A month ago I had to take a train in Italy at 10pm, the train was marked as accessible, it had level boarding, and there were elevators to get to the platform. Problem: the elevators had been turned off at 9:30pm. I reported it, and they are fixing it by... marking late trains as not accessible 🤬

If anybody else is planning to go to TPAC in October, and: - is traveling from the Netherlands, Belgium, France, UK (or close to them) - is interested in joining me by train rather than flying Here is my tentative plan on how to get there. Ask me if you are interested! npmx.social/xrpc/com.atp...

I reposted and unreposted this three times in a row trying to decide if I want to endorse it or not, but a few thoughts: - sure AI is ethically questionable, but unnecessarily having animals killed for your taste buds' pleasure is too - if you don't care about the ethical aspects but you still [...]

Want to stop wasting water? Great! Switching from animal-based to plant-based foods once a day is more valuable than boycotting AI for a year.

So do we all agree that if somebody's GitHub profile lists "this are all the big open source projects where I had a PR merged", they are a bot? Things like this:

So which one of you just turned on a cache?

I will be giving a talk at the @zurichjs.com pre-conf warm-up meetup about my experience of being a maintainer of Babel 🎉 It'll be on the Wednesday before the conference: see you all either there or at the conf :) And if anybody is getting a conf ticket, I have a 10% discount I can share in DM.

I'm curious. If you're based in Europe and in tech. Why do you think you're keeping your data in the default bluesky servers? Is it trust on alternatives? Or it doesn't matter much where your data lives? I have a lot of data far from home, but switching to an independent PDS felt like a good move.

If you're European, move your data to eurosky.social! It's just a few minutes. Or if you fancy, we also have plenty of space at our npmx.social PDS. Let's balance that % soon enough 🇪🇺

Every Babel package is ESM-only now! 🎉 Inflection point. If you were waiting for a signal to leave CJS behind for your packages, this is it!

📢 We released Babel 8 last week! Babel now targets modern browsers by default, is now ESM-only, and ships TypeScript types for all of its packages. We waited a week before announcing it to catch any last minute regressions, but now it's time for you to update your Babel version 😄

I wish there were two different names for bluesky-the-social-network and bluesky-the-client.

So now there are two main European atproto providers (PDS and client), one is open source and one is closed source. Very concerned that the EU talks about how important OSS is, and then they pick the closed source one :/

I got really tired of having to manually track down whether a package ships its own types, or has a DefinitelyTyped package, or how that changes over time. so, I made npmjs.com/dt-clean - `npx dt-clean -u` and you'll have the right version of the right DT packages!

Today I gave a talk JSNation about the life cycle of ESM in Node.js, how it differs in other environments and the new features that will affect these stages. Slides: github.com/joyeecheung/...

Rspack keeps pushing forward with support for the latest language features. After `import defer`, we're now adding `import source` for Wasm, following the TC39 Source Phase Imports proposal. It lets you import a compiled Wasm module directly. Thanks to @magic_akari for the contribution!

@jensimmons.bsky.social I was reading the safari release notes, and after years I just realized that the number in parentheses in the list of bugfixes is the rdar number. Is there any chance y'all could use something that is more publicly accessible, like the bugzilla number or commit id?

Did npm remove support for adding TOTP authenticator apps as the second factor for 2FA?

Hello friends and welcome to another “how’s ESM vs CJS doing?!” A big win this time, at a year of `require(esm)` available! 38.0% of the popular npm packages now have ESM, up from 33.4% half a year ago. ESM-only is up from 12.6% to 16.0%. Particularly this non-dual, “vanilla” growth is very big!

We'll do a talk about @npmx.dev together with @danielroe.dev at Web Engines Hackfest in A Coruña next week! Looking forward to meet our friends from @igalia.com and the browser engines dev world there!
