Our broadband provider says they can offer 10Gbps but if I upgrade all our networking equipment it's apparently going to cost an extra 2-4 watts PER PORT used vs 2.5Gbps 🤯

We just completed a house purchase in Portugal and got very startled when the entire bank loan landed in our current account after the deeds had been signed! I checked and they had blocked withdrawals 🤣 The money was automatically sent to the vendor an hour later.

Finally some good news!

Github Actions giving me really actionable feedback today

At least ww3 will have a memecoin

I really need a Lotus Emira in my life

I spent half a day trying to work out why I couldn't generate the specific 16bit CRC in some communication examples in a specification document. I emailed the doc author and they told me the document was generated by AI so not to trust the examples 🤦‍♂️

😭

The flight we needed out of Vienna today was overbooked and a hotel for another night was crazy money so we jumped on a train to Bratislava!

New Bloody Mary level achieved

Writing cross platform c++ is a truly awful experience

require-in-the-middle v8.0.0 has been released which reduces the dependencies significantly while only bumping the minimum supported Node version to v8.10.0

Thank you JavaScript!

Love it how airport security get rude and angry when people don't know the rules that differ by country and airport and are constantly changing 🤣

We've been incredibly lucky with the weather for 68 degrees North. Lofoten, Norway is beautiful and I would highly recommend it!

It still blows my mind that when flying within Schengen you can check-in online and board through automated gates with no passport or id checks. What stops you from using someone else's ticket?

Every couple of months I dig out my Windows laptop to test or debug something and it spends the next day almost unusable because it's downloading and installing dozens of updates with multiple restarts required.

I created a native node module that can capture JavaScript stack traces for all threads from any other thread! github.com/getsentry/se...

I'm going to create a JavaScript registry that proxies npm and transpiles all the ESM only packages to support CJS too 😏

A light Portuguese snack

Oh I've missed the Mediterranean produce 😍

@chadwhitacre.com are the clips of hard labour moving huge rocks a visual metaphor for open source maintenance? 😄

If you've ever had imposter syndrome, consider that with nearly 20 years experience I managed to git reset my working directory this morning before I'd had coffee and lost hours worth of work 😭

Stansted Airport - London's shittiest airport™️

Summer is coming 😍

Amazingly clear day over Europe today. Managed to get some pretty clear shots of central London from 10km up

Does anyone remember when we didn't live in a political satire?

It's not the first time I've watched my wife fly from the jump seat but the level of responsibility still blows my mind every time! In the briefing I was told "DO NOT TOUCH ANYTHING" but I think that goes without saying 🤣

There are a load of nasty ESM/CJS interop issue when both @vite.dev and @pnpm.io are used together in monorepos. Is this a Vite or pnpm issue? github.com/nodejs/requi... github.com/getsentry/se... github.com/getsentry/se...

@vite.dev any tips for getting eyes on my PR? I've added Debug ID support to webpack, rollup and rolldown and wanted to get this working in Vite too! github.com/vitejs/vite/...

This evening I'm mostly parsing minidumps with Node.js

What's all this talk about "local first" web apps? Is it just a rebranding of "Progressive Web Apps" that we've been shipping for a decade?

absolutely incredible attack vector

Going backwards on iOS is so inconsistent and awful. Sometimes you have to find and hit a back button and occasionally swipe gestures work. There's no way to know which one you should be using though. Why does anyone put up with this?

I've spent years working full time from 12-14 inch laptops without any external monitor, keyboard or mouse. I've had home offices but I didn't use them much so I stopped kitting them out with peripherals I barely ever used. Please donate to my GoFundMe to help pay for my chiropractor

Flying on standby tickets means I occasionally have to sit on a flip down, rear facing jump seat in the back galley with the crew. Nice to make it on the flight but no way to get any work done here 😆

Here’s me talking about local variable support in the @sentry.io node sdk youtu.be/sA1wPo-GTzU?... All credits to @timfish.bsky.social for the implementation and bug fixing magic 💪

I made my first PR to v8 😬 chromium-review.googlesource.com/c/v8/v8/+/59...
