ChatGPT recommend me this podcast :)
😊😊😊
Pretty nice episode 👨💻👨💻👨💻
768 is in bootstrap
aww I so much regret choosing @vuejs over @react back 2 years ago. ☹
don't need to translate hex to decimal, just remember the closer to f it is, the closer to 255 it is. So if it is 88 it is close to 125.
so what do you use if not bootstrap and font awesome?
when I'm listening to these guests I always think these apps should have a home page for dummies, where they explain what this is about and who is their target group. I listen for an hour and have no clue what they are talking about.
great show an I like his books as well!
you misspelled his name.
huh? Wes has a bot to filter and respond questions about ide? 🤣
21:47 what? thanks for doing a good job? forget it.
I must say your grammar has no issues. If we'd take out "y'know", "I mean", "yeah", "it's like" from shoptalkshow, their episode would be 75% shorter. 😁
Thanks for sharing.I found a lot of interesting information here https://blog.exporthub.com/

I've worked on some of the dynamic content for Legoland. ☺
I wonder how to work with a milennial senior manager who has a 10 second attention span, eve when she is supporting s junior in solving a problem. She tends to say a sentence then turn onto some other problem.
