Some new JavaScript rpc goodness for you to play with: blog.cloudflare.com/capnweb-java... It's not just for Workers.

ECMAScript excitement 😉 Next week's TC39 meeting has a packed agenda: 🔼 Amount 🔼 Array.prototype.pushAll 🔶 AsyncContext 🔶 Await Dictionary 🔼 Import Bytes 🔶 Intl Era Month Code 🔼 Iterator Chunking 🔶 new Global() 🔼 Non-extensible applies to private 🔼 Promise Adoption 🔼 Promise Predicate 🔶 Temporal

As one of the tech workers from the US.... I'd say this ranks right up there with the stupidest policy decisions ever... Except for literally every other single policy decision this Dumbass Regime has made.

So very excited to share this news

Can someone please go back in time and stop Biff... err I mean Donny... from getting the sports almanac from the future?

Did you know there are now 5 full time @cloudflare.social employees actively contributing to Node.js? (Plus a summer intern).

Ah, the joys of the fall. Every September 1st is the start of dove hunting season in California. So starting every September 1st, every morning for a few weeks we get to listen to the sounds of shotguns going off for about an hour and a half... Every. Day. The dogs aren't fans.

Well deserved, I'd say.

ICE is not law enforcement. They are a state-sponsored human trafficking and extortion racket.

After several months of work, the node:fs APIs in Cloudflare workers are finally ready to ship

ICE Is not law enforcement. ICE is inhumane scum.

I can name several.

Question: when you have six dogs that alert you to the fact there's a garter snake on your bathroom counter, how do you get the snake safely out of the house? Answer: Chaotically.

The @nodejs.org website team put together a fantastic new page outlining the support options for EOL release lines nodejs.org/en/eol Did you know that there are paid support options available if you need it for no longer maintained Node.js versions? A portion of those funds come back to the project

So many great things happening right now in @cloudflare.social Workers.... Coming within weeks will be node:fs, node:http, and node:process improvements, we're experimenting with integrated typescript support in the runtime itself, might be enabling dynamic eval soon, wasm/rust improvements, ...

Let's see .. how about a little experiment involving direct support for typescript erasable syntax in workerd. This is not expected to be enabled in production anytime soon (or necessarily at all)... Just experimenting with possibilities. github.com/cloudflare/w...

I'm going to be speaking at JSConf US in October ⭐️ jsconf2025.sched.com/event/26Ubg

@isaacs.bsky.social thought you might get a kick out of this: github.com/cloudflare/w... graceful-fs unmodified working in workers. Not yet enabled for production but very close

Time flies when you're creating\b\b\b\b\b\b\b\b fixing bugs. Today marks my 4 year anniversary at @cloudflare.social

Today in Proud Dad moments... Sitting here at the @cloudflare.social office in San Francisco working alongside my son. He's busy helping make improvements to the Containers product while I'm trying to avoid breaking Workers.

Got quic in Node.js making progress again now that openssl 3.5 has landed, and finished another chapter in the book. Productive weekend. github.com/nodejs/node/...

🧵⚠️ PSA for @nodejs.org developers: be careful with setImmediate() for CPU-intensive work. A minor libuv optimization exposed how many apps accidentally depended on implicit timing behaviors they didn't even know existed. Here's why this is a crucial lesson 👇

PSA.. the @nodejs.org TSC just had a leadership vote. @nodeland.dev is the new TSC chair. @ruyadorno.com and I will be serving as the Co-Vice Chairs.

And, for Workers + Rust enthusiasts out here: WASI with filesystem bindings is coming (hopefully) shortly after!

ECMAScript excitement 😉 Congrats to Dan Minor @mozilla.org on advancing the Upsert proposal to Stage 3 at TC39 this week 🎉 let map = new Map(); map.getOrInsert(key, defaultVal); It lets you set a default value on a map key without overwriting an existing value 👍

ECMAScript excitement 😉 Congrats to @bakkot.com on advancing Math.sumPrecise to Stage 4 at TC39 this week 🎉 let vals = [1e20, 0.1, -1e20]; Math.sumPrecise(vals); //👉 0.1 It lets you calculate the sum of an array of numbers. Manual addition in a loop can lose precision - use this API instead.

The (Star Trek themed) vibe I bring to the party:

If anyone ever wonders what kind of humor I enjoy most. It's this. Definitely this.

The more I end up having to review AI generated code the more I really dislike reviewing AI generated code. At least it's fairly easy to spot.

Just don't come to the US for the time being. You're not missing anything... well, except for the opportunity to be kidnapped and shipped to a concentration camp.

Some things that will (fairly soon) Just Work in Cloudflare Workers: import { readFileSync } from 'node:fs'; readFileSync('/bundle/config'); const r = await navigator.storage.getDirectory(); const tmp = await r.getDirectoryHandle('tmp'); const file = await tmp.getFileHandle('foo',{create:true});

ICE Is a terrorist organization.

The @nodejs.org website team (including my son!) has been working on a redesign of the API docs github.com/nodejs/node/...

These aren't "arrests", these are kidnappings.

PSA: The node:http get and request methods will soon be available for use on Cloudflare Workers with nodejs_compat mode github.com/cloudflare/w...

PSA: Node.js is about to get an impl of the Web Locks API built in github.com/nodejs/node/...

What's that you say? Cloudflare Workers might be soon gaining the ability to run express and fastify apps directly? That would be crazy!! Stay tuned ;-) github.com/cloudflare/w...

On July 14th, 2025, Cloudflare made a change to our service topologies that caused an outage for 1.1.1.1 on the edge, resulting in downtime for 62 minutes for customers using the 1.1.1.1 public DNS Resolver as well as intermittent degradation of service for Gateway DNS.

ICE Is not law enforcement. ICE is State sponsored terrorism.

Good. ICE thugs should have miserable lives.

Same
