2 weeks into One Meal a Day I can clearly see how much more focused I am before I eat Which leads me to a scary thought: What if the only reason I’ve been a night owl my whole life is because I eat three meals a day so I never stop digesting

this file/diff UI is so much fun file -> diff: just edit the before/after version diff -> file: just apply it to any base make a pkg with a bunch of files/diffs if you ship a file, users get the file if you ship a diff, users can apply it themselves

I like “feed two birds with one scone” but what’s the equivalent for “I don’t have a dog in this fight”

the spacebar four times the size of the tab key for a reason

well, now @bomb.sh uses @pkg.pr.new too!

Rolldown's wasm build just got significantly faster in browsers thanks to @broooooklyn.bsky.social! One challenge of native bundlers is that they have to ship and run as wasm in browser environments. Some bundlers like rspack doesn't even support this due to the complexity it involves.

you can always tell when these are new because there's no dan brown books yet

weird jsdoc bug in @tanstack.com query, shows the example multiple times

This was a really good post! www.jacobparis.com/content/reac... Shoutout to @jacobparis.com Definitely something I'd have every new React developer read if they were to join my team!

Huge win from @franzanth.bsky.social creating a Content Scraper Blocklist: bsky.app/profile/cont... It's a blocklist for the kinds of engagement bait accounts that repost stolen content, often with misleading captions.
