Dan MillerHey Seattle Tech Folks! I've been helping to run a "build tools" meetup here. So far this meetup is very informal: simply gathering at a place and chatting, but in the fall we hope to host a meetup with talks. That's partially the purpose of the June meetup: to brainstorm ideas for talks!
We're meeting Wednesday, June 12th at Fremont Brewing, hopefully outside, weather willing. If you're interested please RSVP here so I can make sure we have enough space.

The Radiolab about how they mapped Chinese characters onto a QWERTY keyboard is such a good one

The Wubi Effect — Radiolab
When we think of China today, we think of a technological superpower. From Huawei and 5G to TikTok and viral social media, China is stride for stride with the United States in the world of computing. However, China’s technological renaissance almost didn’t happen. And for one very basic reason: The Chinese language, with its 70,000 plus characters, couldn’t fit on a keyboard. Today, we tell the story of Professor Wang Yongmin, a hard headed computer programmer who solved this puzzle and laid the foundation for the China we know today.

And there's a helpful hint safely testing for cycles by setting a `LIMIT` on the outer query which stops the recursive CTE evaluation after it reaches the limit like...
```
WITH RECURSIVE t(n) AS (
SELECT 1
UNION ALL
SELECT n+1 FROM t
)
SELECT n FROM t **LIMIT 100**;
```
The `UNION` takes care of cycles in a lot of cases, but there are examples of how to handle cycles manually when it doesn't... and again there's built-in cycle detection syntax too.

The docs walk through selecting results in breadth first or depth first order by hand but also theres built-in syntax for it.

Trapped on a plane waiting to take off and reading the #postgres docs. We built half the good stuff in @metaplane with recursive queries (https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/queries-with.html#QUERIES-WITH-RECURSIVE), but there are deeper bits that I didn't know about.
Ken KociendaI get my best results when I design in the work itself. There’s only so much you can do before you try to make the a thing for real.

Is there a better way to debug #typescript errors in #vscode than the mouse over dialog thing? It’s so small and they get so long sometimes 😞
