It is with profound sorrow and eternal gratitude that we wish a grand farewell to our dear friend Robert Weir. Bob was always full of restless hope and a burning desire to do good in this world. He once said that his success was due to the ever-present sense of adventure that was the very heart of his music and that the hearts of his audience resonated with the same rhythms. His adventure will continue on with all those he inspired over his incredible life. We know the big reunion on the other side will be felt as a surge of joy in the cosmos. And we hope everyone joins us in a big wolf howl farewell for our @BobWeir. Thank you for the amazing ride. Sincere condolences to Bob’s beautiful wife Natascha and his lovely daughters, Chloe and Monet. We love you so much and are pleased to have grown close over the years despite life on the road. We honor this cosmic entanglement within the band and all of those around us; we love you. Love and joy to everyone, The Garcia Family 📷 Adrian Boot / Retro Photo Archive | Rosie McGee | Herb Greene | Peter Simon

For today’s “Hidden Hero”, I want to highlight someone who took everyday config pain and turned it into a simple, de facto standard in many stacks. He didn’t invent environment variables, but if loading your project’s config is as easy as dropping a .env file in the root today, you can thank @motdotla (Scott Motte) and the dotenv library for popularizing that workflow. It’s a simple tool that fundamentally changed how millions of us, including me, manage secrets securely in development. Thank you for setting the standard! 🫡 #OpenSource #DevCommunity

I can understand engineers who use Linux. I can understand engineers who use macOS. I really don’t understand engineers who use Windows (except windows app developers). By understand I mean I can see the value system they operate under. It just seems bad for non-Windows dev work

If more developers ran Linux on their desktop, maybe they wouldn't be so petrified of running a server by themselves. We are unlearning the basics of the Internet at an alarming rate.

My father-in-law is a builder. He is insanely gifted. We were looking at a pre-iOS 7 app together years ago and I asked him what it would cost to build it today. I will never forget his answer… "We can’t, we don’t know how to do it."
