Today in “way too large box for tiny thing”. This time it’s a Siemens oven replacement part

RFI (same company that has the swear comments in their JS files) also knows that between 1 July and 31 August 2104 (yes, not a mistake, at least not mine) the bus won't stop in Ginosa. Sorry to all the people in 78 years that will be impacted!

Looking at the PUBLIC JS files for the departure boards from RFI (the 100% public company that maintains the track and station infrastructure) shows it was written by someone from Genoa "Belin che cavolo" = "WTF", but only in Liguria Also, the body here is entirely commented out!

These are the same people that keep telling the EU that ticketing and real time data is a solved problem and making the data public is not necessary because people can just use their apps

A thread 🧵 of _terrible_ design decisions for the internal APIs of the two Italian high speed train operators, Italo and Trenitalia. Hardcoded passwords, terrible translations, spelling mistakes, xml in json (but utf8 encoded and transmitted as an array of numbers), it's all here. Enjoy!

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. 🎉

I am very proud of the team for the runtime level mitigation we rolled out to @deno_land Deploy for this. It's very precise, very fast, and way less prone to false positives than the WAF based block. All versions of React are safe now when running on Deno Deploy - yay to vertical integration!

I'm looking for some @angular.dev, @svelte.dev, and @react.dev developers to try out some localization tools that 8 students at @unibergen.bsky.social have been developing, using Message Format 2 (the cutting edge new @unicode.org localization system). If you have a spare 15 minutes to try, DM me!

Update

It’s very funny honestly. No programming for a week for me I guess

Just finished a giant infra migration for Deno Deploy - if you've seen any connectivity issues over the past week, sorry about that. We're all done now and do not anticipate any more issues.

Under this thread you see that it’s not just the CEO of Vercel that supports genocide, it’s a culture thing that proliferates thru others in the company too. I really hope everyone who opposes this can get out of there. If you need help finding a different job, please reach out to me.

I sued three different European rail companies today, in two separate cases. One case is for violations of my rail passenger rights in case of disruption, and the other one for overcharging me on a trip (and then refusing to refund me what they overcharged me). Fun times ahead 😌

I’d love to see the Google Maps code that implements the rendering of highways as single single strokes instead of double stroke when zoomed out (but only in countries driving on the left). Very curious 👀

A good portion of the Deno engineering team are stuck in an elevator in an empty building in Rotterdam

Stuck in an elevator with @snek.dev, @littledivy.com, @bartlomieju.bsky.social, @magurotuna.bsky.social, @dsherret.bsky.social, @kettmeir.dev, and Nathan

Databases, meet the new Database Explorer. Available now in Early Access deno.com/deploy

Do I know anyone who works on Google Safe Browsing? The entirety of one of our PSL'd domains has been incorrectly flagged again

After moving to a country where ice cream is generally bad and super expensive... We finally got an ice cream machine! (raspberries :))

Today on SNCF TGV INOUI 9246: In French 🇫🇷: 1 hour delay due to an electrical failure on the LGV, trains are being diverted over the classic line In Italian 🇮🇹: 1 hour delay due to strong rain In English 🇬🇧: 1 hour delay due to, eemmm, hard, eeeem, and, eeeem, strong, eeeeem, storm

We’re cooking 🧑‍🍳

chrome render process crash in stable issues.chromium.org/issues/43307...

We want it to be easier to manage connections to cloud services like AWS and GCP ...so we've added Cloud Connections to Deno Deploy. deno.com/deploy

Drew the fucking jackpot today: dealing with AT&T technical support AND public cloud technical support If anyone that follows me knows anyone who works at Google NOC or AT&T NOC that please please please reach out to first name @ deno dot com

a colleague of mine just said "wow you wrote tests, absolute cringe". i don't know if i will ever recover

The tests ran in under 3 minutes. The docker job, meanwhile, has seen empires rise and fall.

The upcoming Deno Deploy upgrade (now in Early Access) has the control over environment variables and secrets you've been asking for. Opt in to try it out now. With more features landing each week, it's worth watching the change log docs.deno.com/deploy/early...

So. Much. Stuff. Coming

I'm at the @webengineshackfest.org and in 35 minutes (11 CEST) I'll be giving, together with @lcas.dev, a talk on WinterTC. You can catch the livestream on Youtube: www.youtube.com/watch?v=De4n...

My boyfriend just went to a restaurant bathroom and then called me to ask how to turn the tap off. AMA

Thank you Austria for saving the day ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

curious about what each engineer is working on? let's find out!

It's nearly summer in @deno.land

lol the digitalocean "tutorial" for running postgres on k8s recommends setting up postgres by creating a 3 replica deployment that attaches r/w to the same volume from every pod. the postgres pods do not know about each other. ai slop written to corrupt your data.

Traveling 7.5 hours on Europe‘s best high speed train today: the ICE 3neo. Quiet, comfortable, looks absolutely fantastic, and has a great onboard restaurant. The only other two high-speed trains that gets close in comfort is the Stadler Smile (SBB Giruno) and ETR 1000 (Frecciarossa 1000).

You can now add JSR packages with @yarnpkg.dev and @pnpm.io with `jsr:` specifier deno.com/blog/add-jsr...

It’s so fun when Google publicly documents their antitrust violations. Surely of interest to @ec.europa.eu. Google is making the case for taking Chrome away from them by themselves now. This shows preferential treatment of Google Ads, YouTube, Recaptcha, Google Maps, and Google Analytics. 💀

people complain that JS numbers are weird but forget that python has this behavior eval("500") is 500 False

10 minutes early in Cologne today. Danke @bahn.de 😀

JSConf NA is in the middle of nowhere... I don't believe this is malicious, but this is exactly how you discourage folks from attending that are not on a big company budget. That doesn't seem so great for open source. 1.5-2.5 hours drive from any major airport...

The saga continues

One of the true markers of a civilized city: it's at least as fast, if not faster, to get from the airport to downtown via transit.

This is why no one likes you, AWS.

Coming into Vancouver, BC station right now with the Amtrak Cascades: “As we arrive in Vancouver, you will notice that we will start and stop a few times. This is because the conductor will have to get off the train multiple times to manually throw the switches ahead.” It’s 2025 folks. 2025. 🤯🤯🤯

OpenTelemetry in Deno! Please try it out an let us know what you think. I think it's a game changer. Docs: docs.deno.com/runtime/fund...

crash your chrome 134 (beta) or chrome 135 (canary) in one easy click: crash-chrome.deno.dev but hey, this means we're getting explicit resource management very soon now 🎉 👏 🎉 👏 🎉 👏 🎉 👏 🎉

Next week TC39 will meet in Seattle to discuss new JavaScript language features 🎉 Please join us on Thursday 20th Feb at Docusign for a free @seattlejs.com community event featuring Linus Groh @ptomato.name @nicr.dev @ashley-c.bsky.social @lcas.dev @mhofman.bsky.social lu.ma/s97y24jd

Did some work on the url Rust crate the past two days and got it parsing a 400 character URL more than twice as fast (still have a few PRs not merged).

The next version of Deno will have a super fast JS/TS plugin API for the linter 🎉 Watch @lcas.dev write a lint rule to ban string literals in <60 seconds. This, plus many other goodies, to land next week with Deno 2.2.

Over the past few months, we've made several improvements to our documentation: 🗂️ better organized examples 📸 video tutorials 💻 more documentation in API reference and much more — deno.com/blog/docs-up...
