Want to make it super clear: I did NOT come up with Hooks. We have a list of prior art and credits in the FAQ. https://reactjs.org/docs/hooks-faq.html#what-is-the-prior-art-for-hooks

I love all the extremely work-friendly coffee shops in Taipei. Some of them feel like full-on coworking spaces. Minus the membership fees and boring office interior, of course.
Also, it's completely normal to find multiple redundant wifi networks in coffee shops, sometimes with 100 Mb/s downstream and 50 Mb/s up.

Silky smooth roads in the mountains North of Taipei. I think I didn't see a single pot hole on my entire ride. Also, plenty of mirrors to see what's happening around sharp corners. Perfect cycling conditions really. #TaiwanLog

Upgraded Airbnb's server side @reactjs@twitter.com renderer to @nodejs@twitter.com v8.9 from v6.11 🚀
Avg server response time fell 32%, P95 fell 50%, but P99 doubled (seemingly due to slow gcs). Boot-up time improved 30%. Adds to our React 16 wins https://twitter.com/lencioni/status/938134231900753921 🎉 #webperf

Code, conferences and noodle soup - a summary of how I spent 2017 doing devrel in UTC+5 and above.

If you watch the “white helmet”, I remember there is one who spoke about the two roles he was thinking to choose: one is fighting at the frontline, the other one is doing the humanitarian work in the background. things are not just one way, both are needed.
I just tried to start this move recently: whenever I see someone is doing something good to others, I will give them a thumbs up 👍 literally. e.g. give up seat to others, helping people to open door.
I just had this convo w someone in the meetup, around digital security: if we want to be just pessimistic about the situation, we might ended up hopeless and not constructive.. but if there are still something motivating and importantly helpful, even some potential improvements, then maybe it's not too bad? Idk, seems like some of these things covers many dimensions and complicated in its nature..
Checking out crypto talks @wire@twitter.com today. I was actually curious because of their haskell code. #til its ios/android protocol code is in rust (at @Wire HQ in Berlin) https://www.swarmapp.com/c/c5ffgKZfzrN
