Dying wish is the best hardcore band. You'll not change my mind.

You can't stop me from playing Metroid Fusion on a GBA emulator on my modded Wii. I do own a computer and I do own several other consoles. But this is the way you are supposed to play GBA games.

In Firefox, if you could filter network requests based on path/file.. you could negate the filter and exclude all requests from the vite dev server. I think that's something we need. Vite module requests always spam the network panel.

We're getting there! Was a very productive week.

Let an LLM write some code. Then write like 100 tests but still don't trust the code. - coding in 2025

I'm learning so much more about CSS by building surimi (because I am forced to read the CSS specification). For example, just wrote some types to figure out all possible @media query descriptors you can use. It's 40 in total

I'm in a deep `extends...infer` typescript hole again. And it's just awesome. Getting a lot done today!

Wow! Very pleasantly surprised when visiting @inwx.de website today - they've got a shiny new website! Buuut domain search doesn't work :(

Heard people say all JS package managers work the same (so they stick with the abandoned npm). They don’t: npm can be up to 2x slower than pnpm. And the gap in DX and security is even bigger. yarnpkg.com/benchmarks

The first version of the 🍣 surimi playground is live! It runs the @rolldown.rs based compiler in a WebContainer, and updates the editor instantly! Check it out! surimi.dev/playground Compile times are bit slower than locally tho. Also - has type-hint support - you can install new packages - ...

Okay downloading Firefox beta for Android now because I CAN'T WAIT FOR VIEW TRANSITIONS let's goooo

Is there anyone who knows how to hook up a @stackblitz.com Webcontainer instance to a Monaco editor? I'm talking typescript type resolution, getting JSDoc comments from node_modules etc. I can get it to work by including typescript and @typescript/vfs in the build but.. that seems overkill?

Ai is secure, intelligent and will replace us.

I have to say: If I trust anyone to make this move into a commercial direction it's the people behind vite, vitest, rolldown etc. A few people are absolutely carrying WebDev tooling through the last couple of years mostly for free... So if they now want to get SOME money from FFANG etc that's good

Hell yeah! Kevin on @piccalil.li. A must read!

The EU (and Germany) want to ban End-to-end encryption in Whatsapp etc. But we may be able to stop them. This would end secure communication. Absolutely bonkers. Sign the petition and let them know it can't happen weact.campact.de/petitions/ch...

I got the "paru.dev" domain. Thought it sounded nice. Let's see if I ever use it. There is the paru package manager already. Maybe I'll give it to them if they need it.

Writing rollup/vite plugins is super easy and satisfying. But transpiring and executing typescript in the build process is surprisingly hard. Especially because node still doesn't really like to execute ESM, ESPECIALLY not when it uses ES imports.

Outrageous!

Hell yeah. I'll pay the first 50 bucks xD love the idea.

I built this because I was using Sass for years, but it's not really needed anymore for what I am doing. But I am (sadly) using more and more CSS-in-JS libraries. So I thought.. Why not make it TS-in-CSS to essentially have type-save, compositional, functional CSS (outside of the main TS files)

Oh no, it's really happening

According to some quick googling, of the 370 million people born in the year 2000, about 40 million will live exactly until the year 2100. Another 20 million will live even longer than that!

The PERFECT timing. Just like with the blazing fast deployments. *wink*

I can't stress enough how important it is to make an example here. Take all the money from these companies. Find alternatives. Vote with your pockets because fundamentally money and power is everything to these insufferable pricks.

I love this! On blueview.app, you can see who recently interacted with you, and much more insightful data! Shout out! Don't want to tag all these busy people though :) Thanks for making this @srsholmes.com

Hey @en.sitnik.ru! Maybe I am using the postCSS API wrong, but if I create a `postcss.root` with `raws: { semicolon: true }`, should `root.toString()` not respect that? It respects the after, codeAfter options etc, but never uses the extra semicolon. Do node raw options override the root?

I might just have the most brilliant idea of my career, or it's the most useless piece of code I will ever write. Let's find out 😊

Wake up babe, new dying wish album just dropped and it's fucking amazing open.spotify.com/album/6cgf2m...

Just like with React, I don't understand how Next got to be the "default" frontend framework. React is awesome, and next has some super cool aspects. But neither of them should be the default for SOOO many reasons.

Man, making good logos is so hard.

By popular demand, here is my debut map, made with blood, sweat and tears, when I should have been looking for my missing father, apparently. From the latest Map Men episode - about Twin Towns... By all means have a play but feel free not to point out the mistakes. bit.ly/3K3jq6V

👀 Browserslist 4.26 - Now supports Baseline Queries Thanks @en.sitnik.ru @tonypconway.com , this will be way more convenient in many cases!

You probably knew that a typescript enum, when compiled, adds extra runtime code. But did you also know, that a `const enum` does not? Might be worth using instead of string literals!

wasmer.io Just surpassed 20k stars on GitHub! Awesome stuff. #wasm #wasmer

Just discovered the "Xerox Alto" UI in the latest blog post by @bradfrost.com and it looks so damn good. This aesthetic is exactly what I was going for with my website.. but I might have deviated too far. Also, it's a brilliant blog post, check it out at bradfrost.com

I updated my website! It now has: - prettier, colorful dark scheme (below) - a CV page - a new blog post (for my CSS nerds) - better accessibility, progressive enhancements etc. - automatically generated PDFs (like the CV page). Check it out at janis.me and tell me what theme you like the most!

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

Hey css wizards (@bell.bz maybe?) Do you know if there is any proposal / recent addition to CSS that let's you extract a channel from a color? Say I have some hex color and I want it's hue. I can convert it to (e.g) hsl with `hsl(from my-color h 0 0)`, but I cannot access just the hue now.

Is it Christmas already?

Ah yeah. A typescript linting tool inspired by rust, built with go and a version of typescript also built with go. Also, the logo is a play on the rust logo. The ES ecosystem is getting crazy. github.com/web-infra-de...

That's hilarious

Oh no. I think I'm starting to like rust more than I like typescript. And typescript was my whole personality until now🫠 help

Claude just called a rust compiler warning "simply wrong" Not sure about that, dude. You might want to rethink your qualifications.

While on a bit of a deep-dive into threads and sharedArrayBuffers in rust/wasm, I found this really nice article by Roberto Vidal / @stackblitz.com about an... interesting solution to memory leaks in wasm threads. Check it out here

I can't believe I didn't think of this before. Kinda want to revisit like 20 projects to check for that, but NO! I'm stronger than that.

New blog post. TL;DR: CSS :has, the adjacent sibling-combinator and :nth-of-type are incredible.
