ECMAScript excitement 😉 Congrats to @ashley-c.bsky.social from TechAtBloomberg on advancing the Composites proposal to Stage 2 at @tc39.es today 🎉 Composites are objects that are compared by value instead of identity. They are an evolution of Record & Tuple proposal.

Maintainers spend countless hours keeping the open source projects we all rely on secure. Too often, that work is unpaid. Socket is proud to join @openjsf.org's new Security Stewardship Program to help fund the researchers and maintainers protecting Node.js. socket.dev/blog/openjs-...

Another week, another package: show-keystrokes.netlify.app The native app I typically use to display keystrokes on the screen is disallowed by a corp policy. So I wrote a component to fill that gap. Embed it on your site and you’re good to go.

show-keystrokes.netlify.app<show-keystrokes> – Keystroke & Shortcut VisualizerA custom element that visualizes keystrokes, keyboard shortcuts, and navigational keys with macOS/Windows support and customizable themes.

For real!! Comedian Micky Overman says it like it is. Generally the only people even entertaining the thought of evil AGI are men. Women are too busy fixing the ACTUAL problems of AI, like idk, the way it automates, reproduces and exacerbates misogyny and makes all our lives worse...

I remember a conference after party a decade+ ago where @johnresig.com was stood in the corner on his own because everyone (including me) was too shy to speak to him. Fwiw, if you ever want to talk to me at one of these things, please just do it. I'm also shy.

I have been writing this post about the economics of open source, on and off, for 13 years. I wasn't expecting to end up at "Microsoft should send corporations a huge bill" but nothing else we've tried has worked. https://seldo.com/posts/nobody-pays-for-open-source-we-can-force-them-to/

seldo.comNobody pays for open source. We can force them to. | Seldo.comThirty years of voluntary funding schemes haven&#x27;t paid open source maintainers because asking doesn&#x27;t scale. The real money already flows — to JFrog, Docker, Sonatype — at the registry layer. The fix: registries charge companies for supply (they already do), then route a slice automatically to the maintainers who make that supply worth having.
