Bro ... you made my day with this post. I still wear the t-shirt with a smile on my face

The Exxon ad Exxon doesn't want you to see. New from Adam McKay @ghostpanther.bsky.social and voiced by Woody Harrelson.

Covid and flu vaccine really knocked me out this year. 🤒

I never really looked at the social / OSS feed on GitHub.com but this is still a bit of a shock that it's all gone. Definitely more useful to me personally, but for the community ... idk ?

@support.bsky.team is oauth signin broken? After clicking "sign in" I get the 2FA form, but the moment I try to click in the2FA confirmation box, the form folds back to Sign In, can't get past that.

Meta glasses were caught spying on their users once more: www.androidauthority.com/ray-ban-meta... Meta was quick to "fix" and therefore admit it: "This issue has been resolved..." #Demeta #Meta #Facebook #MetaGlasses #RayBanMeta #RayBan #Privacy #News #Smart #gadget #Smartglasses0

Anyone here operating an MCP server in Python? I'm working on an analytics / instrumentation tool and would love to get some feedback pypi.org/project/mcps...

ooooh. 👀

Cloudflare has been shipping features like crazy. Workers, email, storage, databases, so many additions in just a year.

The big tech companies want you to believe that their default software offerings are the only option, but spoiler alert, there’s a wide array of fantastic software out there. www.eff.org/pages/i-wan...

"On This Day" memory: Oct 4, 2014 - "WeNode", the first (unofficial) #NodeConf Barcelona. 1 day, 2 tracks, with @pimterry.fyi @rreverser.com @krasimir.bsky.social and so many more amazing folks. We had JS cake and @gorhgorh.bsky.social with his Cat Bot laser kits for people to build. What a day ❤️

@digitalocean.com literally doing everything they can to ruin their reputation 🫡

"PNPM also blocks post-install scripts. Does NPM still yolo those?" Nope, 2026 is when all pkgmgrs opt out of install scripts by default. I just came back from giving a talk about supply chain @nodeconf.eu Slides: naugtur.pl/pres3/lava/2...

Due to AI, I have disabled external pull requests on all my repos. Open source, as we have known it, was fun while it lasted. (It’s been 15 years for me) I will still maintain projects and handle issues.

slop it (v. phr.) /slɑp ɪt/ slopped it · slopping it To ruin an experience by adding AI to it. "The museum audio guide was great until they slopped it." "My bank slopped it. Every answer starts with 'Great question!'" You read it here first.

Thank you everyone for joining us at #NodeConfEU 2026! 💚 We hope you enjoyed it as much as we did, and we can’t wait to see you again next year! 📅👩‍💻 #TechCommunity #NodeCommunity

@nico.kaiser.me thanks Nico for the pictures! I added all the speakers to the Node.js starter pack, to make it easier for the folks who aren’t here yet! bsky.app/starter-pack...

If you're going to NodeConf.eu, drop me a message so I can get you added to the signal group

so real. nothing teaches you how to chill like “if i don’t chill out i’m going to run out of air and die”

I switch to BetterMouse when my Logi MX mouse decided it wouldn't work without an internet connection, so seeing this web site is a FUCK YEAH moment. openlogi.org/en Stupid companies thinking for a second that devices need a cloud. Mouse + cloud = broken trust. (Same goes for flipping cars!)

Can't believe I'm doing this. (Dev)life has changed so much over the past 12 months. I don't need VSCode any more 🤯

for those that need to test out some automated, weird, or destructive workflows. try it out on pds.rip. a pds that generates accounts for you that only last 7 days. never worry about leaving behind random junk on other peoples infra, ours cleans up after you. support for did:plc and did:web

Hooray, Anthropic finally gave up!

Imma download a car

100% true. And, honestly, one of the secrets to @nodejs.org's longevity is that we exactly built resilience to this into the governance. No single company can represent more than 1/3 of the TSC for instance. It's never perfect but with effort companies can participate rather than dominate.

I’ve been following semantic release and conventional commit for probably a decade. Is it time to move on?

What happened to bsky.app? Getting an invalid certificate error.

🚶‍♀️🚴 New research from Ireland's National Transport Authority confirms how active travel infrastructure is an investment that pays for itself many times over, benefiting people, the environment and the economy. read more about it here: buff.ly/tRlpIc0

Slow down frontier model development. Bring open weights to current frontier. Build out local inference providers, stabilize hardware prices, focus on cost and token throughput for a bit. Get our software updated to handle what's being thrown at us. I would not mind spending a beat on distribution.

Apparently Digital Ocean canceled their $50/month sponsorship of GNOME and FlatHub the month before giving Omarchy 3 million dollars. social.treehouse.systems/@barthalion/...

Given we don’t write code anymore… why are we still dealing with TypeScript and transpilation? Models can write perfect JS in less tokens.

How many actors did they hire for the Apple Event??

That’s quite a backdrop to play cricket 🏏

Just once I'd like to successfully connect to a LiftMaster garage door opener / myQ

EV road-trip planning, using Bluesky auth, AT Protocol, OpenStreetMap, and Open Charge Map. https://roadbook.us/about?utm_source=bluesky&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=atproto-2026-09

Plan your new electric road trip with roadbook.us and see which and how many states you crossed during your ride and all the states you visited across several trips.

Wanted to try out Codex and ran a few basic code prompts. They banned me after the first day and wouldn't refund my subscription for the month either. Guess I'm staying away from OpenAI.

Espresso is such a thing of beauty

Kind of a long shot, but I’ll ask: Has anyone put their design patterns and rules into a proper graph db or graph RAG to support your design system ontology? Looking to bounce some ideas with someone in the design-engineer space and maybe compare notes.

I’ve been a little too heads-down building these last few years… Unfortunately in the past month or two I’ve come to the conclusion that while I’m proud of what I built, my startup has one last swing left and it’s not one that needs me. So I am on the hunt for what’s next, be it leadership or IC.

Can someone explain me why I can't do a simple ACH transfer with Capital One? This is driving me nuts.

I'll be there! ;-) I'll even have dog stickers.

Just bought my ticket to @nodeconf.eu for the end of September! Very excited for this, lots & lots of interesting things happening in the Node.js community right now. Who else is coming?
