A DELECTABLE SERVING OF TASTY CLICKS, HOT TAKES, NUGGETS AND OTHER JUICY TREATS!

A Tasty Treats Podcast
for Web Developers.

ISSUE #12:

Emojis in your UI make it feel cheap 😬. Surf the Web like it’s 1999. "We’d go back and choose Remix if we could”. An upcoming episode with Jen Simmons where we talk about Safari (ofc). And update on the Syntax Crew. Oh, and a SYNTAX VIDEO PODCAST?!

Syntax Crew Update:

"Chris, can you cut that part out?"
As part of our transition to move our podcast editing and producing in-house, we bid a fond farewell to Chris Enns. It was an honor to have such an incredible talent as our Editor for over two years, consistently making us sound more articulate than we might actually be. Chris edited and published 315 episodes for us! Check out his work and hire him for all your podcast editing needs.

New Senior Podcast Producer: Randy Rektor!
Randy is joining the team to work on everything related to audio and video, including the launch of our video podcast. Randy is super talented, which is wildly apparent in his work. You can check him out on YouTube where he shares pro-audio reviews, music production tips, the latest in tech, and more.

🔥 164 applicants for every open Software Engineering role!?

Gergely Orosz

@GergelyOrosz

What if I told you this is how roughly how many applicants are applying for one open position for a company employing people hybrid (so you need to come in a few days/week to the office), in a city in AR, USA.

Well-known companies and full-remote positions likely see much more.

🔥 Do we reallllly need client side js beyond interacting with the server?

Scott Tolinski - Syntax.fm

@stolinski

After sincerely trying HTMX I'm left with the vision of seeing most interfaces I use and wondering if they reallllly need client side js beyond interacting with the server.
