My github wrapped for the year... git-wrapped.com/profiles/jas...

Fun fact. My first "enterprise" app... And the thing that got me started in my career, was a document management system written in Excel, where the forms were all digitized copies created as excel sheets, for the casino I worked at as a graveyard shift security dispatcher fresh out of highschool.

Way to put absolute minimal effort Random Amazon delivery guy. He pulled up, didn't even get out of the car. Leaned out and dropped the box on the ground and left it there.

If you know what this is, and if you've ever had to get one unjammed before, congratulate me. This was perhaps one of the worst ones I've ever seen. Literally broke three separate pitman pullers before we managed to actually get it broken free. Ultimately required torching, a puller, and a fork...

WinterTC's Minimum Common Web API standard is now officially published as ECMA-429, Edition 1 . To many more editions! Thanks @jasnell.me, @andreubotella.com, @akiro.se, @littledan.dev and everyone else that was involved in making this happen. 🎉

ICE is best when it's crushed.

I, too, enjoy embedding V8 where it doesn't belong...

want to learn the "why" behind all things javascript? javascript in depth by @jasnell.me is written so that newer devs can think & build like vets. it digs into engines, runtimes, & the design choices behind the language. new in MEAP; get 50% off with code snellML through 12/18: hubs.la/Q03W-mVy0

ICE is not law enforcement. ICE is state sponsored terrorism.

Spread the word! 📢 The FATE (Fairness, Accountability, Transparency, and Ethics) group at @msftresearch.bsky.social in NYC is hiring interns and postdocs to start in summer 2026! 🎉 Apply by *December 15* for full consideration.

ok so... I'm writing a book. It's called JavaScript In Depth (www.manning.com/books/javasc...) ... the first four chapters are available by Manning. This has been a difficult project and will continue to be so. The reason is that it isn't a How To book that focuses only on how to use the langauge

The repo for the TypedArray find within tc39 proposal is GitHub.com/tc39/proposa...

Here's the proposal repo... Still very light on detail: GitHub.com/tc39/proposa...

In case you're curious... blog.cloudflare.com/18-november-...

Will be happy to see this one advance

Lots of details to figure out here but it's about time we had an optimized typed array concatenation in the language.

TIL Linus is Woke. I use Linux BTW 🐧 social.kernel.org/notice/AWSXo...

NEW: Epstein survivors release the most powerful PSA I have ever seen. Make this go viral so every member of the House of Representatives sees it.

Pretty much says it all.

This is good. Even better if you're able to do it such that they get the credit they deserve.

Is the bee laden or unladen? And. Critically, it is a European bee or an African bee?

So we found another performance regression in V8... specifically in the code for WriteUtf8V2 (the code to write a string out as UTF8)... the fix is in... and get this... it results in a 4000%+ performance increase in one of the benchmarks. Not a typo... 4000% improvement.

All build tools are equally evil and terrible.

Look some actual heroes standing up to some masked Nazi asshole idiots pretending to be law enforcement.

@rafaelgss.dev any chance y'all could update the v8docs.nodesource.com to include 25.x? Pretty please :-)

Hell yes, Pittsburgh. Love Yinz. No Kings.

So proud of my city. No Kings, Chicago!

Yet again United Airlines lets me down. Ugh.

Unfortunately History is repeating itself

FDJT.

We're celebrating the life of Mikeal, creator of request, forker and reuniter of Node.js, renaissance and family man on November 12. We received a very generous donation and are now able to make this event completely free. Looking forward to see all of you! an-event-mikeal-would-have-liked.com

When MTG becomes the sole voice of reason on the Republican side, you know they've swan dived completely into Looney Land.

Oh, ha, I've been so distracted by jsconf this week I missed that we finally released Sandboxes! Containers on the edge, controllable via Workers. Full Linux environment, capable of running node.js, deno, bun, anything you need really. share.google/Bj7OSMh94AM2...

One step closer to enabling pointer compression by default in node.js thanks to @cloudflare.social and @igalia.com github.com/nodejs/node/...

Congratulations to our Node.js community recipients 💚

I'm excited about net in permissions!

Those benchmarks from @t3.gg revealed some interesting issues in Workers. Happy to say it's all fixed now, save for some lingering next.js-specific stuff we're continuing to work on. Thanks for the reproducible test cases, @t3.gg. Excessive details in blog post: blog.cloudflare.com/unpacking-cl...

We worked on a thing. blog.cloudflare.com/unpacking-cl...

I feel seen.

🚀 BIG NEWS: We just shipped @platformatic/python - run Python ASGI apps INSIDE your Node.js process! This changes everything for AI/ML + Node.js apps 🧵 youtu.be/8eAAP9IF4xA

I once again find myself wishing JavaScript had a native BitField that was ArrayBuffer backed. e.g. const bf = new BitField(10); backed by a two byte ArrayBuffer. bf[0] = true bf[1] = false // Etc bf.buffer; // the underlying ArrayBuffer Really just a special form of TypedArray...

Bluesky runs on open protocols with open source code. Today we’re taking an additional step and making a patent non-aggression pledge to ensure that everyone can build confidently on our work. Learn more and read the pledge in our blog post: bsky.social/about/blog/1...

They aren't heroes if they won't defend the Constitution and the people against what he and his white supremacist cronies are trying to do.

A propos of nothing, it's a completely reasonable thing to not use a company's products, services, and OSS, when their CEO openly supports (and takes selfies with) a world leader who the UN says is currently committing genocide.

It took a couple years for her to build up confidence, but our German shepherd now just casually drops her ball into the water at one side of the pool, runs around the other side, jumps in and swims out to get it. Just entertaining herself. It's not even 8am here yet and she's already at it again.

ICE isn't law enforcement. They are state sponsored terrorists.

Sometime in the past couple of days nodejs/node crossed the 60,000 issues/PRs mark.

It's great to see things shifting back to the principles we were promoting through the mid 2000s while working on RSS, Atom, Activity Streams, and ironically OpenSocial. Those efforts ended up being short circuited by Twitter and Facebook competing to own the walled gardens. We've come full circle.
