I had a pretty productive week including 12 consecutive laps at this week's swimming lesson! Alright, enough pool talk. Another week, another newsletter. Let's get to it!

Around the Web

• I really enjoyed this read from my good friend @bekahhw. Some might think it’s a bit spicy, but I think she is bang on in terms of the current job climate. Check out
  

  Hiring, Firing, and Becoming Indispensable

• I got early access to typehero and I have to say I'm really impressed. Great work on this Trash and team! If you're looking to up your TypeScript game, this might be for you. Also, typehero is open source, so this could be a double whammy in terms of learning.
• This video from Jack Herrington digs into the Lego concept with RSCs and data fetching, building off Sam Selikoff's Next.js Conf 2023 talk. His videos are so good and this one does not disappoint.
• Netlify has been on a roll with platform primitives. Blob storage and an image CDN both dropped this week, currently in beta.

Fun Stuff

This was something super fun and potentially super practical I came across this week. tldraw release a draw a mockup and convert it to a real webpage. 🤯 Check out makereal.tldraw.com

Shameless Plugs

One of my recent blog posts, TypeScript and React: Enforcing Props for Accessibility made it in the top 7 posts of the week on dev.to!

My latest post about the GitHub CLI is out! Maybe you'll find it helpful.

Boost productivity with the GitHub CLI

This week, I got to hang with Lizzie Seigle on my Twitch stream. We built out an app that acts like a magic eight-ball called Turkey Time since it's American Thanksgiving soon. We ran into some snags, but we were able to get it working by the end of the stream.

Thanks again for hanging, Lizzie!

This coming week, I’m hanging with Santosh Yadav (@santoshyadavdev). We’re going to discuss all things Angular. Come hang with us on Monday, November 20th at 5 pm UTC.

Lastly, I started working in the open this week, since all my work at OpenSauced is open source. If you want to come hang, I’m streaming during the mornings, typically around 2pm UTC. Give a follow on Twitch to know when I go live!

Jobs

• Cloudinary is looking to hire a Lead Developer Experience Engineer
• Not a job, but remote.com just launched Remote Talent, a remote talent job board.

I post jobs in the iamdeveloper.com community, plus all other kinds of content, as do others. If you're looking for another friendly nook of the internet, head to discord.iamdeveloper.com.

That's a wrap! Until the next one.
