Tyler Benfield

I'm stoked to chat with my friends @tdesseyn.bsky.social and @jasontorres.bsky.social tomorrow and share my advice on acing your interviews. I hope you'll join us!

I didn't realize the beta build was already available! Just installed it 🤩

🥳 My daily driver is Windows ARM if you want some additional Yaak testing

I'd be happy to talk about building Prisma Postgres!

I'm sure @mhartington.io would have an awesome chat about Prisma 7 and the future of the Prisma ORM too

I'm definitely going to do this too! This is such a great idea

🥳 Looking forward to seeing you Mark!

That was a great trip to SF filled with networking and possibly the best sandwich I've ever had. Now I'm home for a few days before heading to Toronto for Remix Jam 💿🇨🇦 and then to Raleigh for @allthingsopen.bsky.social!

Landed in SF and I've never seen so many billboards for software companies. I honestly thought it was just a meme

Landing in SLC for UtahJS tomorrow!

I'm heading home from my first @kcdc.bsky.social and can't wait for next year. Such an incredibly welcoming city and community. Thank you all for making this week awesome 🙏🏻

All Things Open 2025 speaker announcement. The heading says "I'm speaking at ATO 2025!" with a subtitle of "Join me & thousands of technologists for year lucky #13 of All Things Open!". Below the heading is an astronaut surrounded by symbols of luck. To the left is the All Things Open logo with the dates October 12-14, location Raleigh, NC USA, and a "Register Today" call to action.

I'm thrilled to be speaking at @allthingsopen.bsky.social this year!

If you've heard me talk about conferences, you've heard of ATO. I've met so many friends from attending ATO events. 2025 is going to be great and I'm excited to be part of it!

🎉 awesome! I'll be there too. Looking forward to catching up!

This is great! I've been adding emojis to my environment names 😅

This is great advice and they genuinely want to meet you too.

and Taylor should be the first name on your list

Garden update since it's been a while.

Garlic was just harvested over the weekend. Blueberries are almost ready. Tomato plants are enjoying the cooler start this summer while the peppers are a bit behind. Okra, cucumbers, and beans are coming along too.

I'm on Android and I'm also team small phone. If Palm would make a refresh with modern specs I'd buy it immediately

I do this for every trip out of paranoia that the one time I don't will be when everything is working against me. I'd rather be early and bored than late and stressed 😆

If you're buying lawn equipment, go all in on electric ⚡ Get a straight shaft string trimmer that can accept attachments and you'll be able to add some new tools later with less $ and space

This looks awesome! Great job!

This was a casual conversation at Remix Conf for me

I'm rooting for you 💪🏻

What bumps did you hit? I've been coding in WSL since it first released and love it. I'm typically doing JS/TS, Rust, and Go though

Ok this is the first app I've seen that makes me reconsider YNAB. Do you know of any features it's missing? May be doing some reading later...
