We started using a next branch on git. Is there a way to prevent the branch being removed/deleted when merged to main?

GitLab dropping support for kaniko really bit us in the ass this morning. All builds failing. Now we get to spend the day scrambling to implement podman to build containers in our CI/CD pipelines.

Colorado autumn weather is bonkers. Jumping 15°C in 3 days. Up and down like a rollercoaster 🎢

Beim Abendessen: Ich: „Du hast deinen Kartoffelbrei noch gar nicht angefasst!“ 2 jähriger fasst ganz vorsichtig mit dem Finger auf den Brei - „ich hab ihn angefasst“ 🤡

To honor a great friend and open-source pioneer Mikeal Rogers we're organizing a "conf" and charity auction. I'll be auctioning an exclusive wagyu BBQ at my house for up to 15. Join us and ideally offer more donations! All proceeds go to his wife and 2 kids an-event-mikeal-would-have-liked.com

Should I put an nginx in front of my Node.js services/containers?

Covid and flu shots done ✅ ready for JSConf in ~2 weeks. Not looking forward to tonight. 🤒

I created a list for JSConf NA next month. Super psyched to meet you JS peeps again in person bsky.app/profile/did:...

Got a broken hand from a bike accident last weekend and moved to the guest bedroom so the kids wouldn’t roll over me at night. Asked if I should move back today, little one puts on a serious face: you can’t, it’s not fair if you only have one arm to cuddle! 🥰

A heads up to anyone attending the upcoming JSConf in October and locals to the Maryland state area. We're hosting the Node.js Collab Summit next October 17 and registration is now open for in-person participation: github.com/openjs-found...

👋 Hi Bluesky! I've opened github.com/bluesky-soci... that adds built-in translation as a progressive enhancement on browsers that ship the Translator API developer.chrome.com/docs/ai/tran... (Chrome 138+). On other browsers, it falls back to the present behavior of linking to Google Translate.

MIPS helmet saved my life. Took a serious hit on a downhill trail, just a small cut on the eyebrow thanks to this.

Seeing the recent supply-chain attacks made me prioritize this item from our backlog as I wanted a quick way to know if any of my local projects have been affected. Meet the new vlt client `:host()` Query selector: blog.vlt.sh/blog/host-co... #javascript #nodejs #packages

Anyone else having issues with macOS 26 Safari? It's incredibly slow for me on two different machines and iOS as well. Not sure what's going on there.

This is not over. 👇 🚨 A new wave of the npm supply chain attack just hit again. This time targeting CrowdStrike packages. Socket detected malware-laced updates that steal developer creds, spin up rogue GitHub Actions, and exfiltrate secrets. Developing story...

@steren.fr thanks for all the recent Cloud Run UI updates! Making Observability the default tab makes a lot of sense and the services/jobs separation makes it quicker to get to where you need to go.

Pretty cool election / voting dashboard for Boulder stump.vote/landing

If you can make it I will organize/sponsor a bar track of "Wes's talk about tech things while sharing a drink" 🍻 🤣

Ha! Managed to get a new seasonal profile pic after all!

What do people think of this? github.com/orgs/nodejs/... node.config.json => package.json cc @marcoippolito.dev

Some of you folks have never had to maintain a comprehensive configuration file for software you know very little about, and it shows.

JS Conf North America*

Wish we could have gotten more folks interested in the package metadata collab space. This is exactly the kind of thing we wanted to discuss.

Who's going to OpenJS Conf NA?

Teams in GitHub are a great way to manage permissions to repos, especially when your org is growing. But the GitHub UI to manage teams, repos and team/repo permissions are abyssal. I've been managing these for a while not with Terraform and it's amazing: zentered.co/articles/git...

IIRC that was brought up like 20 times in this thread github.com/nodejs/tooli...

Looks similar in goal to @boneskull.dev's issue from a while back. github.com/nodejs/tooli...

My attempt to have seasonal profile pics has failed. It’s nearly winter, summer was a bust, and I guess I’ll just leave it till next year 🤷

💈Where should Node look first for configuration values? Vote now below.

Anyone else having issues with @auth0byokta.bsky.social and @playwright.dev since this morning? Did the labels on the form change?

Reminder that you shouldn't be required to log in to a browser in order to use it. This is also true for lots of other types of software.

🌐 Reminder from the Node.js TSC meeting today: We're having a Collaborator Summit next October 17th! github.com/openjs-found...

Yesterday we visited Green Mountain Falls, CO to visit the kinetic sculpture Off the Beaten Path by Patrick Shearn. I wasn’t ready for just how dynamic it was even in the slightest breeze. Reminds me of a murmuration of starlings. Incredible artwork. It’ll only be up through October 19th.

Since when are there mandatory parking zones for Lime? Just spent $5 to return where I started and walk the entire trip again 😡

On my way to BoulderJS! lu.ma/ifubttsd

First day of school. Cars, drop off stress etc are on the other side near the main entrance 😆

I missed home food so I made Flammkuchen / Tarte Flambée from scratch and the result was actually pretty good! Borrowed a small wood fired pizza oven and managed to only burn one out of eight.

What's with all these podcast invites these days? Am I missing something? I get several invites a week with automated drip-campaigns asking me if I'm interested to participate in a podcast.

Should I colocate test files in #nodejs projects or keep them separate in a test folder? Wondering how to strip them from a production build if I colocate and what the point of a “src” folder is, if there are tests in there.

Really enjoying Acapulco on Apple TV+. But the colors, romance, choreography, music reminds me so much of … Bollywood?!

I'll be speaking at the AI For Developers meetup in San Francisco next Wednesday: - 6:30pm: Google Cloud Run for AI (Inference, agents, and MCP) - 7pm: A Python-First Approach to AI Infra, from Sandboxes to Inference - 7:30pm: Zylo-docs: The Code-first, AI-powered API Spec Tool lu.ma/qemn7akv

Google/Gmail need to add a "Report" button here for unsolicited calendar invites and take proper action against abusers. Even marking as junk will keep the invite in the calendar until you respond / decline. It's the new low for email marketing. @developers.google.com

"PhD-level experts in your back pocket" is a completely nonsensical description of AI but a pretty good description of social media if you follow the right people

Google Gemini CLI has mixed feelings: > gh issue view 297 ✦ I am sorry, but I cannot run gh commands directly. quit, restart > gh issue view 297 ✔ Shell gh issue view 297 🤯

Asked the kids what they want for dinner? Of all the things: Rice 🍚 , chicken 🍗 and kale 🥬. Guess we’re doing something right.
