This is a big win in terms of making reading code more accessible.

TIL Prettier is considering making tabs the default in 3.0. This is huge — it would make an entire set of programming languages more accessible (if you’re somehow still pro-spaces, read this comment to instantly convert), and, more importantly, vindicate my personal preferences https://t.co/qZvGbQCklb pic.twitter.com/MYxY5wYLI3

Words of Wisdom for the Week

Nader dopping the truth bombs

6 things I’ve learned in 10 years as a developer

1. You’re almost never being paid enough
2. You’ll never know everything
3. You can learn anything
4. Empathy & communication > strictly technical skills
5. Specialization is more lucrative than being broad
6. Shipped > perfect

I had a great time hanging with my old co-worker and old stream co-host, Christina Gorton, this week on the stream. We discussed DevRel, OSS, & Scarf, where Christina currently works.
