    A couple of things that always bring me joy are:

    The "you can do this with Javascript" person on a CSS thread. It's like someone going to a thread about speaking French and saying "you can say this in Spanish".

    When a podcast DJ plays an album at the wrong speed, fixes the speed, and leaves it on the recording. It is a signal to me that this is a show that I need to keep listening to.

    I wasn't expecting to be so happy from an iOS update but this last one fixes something huge for me. Before the update everytime my partner or bandmate or friend sent me a message, Siri would say...

    "So-and-so sent you a message that I can't read"

    Yesterday after the update, Siri read all the Japanese messages in Japanese. It was such a relief. All that info that I usually had to pull the phone out to read was "magically" in my ear.

    You don't notice a lot of updates but when they get around to one that affect you, it feels amazing.
