Okay, wtf Apple. Why is ⅓ of the Reminders widget is wasted space?? Also, why tf are there footgun tickboxes on the widget that dismiss the item. I just want to read it 🤬

Today's spark of joy

We appreciate your patience and understanding as we work to deliver a secure and reliable release. Updates are now available for the 25.x, 24.x, 22.x, 20.x Node.js release lines to address: - 3 high severity issues - 4 medium severity issues - 1 low severity issue nodejs.org/en/blog/vuln...

The heavy snowfall at AMS right now. Visibility is barely 100 km 😮

The OXC folks are 🔥 I reported a bug and it was patched before my tea brewed (not a joke).

I’ve been playing with module loaders and node sea recently. Anthropic supposedly bought bun because of the ease of application bundling. Now the same is easily achievable with node.js using www.npmjs.com/package/@pip... Applications bundled and runnable directly from zip-archives or SEAs.

💡 TIL: You can highlight a JS template tag as another language by prepending it with a comment like /* html */ in at least VS Code and editors wrapping it like Cursor. How did I find out? Cursor suggested it when I tried to do a more convoluted const html = String.raw; const template = html`…

GitHub should add a 2025 recap, with things like: "Angriest commit message" "How often you added a separate commit just to fix linting" "Number of curse words added to the codebase" "What file caused the most bug reports" "Number of abandoned side projects"

I'm sure many of you have already been trying out the native preview, but if you haven't, now is the best time to start!

I'm <center> years old 🧟‍♂️

Uh, what da fuck EU “[The changes] allow AI companies to legally use personal data to train AI models”

Hell yes

My god, Google Workspace Admin portal is a masterclass in "don't".

LF Europe joined dozens of other orgs calling for an EU Sovereign Tech Fund. Through investment in #OpenSource sustainability, Europe can promote strategic autonomy, prevent future crises, & reduce strategic dependencies. Now is the time to act: openforumeurope.org/openforum-eu...

Nice performance benchmark on optional chaining by Matteo Collina and Simone Sanfratello on the nodeland newsletter:

Don't [...spread] or .split() your strings! Use Intl.Segmenter API. Available in every JS runtime

Node.js 25 is here! We have upgraded V8 to 14.1, bringing major JSON.stringify performance improvements and JIT pipeline optimizations. This release introduces the permission model --allow-net, Web Storage is enabled by default, and more! nodejs.org/en/blog/rele...

@jensimmons.bsky.social any chance the Shape Detection API (BarcodeDetector) will be fixed any time soon in iOS Safari?

performance.now() is coming! Every byte shipped carries a carbon cost. @inesakrap.bsky.social will present insights from the Sustainable Web Guidelines that result in a site that is not only fast, but also green and responsible. perfnow.nl/speakers.html#ines

OpenJS 🤝 Codemod Node.js migrations just got way easier. We're partnering with Codemod to help developers update apps faster, safer, and with less manual hassle. 🔗 hubs.la/Q03KHF260

Here's a quick and efficient way to remove `autoplay` from videos if the user prefers reduced motion codepen.io/jaffathecake... `animationstart` is one of my favourite hacks for monitoring elements appearing in the DOM.

We're launching a GoFundMe to cover legal fees to #FreeJavaScript trademark from Oracle. We need to raise $200k to make full use of the discovery phase in the trademark cancelation petition. This is a critical step in protecting the JavaScript name for the whole community. 👉 javascript.tm

🧵 It's 3 AM. Your app is making the same API calls thousands of times. Rate limits are hitting. Timeouts everywhere. Your makeshift Map() cache is eating all your RAM. There's a better way. Let me show you how we got 550x faster responses with undici-cache-redis 👇

Trying some new oxlint optimizations. This PR has gone over several iterations in the last few months and the core idea is simple: don't run rules for files if they don't apply (using an AST node bitset lookup). The result: linting is around 15% faster in practice.

Quick, someone fork github before it goes to shit

Holy shit, wut

Create a larger, invisible hit area around the element, making it easier to click without layout shift! How? Use a pseudo element with `position: absolute` + `inset: -{value}px` Demo to play with: codepen.io/una/pen/gbaWdmy (Tip from dmytro on X, who I can't find on Bsky: x.com/pqoqubbw/sta...)

Friends in the 6, sorry you have the misfortune to live in Toronto, but there is a Ruy of hope: some great people are looking for a new teammate 😁

We're looking for a Senior Backend Engineer to join our team at @vlt.sh based here in Toronto 🇨🇦 at our HQ. If you love JavaScript & open source this may be right up your alley. Please share if you know anyone who would be a great fit. www.linkedin.com/posts/darcyc... #javascript #nodejs #packages

oxlint + tsgolint = no slow down! no-floating-promises completes 4.4k files in 3.2 seconds, in the vscode repo. typescript-go is the future, all credits to the ts-go team! We just glued everything together 😀 github.com/microsoft/ty...

Add `"editor.codeActionsOnSave": { "source.removeUnusedImports": "always" }` to settings.json!

Proud to march with the NHS at #LondonPride this past weekend, and elated to see the kilometre-long wave of 🏳️‍⚧️ support and fanfare reception from the crowd.

This is a complex layout taking advantage of parallel routes, routing transitions, and aggressive caching to be incredibly fast, performant, and fluid. A beautiful blend of server and client functionality. This would not be wholly possible without React Server Components & next.js. relisten.net

As I walked by this public building, I noticed other than being a celebration, this decor signals explicitly to outsiders (e.g. tourists) that the marginalized groups are welcomed here. It might be obvious for the community here, but less certain for an outsider especially in a changing climate.

Today marks the first illegal Budapest Pride march 🏳️‍🌈 🇭🇺 Just a reminder how brittle democracy can be, despite the citizens becoming more inclusive over time. Evil triumphs when the good do nothing…
