@jebox.bsky.social Is the Minecraft team aware the official .deb is broken for Ubuntu 26.04? There’s a workaround, but it that requires modifying the .deb file.

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

Remember when LLMs could supposedly understand everything based on just the content? Why do we have all those LLM related config files now?

🔥 GitHub action step names are mostly just noise and should be used sparingly

Can you give me a genuine reason for someone to use a site/app in a color mode (light/dark) different from their current OS mode? So far, the only argument I head was "well this site has a garbage light/dark mode". Okay, say the site has a perfect light/dark modes.

TypeScript 7.1 Beta is now available! Now with a preview API, content mapper support, new features, and some great optimizations. Give it a try and give us some feedback!

Can we all agree that slopforking is just unethical and disrespectful to the original authors? Doesn’t matter if it’s from source or reverse engineered. Competition is good, but so is maintenance and acknowledgement. Reverse engineering is an impressive feat, but not if it’s without effort.

Soooo uhhh...is it too soon to ask about the Trademark lawsuit @deno.land has against Oracle and what happens with the lawsuit now that Deno has been acquired by @cloudflare.social ? deno.com/blog/deno-v-...

Does anyone have any recommendations for hosting code sandboxes? Our Stackblitz embeds are broken. CodeSandbox doesn’t work either.

We have $100K to give away to open source maintainers! Let us know your suggestions and nominations.

Security review coming up? Transloadit now has SAML single sign-on (early access) for Enterprise Workspaces, passkeys for the Console, least-privilege scoped Auth Keys, SHA-384 request signing, and a SOC 2 Type II report on request.

With MSW 3.0 released this week, I want to try something new to make the project financially sustainable. I wrote an open letter about the project, its history, and impact on the ecosystem. I ask for five minutes of your time to read it. Thank you. mswjs.io/sponsor

The Transloadit API is now machine-readable: a public OpenAPI 3.1 spec, webhooks included, for typed clients and Postman imports, a JSON Schema to validate Assembly Notifications, and every docs page as Markdown plus llms.txt, so your coding agent reads the real docs.

This vscode-icons release is huuuge! Special thanks to GitHub user NaufalK25 who contributed a ton of new icons in this release and the one before it.

IT HAS DARK MODE

I recall someone wrote a tool to see if a GitHub account it a slop bot or not. What’s the name / link of the tool again?

Cool! My first security advisory from a third party for one of my personal projects! Oh wait… it’s LLM spam from a new GitHub account

I made some significant changes to mdx-content-mapper. It now uses micromark tokens instead of mdast. This makes the mappings much more stable and gives better handling if certain syntax errors. But my cat won’t allow me to move off the couch, so I won’t make a release today.

new smol-toml release who dis - Full Temporal support - 2x performance improvements - New options for safe handling of `__proto__` - Lots of correctness fixes and additions github.com/squirrelchat...

This is such a silly mistake and yet I see you making it all the time in your tests. ❌ Do NOT run cleanup after assertions ✅ Schedule the cleanup via hooks or use Disposable Objects A seemingly tiny change that'll have tremendous impact on your tests, especially memory-wise.

Why do people use the "prepublishOnly" and "prepare" npm script? I feel like they serve no real purpose, but people use them because they’re used and written about a lot.

Cool! Apparently my kilt fits again somehow. I guess I'm not wearing pants tomorrow

JavaScrip quiz: Which lines contain function declarations? 1: const a = function() {} 2: const b = function c() {} 3: const d = () => {} 4: export default function() {} 5: export default function e() {} 6: export default () = {}

I published a TypeScript content mapper for CSS modules. This gives you type-safety and definitions when importing CSS in TypeScript. github.com/remcohaszing...

Can characters be escaped in code blocks in JSDoc comments? I want something like this: /** * ```js * /* This is a comment inside a code block inside a comment */ * ``` */ It only has to work for TypeScript, not every JSDoc tool out there.

I'm declaring TypeScript 7 for Ember: ready At work, on the 3 million line monolithic package, I'm seeing ~ 4m40s -> 12s a ✨ 23x ✨ speed boost

`assert()` style test assertions are so much better than `expect()`. I really don’t mind the stylistic choice. But `assert()` style assertions help TypeScript narrow down types, whereas `expect()` style assertions can’t do that.

Ember now has preliminary TS7 support ~ via the content-mappers feature that merged in TS last week Testers wanted! (requires TS Nightly)

Oops, I accidentally added type checking for code blocks in regular markdown files in addition to MDX. Ah well…
