From what I can tell, the 18F group within the federal government was one of the most effective teams at bringing modern software practices and modernizing many government agencies' approach to technology. Laying off people in this group seems antithetical to improving government efficiency.

I got laid off today, with the rest of 18F. 18F was an elite federal software shop. We made gov't websites work better, more efficiently for the American people. We saved taxpayers from getting screwed over by contractors. And were fired for it. We made this website to tell our story: 18f.org

I have covered presidential politics for 40 years. This was the most juvenile display by a President and Vice President I have ever seen. Other presidents treated their enemies with more respect. This is a low point and a dark day for the US. Totally embarrassing.

Hey! 👋 In ~2 months, I'm presenting a research project at Node Congress that compiles JVM bytecode to WebAssembly, letting you import Java functions in JavaScript. 😈 This'll allow existing Java code to run in the browser and new JS runtimes like Cloudflare Workers... 🙈 gitnation.com/badges/node-...

Wowza @cloudflare.social's AI Gateway is a must use 😮 Super simple to drop-in if you're already using @sdk.vercel.ai Literally just specify the `baseUrl` and that's it developers.cloudflare.com/ai-gateway/i... You get so much goodness out of the box from Cloudflare that it's a no-brainer ✨

I can't believe they've just cancelled the Epidemic Intelligence Service program at CDC. This program trains the best & brightest epidemiologists, who then go on to have distinguished careers in public health, serving at CDC, in state health departments, overseas, ...

Just landed and coming soon to Cloudflare workers ... node:crypto APIs createPrivateKey, createPublicKey, generateKeyPair, and generateKeyPairSync ... With the caveats that DSA and DH key generation are not supported yet with these apis. Hopefully those will come soonish.

I ported ukiyo-e.org over to @cloudflare.social Workers + R1 (image hosting, about 1TB) + D2 (for DB and search) recently and I'm super happy with it, it's a great experience! Have it using React Router v7 + React 19, about 11 mil dynamic requests/month, served in under 35ms! Total cost ~$25/month.
