I'm so gosh-darned excited! css-tricks.com/css-tricks-h...

I've never left! Great ad

lol

TIL that in Rust you have Arc::downgrade, which gives a weak pointer without the ownership. It blew my mind 🤯

Contrary to the other type-inferences out there, the Biome one works on-demand now. A very early benchmark shows that it's almost as fast as tsrs, and uses less memory.

And of course, release botched. This new release flow from npm is dreadful 😔

details leaked. this vulnerability is a full unauthenticated unconditional remote code execution exploit against any service running on a PHP version from 5.4 until latest yeah if anything deserves CVSS 11, this is it. this is CATACLYSMICALLY bad.

The promise of "a tool that does all" isn't entirely true. OXC has disconnected linting, formatting and type-checking; hence, vite+ just coordinates different tools. Same for Bun, its new commands have limited sharing of the same HIR. Formatting has a different parser. Of course, it's a choice.

A few weeks ago, I shared the idea of analyzing contributors’ text for signs of automation. Now it's an app and a GitHub Action you can add to your anti-clanker Swiss Army knife. It's still an ongoing experiment, but it seems to capture the patterns in PR and issue descriptions reasonably well.

I gave a talk at EMF titled "Men in Tech #YesAllMen", in which I told my experience of being a woman in tech. I was afraid to publish it in case it affected my current or future employment. With all the current news I would like to add my 2¢. So here is the recording: youtu.be/WXL6K1lhvt0?...

Would you @astro.build inside @tanstack.com start? Or would you use @tanstack.com inside @astro.build ? 👀 Maybe I said too much already... 🫢

Bun just landed a formatter in their code base. It's a slopfork of oxfmt. Oxfmt uses a fork of @biomejs.dev Biome uses the same IR of Prettier, and printer heuristics. However Biome adds stuff that Prettier doesn't have. Happy to see that Biome, in a sense, is shaping the next gen of formatters

No, it's not easy. I've done this with Biome (from Rome). I wasn't alone, a team was there to help me. It took us months. We had to rebuild a new identity. I couldn't have done it alone. I'm glad I found people that believed in the mission and helped to create a new community.

I called this the same day celld was open sourced! Unfortunately the Deno company didn't succeed, but the runtime is there up for grabs!

What's so great about Tailwind? Please don't tell me "styles that work everywhere"; I don't buy it. It ends up shipping an HTML page full of classes, which increases the page weight that customers have to download. That means more money, more bandwidth, and slower load times.

I'm really happy to see that @astro.build donations haven't been stopped, and they increased a bit since the TATC (the company behind Astro) was acquired back in January. Thank you for all the donations, the project is thriving!

Great response to why you shouldn't use CSS-in-JS.

I have to admit, @pi.dev is amazing. I just created a plugin to launch sub-agents using Herder panels.

What are your thoughts about supporting biome.yaml as @biomejs.dev configuration file?

HTML formatter is up to 4x faster, thanks to @codspeed.io We're almost ready for the next minor.

Do you use Astro’s experimental Container API? We need your feedback! 💬 github.com/withastro/ro...

Today we're launching ai-policy.dev! A collaboration of me, @danielroe.dev and @matteogabriele.npmx.social - this provides a few human curated AI contribution policies you can choose from. Our hope is that this will help you better define your stance and what kind of contributions you accept 🙏

That's fucked up on so many levels. Is this reality? Someone give me the meme

The @biomejs.dev analyser has reached FIVE lifetimes! If it's not a record, we're getting there

Wrote something about formatters. A biased vision of how formatters should be implemented in 2026 ematipico.xyz/blog/the-bes...

GitHub should just kill the security developer program. Especially that badge they provide. It's worthless nowadays.

No @github.com , I don't need a Copilot subscription, so please stop renewing it

It probably went unnoticed, but there are a couple of fixes that made the formatter up to 2x faster. In particular for big files with no comments.

Would you like a faster @biomejs.dev analyser? 👀

Check this out. It's a really good application, and helps with the burnout from "too many bots" sending PRs and useless messages

One step closer to Starlight v1 👀

In the next version of Starlight, the sidebar will render 1409x faster! That's right, it's not a typo

Two weeks until Astro Together in Wiesbaden, Germany! Join Astro maintainers for an evening of talks and demos at @seibert.group HQ. Sign up today 👇️ go.seibert.group/astro-togeth...

The @biomejs.dev YAML parser now passes the official testing suite. 100% code coverage. This means you'll get formatted code in the Markdown frontmatter.

Wrote a userscript that adds "AI" labels to users detected by agentscan.tools (by @matteogabriele.npmx.social)! Much needed hints to judge "contributions" these days. 👉 github.com/bluwy/github...

Astro DX in Biome is about to get better, thanks to @erika.florist and @astro.build

This AI fever is making developers numb and stupid. For real. Do they even read the code _and the comments_ written by these tools? Every day I see PRs with abysmal comments, with OP saying "reviewed by me". Oh yeah? Explain me those "load-bearing" comments, for crying out loud

I think @github.com owns a post-mortem of the recent outrages. Isn't that the minimum?

Biome v2.5.8 is out. This release ships the new nursery lint rule useReactCompiler! Give it a try and leave feedback on the related issue linked to the diagnostic. biomejs.dev/linter/rules...

Our support for uBlock Origin isn't going anywhere.

I eventually made the @biomejs.dev Markdown parser up to 2x faster. I believe it's ready for production :)

Rust announced their LLM policy. I suggest everyone to give it a read. Objectively, it's well written, and it explains plainly their decision. It fits the project. blog.rust-lang.org/inside-rust/...

New feature in AgentScan GitHub app: the honeypot comment. This comment is intended to welcome regular users, but it also contains a hidden comment that only AI agents will read. This will prompt them to write a specific custom string that will immediately close the PR and add a label as automations

I'm looking for a full-time job! - Backend (esp. security stuff!) - Proficient in Go and TypeScript/JavaScript - Remote from Japan - Fall-winter start Send me a DM or an email to pilcrow(@)pilcrowonpaper(.)com

That's what happens when a @astro.build core team member comes back from holidays. Should we have more holidays?? Amazing proposal 🚀
