2016/03/05

Today I'm playing with my kids and I'm reminded how important they are in life. I am giving two talks at Fluent Conf next week and doing a live JavaScript Air show and I have a lot to prepare and practice. However today I'm focusing on one of the most important things in my life: my relationship with my children. Don't forget what matters most.

Why I can't do your job for you

3 Minutes with Kent ·

2016/02/23

Got an email asking me to "help" someone by basically doing their job for them. I realize that this crazy world of the web can be a little exhausting with all the tooling and stuff, and I'm really motivated to help people learn. But I just simply don't have the time to help everyone that asks me for help. Here's a little bit on why.

Every weekday I tweet at the hashtag #eggheadADay (https://twitter.com/search?q=%23eggheadADay). I share this with my co-workers and we have a discussion about the lesson of the day.

Last week I gave a workshop (https://github.com/kentcdodds/react-ava-workshop) about using the AVA (https://www.npmjs.com/package/ava) framework to test React (https://facebook.github.io/react/).
