WIP
Great example of an interesting post that has just an equally wholesome and informative reply section 🙌 https://xcancel.com/neuranne/status/1756602062865932429
The floating notes in @raycastapp are becoming my favorite feature of this otherwise already great app.
Map it to a shortcut (⌥ + ⇧ + Q for me) and you can write things down and forget about them without losing focus.
Feels like a better braindump.txt
Seeing this also makes me more confident in my decision of learning @laravelphp.
For years, my TL was full of praisings for JS metaframeworks but in the last couple of months, I've definitely seen a shift.
First non-fiction read of 2024 ☑️
Reading about a more utopian vision of the future definitely makes me more optimistic that humanity can solve some of its biggest challenges in the near(ish) future.
English title is “Utopia for Realists”.
Been enjoying tinkering with @laravelphp lately, feels like a breath of fresh air coming from js-metaframework-land.
TIL – seems like a great CSS property to solve z-index hell. https://xcancel.com/devongovett/status/1749858152072249823
Currently helping @cedric_design with some advanced code overrides for the new Dark platform.
Working with custom code in @framer always makes me better at understanding the nitty-gritty details of React that I wouldn't have learned otherwise.
Love it!

Since everyone is currently sharing their @code setups, here's mine.
Always a wip and heavily inspired by some of the setups I saw earlier this week.
Might create my own theme on day though 🤔
Handy @webflow tip to apply custom CSS only on the published site, not in the editor.
Place this attribute selector before the regular one: [data-wf-domain].
Useful if you have elements, that are moved out of view/blurred/… per default.
TIL, that there is a vector-effect property for SVGs.
It allows you to specify whether or not the stroke width is dependent on transformations applied to the SVG.

Minimal apps ftw! https://xcancel.com/raffichill/status/1726284792478761335
Started with lecture 3 – Algorithms
Back from Seoul, which means I have time to continue with CS50 🥳
Really enjoying learning about the more theoretical aspects of cs. E.g. I've heard of “Big O notation” before, but now I know what it actually means.
I think I just found the fluid typo tool of my dreams. This kind of thing was always on my “want-to-build”-list, but apparently, it already exists 🙌

Problem set 2 done.
After a little break, I finally completed pset 2.
After Readability, I chose Wordle and it was pretty challenging. I'd say not as much as last week's problem due to the boilerplate code, but nonetheless very tricky.

“We already need more ephemerality within our digital lives… and we certainly don’t need more permanence seeping into our physical lives”
Couldn't have said it better! https://xcancel.com/julesterpak/status/1708960769885295076

Finished lecture 2 – Arrays
Things are ramping up a bit, but still very comprehensible and interesting. It was really satisfying to see, how the puzzle pieces began to click together towards the end of the lecture.
Curious, what the problem sets are about 👀

Continued with lecture 2 – Arrays
Most disappointing thing was to learn that arrays in C don't have a length property like in essentially every other language.
Well… I guess this makes me modern languages even more – once again 🙃
Started with lecture 2 – Arrays
Learned more technical things about compiling and debugging. Plus also added a rubber duck to my shopping list 🦆
A hot new inspo website just dropped 🔥 https://xcancel.com/cedric_design/status/1705250722311524353
Problem set 1 done.
The Mario exercise was pretty straightforward, but the credit card one took me way longer than expected.
Mainly due to all the things that C doesn't do out of the box and I had to code myself.
But the feeling when seeing this console is 10/10!

It's always a pleasure when a framework provides such a good extension for VS Code.
Just discovered this menu, kudos to @sveltejs 🙌
Finished lecture 1 – C
This last part was really interesting because it involved some CS history and the problems with integer overflow.
This showed me once again, that when writing code, you should do so responsibly.
Now onto the Mario problem set 🙌
