If you pay attention to any large industry long enough and follow it to its logical conclusion you eventually end up sounding like a communist even if you started off testing CPU case fans. youtu.be/cUrJVdF2me0?...

Who's going to FOSDEM in January? There is no API devroom or any API stand. I was thinking, maybe some co-located meetup? unconference style - but not necessarily. There are many other events already there: opensourceweek.eu Or too late?

I see a lot of complaints about untested AI slop in pull requests. Submitting those is a dereliction of duty as a software engineer: Your job is to deliver code you have proven to work simonwillison.net/2025/Dec/18/...

Merriam-Webster’s human editors have chosen ‘slop’ as the 2025 Word of the Year.

The Doctor Who series 10 soundtrack has FINALLY dropped. Only 8 years late. It's so good, I think a rewatch is in order over the Christmas break!

could you make it one day without using open source? @vlad.website tried

Accessibility is usually an afterthought in software, added at the very end. What if we made it part of the GraphQL schema from the get-go and treated it as a core part of the product? Watch Vanessa Johnson from The New York Times explore this idea 👇 youtu.be/ttmp_zkHH_0

Every year on my birthday I do social media pet court and today is the day 🎉 Reply with a photo of your pet and tell me about their crimes to recieve my faultless judgement and their sentence (if applicable). 👩‍⚖️🐾

As someone who works on the interaction layer of software: it's this. Stupid trends in hardware self correct after a generation or two, but *software* ratchets in the direction of unusable because designers are occupied with interaction patterns and not whether the fucking thing works properly.

Petition in Germany recognizing open source as volunteering for the common good 🤩 Seems like a good step towards recognition and a healthier open source ecosystem www.openpetition.de/petition/onl...

Telling my teen they can't use ChatGPT to do their homework for them, whilst I have ChatGPT open on my screen doing my homework for me

Twitter accounts are based in Russia. BlueSky accounts are based in homes with, frankly, too many books, plants, obsolete cables, and pieces of rustic pottery, that could do with a bit of a tidying up, to be honest.

one downside of LLMs in OSS is _huge_ walls of text in issues, where the text does technically make sense but reads like a student trying to meet a character limit 😅

your dead AI mother loves you so much ❤️

This is giving Web 1.0 and I like it 💖

Is 2026 the year we fix GraphQL error handling?

I can't wait for this!! We've had an extremely strong year with - more meetups than in any previous year, - the largest meetup we've ever had, and - the most members of any Rust meetup in the world! And what better way to celebrate but to cap it off with an unconf!!!

Let's talk GraphQL error handling! Do you model your errors as data? Or put them in the "errors" array? Or something else? Community member @hitherejoe.bsky.social is improving the official documentation. Let's write all of this down! github.com/graphql/gra...

ladies and gentlemen...we got him

This is a great talk! The key things to note about fragments are that a single function should read a given fragment (i.e. they're not for reuse). isograph.dev is an entire framework built upon taking that to its logical conclusion!

GraphQL subscriptions are easy… right? Turns out, getting them to work in production at scale is a whole other story. Message queues, WebSockets, SSE, workers, connection limits: it’s all here. 🎥 Watch Laurin Quast from The Guild break it down 👇 youtu.be/eeey6nUQDaE

You’re using GraphQL fragments wrong. They’re not for reuse, they’re for co-location. Here’s what Meta learned refining this idea 👇🏼 youtube.com/watch?v=gMCh...

”We fed our horse and a competing jet engine hay for a week and then measured their hooves. The results will astound you.” Web dev discourse in 2025.

Great post from Jovi here! Remember: Trusted Documents: if you can, you should!

13 PRs against the React Repo from different people, all adding one line to the `security.md`, all within three minutes. One of the PRs is even titled "lololololololoolol". This stuff ruins Open Source - seems like the repo is now closed to new contributors 😔

IDs and passports don't even need to have gender markers on them. you could remove them entirely and nothing of consequence would be lost

A fun thing to do if you can afford it is to give money to someone doing good work so that they both have more money, can do more work, and feel appreciated for doing the good work

Conference photos often don't catch your best side as you're too busy talking and gesturing. But at #GraphQLConf I had no idea I would end up standing on stage directly in front of my own avatar. Ooops!
