't know how many times. And they send follow-up emails like this!?! Do they really think *this* works? š¤
