Episode notes

Use GitHub actions to do all of the stuff for you. Big right X that says, hey, this thing isn't good enough is way better than you having to go in there and leave a comment. Jeff Nis gave us a pronunciation guide. Leera: Is there a place where I can search through all the sick pics we've ever had? We have four-slash syntax which is common but doesn't pull up those things if you don't know exactly what to type.

In this potluck episode of Syntax, Wes and Scott answer your questions about not becoming dependent on Copilot, CSS variable limitations, finding Sick Picks, lodash hate, and more!
