I used to do this - especially with t-shirts at stake - but since last year I'm not as bothered 🤷🏽‍♂️

Now I try and raise PRs when I can, otherwise I'll forget about them 🙃

Stop defining "developer experience" as "the inner loop while I'm writing code after spending an hour installing node_modules". Setup time is "developer experience". Upgrade toil is "developer experience". Memoise-everything-after-weeks-debugging-stray-rerender toil is "developer experience". Belated, frantic code splitting side quests are "developer experience".

Would love to hear about this 💜 as someone who does something somewhat similar, somewhat passively (publicly sharing my salary history), I can attest to how important it is to chat about it with your friends and colleagues and work to get better 🙌🏽

I don't know if I ever will stand up and talk about this practice in public, because it's a somewhat terrifying idea to imagine all the potential backlash or judgment idk, but if I did and everyone agreed, there is a GREAT talk I've imagined: "The Salary Ring." I'd describe these couple of years in my life when several of us joined together to support each other learning to negotiate, doing group market research, workshopping what we'd say in toxic situations together.

Also, if you're like me, and were raised to scoff at people who needed to hire cleaning services as it is a "rich lazy" person thing, I urge you to absolutely let go of that. The last two years I've been incredibly burnt out both from work and from, idk, probably 39 years of undiagnosed autism. If you can pay for an accommodation like this to help give yourself some space to breathe, do it.

They can be useful, but at least my OSS doesn't need them much. I've got some work bits that do have Musts for convenience either in func main or as you say, in tests

I'd say that adding a separate /x/ or /exp/ package can also be a good way of testing out new things - very clearly a separate "experimental" thing, which can be tested independently

Using a fork of the module is also a good suggestion and a way to make sure it's not even in the main repo, but gives you mostly the same codebase to be able to test things

My no-nuance take on the recent discourse: I am not less than the other people in the IndieWeb community for not having a fancy, automated, cool setup on my personal website. Nobody has ever made me feel that way. It doesn't matter if all you have is a simple page with your name and email. If there is one place where you can do whatever you want and how you want is your personal website. I'm lucky to have found a community that supports this.

Contributing to open source is a privilege. It doesn't mean you have cheated to do it or that you don't deserve praise for doing it! It only means that not everyone can do it. You need the skills, time and will to do it in addition to doing whatever you need to have a good life. Not everyone has that time. Not everyone works in the field. We must acknowledge it to meaningfully convey the value of open source in society. #opensource #privilege
