   @TejasKumar_ @kentcdodds I checked Kernighan’s book “The UNIX Progming Environment” (from 1984, he’s one of the creators of Unix) and it looks like it’s short for “user file system:” archive.org/details/unixprogramminge0000kern/page/64/mode/2up

   @suchipi @kentcdodds Interesting duality — extracting a function limits the things it can depend on, nesting it limits the things that can depend on it.

   @AryanJabbari @dan_abramov But you can do 10000..toLocaleString() (What’s happening is you’re allowed to have a trailing . in number literals so you have to have a second . to indicate that you want to access a property of the number. Yay syntactic ambiguity!)

   @jsngr When you flash the Shuffle with Square’s custom firmware, it lets you accept payments offline. You input prices by dictating into the mic on a pair of EarPods. You then use a standard 3.5mm cable and a web app to sync via a laptop when back online. It has incredible battery life!

6. Cool @github iOS app features: long press • the notifications tab to open the filter options • the explore tab to focus the search bar and open the keyboard

    @stroughtonsmith I recently finished a SwiftUI menu bar app that lets you switch audio outputs with a single click (it works great in combination with AirPods’ automatic device switching): apps.apple.com/us/app/instant-audio-switcher/id1547135481?mt=12

13. I made an @eleven_ty template language extension for JSX! I designed it to resemble React syntax at a high level, but you don’t have to use any client-side JSX and it’s pretty easy to do async processing in your template ✨ npmjs.com/package/eleventy-hast-jsx

    @stroughtonsmith So to still use the == nil syntax and suppress the warning, you could write Optional(UIApplication.shared) == nil. (the isKind(of:) check works because it calls into objc which handles the nil correctly). 6/
