Bluesky! I forgot about this site. It's a sad truth that network effects are powerful forces.

thoughts?

We’re in the discovery phase to #FreeJavaScript from Oracle: depositions, surveys, evidence, expert testimony. Costly, but vital to protect "JavaScript" for all. Help us put forward the strongest case possible👇 deno.com/blog/javascr...

Fresh 2 has graduated to beta releases - essentially release candidates before a stable release. Fresh can now act as a Vite plugin, opening the door to HMR, faster boot times, and Cloudflare deployments. deno.com/blog/fresh-a...

We're launching a GoFundMe to cover legal fees to #FreeJavaScript trademark from Oracle. We need to raise $200k to make full use of the discovery phase in the trademark cancelation petition. This is a critical step in protecting the JavaScript name for the whole community. 👉 javascript.tm

hilarious that @philhawksworth.dev has such a perfect voice that people think he's AI

Wrote a little Sunday update on the ongoing JavaScript trademark fight

New Deno v Oracle JavaScript trademark update! I'll write up a summary soon. ttabvue.uspto.gov/ttabvue/v?pn...

🚀 Deno v2.2.6 is released! - Smarter peer dependency handling - Faster npm installs - Lazy dynamic imports (unstable) - node:http, node:sqlite, and WebSocket fixes - Cross-curve ECDSA support Release notes: gist.github.com/ry/16b264485...

I cut this release myself :) The npm patch functionality is cool - read more about it here github.com/denoland/den... patching local JSR packages is already done docs.deno.com/runtime/fund...

Here's how Deno's built-in OTel support can immediately add logs and traces to any Node.js backend 👇 deno.com/blog/otel-tr...

#FreeJavaScript: We responded to Oracle's Motion to Dismiss our fraud claim. Oracle argues submitting one valid specimen excuses submitting a fraudulent one. Our position: one legitimate submission doesn't erase another fraudulent act. deno.com/blog/deno-v-...

#FreeJavaScript update - we'll be posting this to TTAB tomorrow Roughly translated: Just because you submitted two pieces of evidence and one of them was not fraudulent, does not mean you did not commit fraud.

11 days into using @deno.land for Advent of Code and I'm hooked. It's fast. There's no bundle/compile step. Debugging is easy. Node feels backwards to me now.

The most surprising thing about being a parent is how your child will lock eyes with you while taking a shit.

Update on #FreeJavaScript: Oracle has filed a notice of appearance, signaling engagement in the JavaScript trademark case. Aside from this, we’ve had no communication. Their response is due by January 4th. deno.com/blog/deno-v-...

There’s something hilariously delightful about wrestling a trademark out of the hands of a publicly traded company. It sparks joy for me.

We have filed the petition to cancel Oracle's JavaScript trademark with the USPTO: deno.com/blog/deno-v-... You can read the full filing here: ttabvue.uspto.gov/ttabvue/v?pn... #FreeJavaScript

It's done. Now it’s your turn, Oracle. We’ve submitted a formal petition to cancel the JavaScript trademark: it is generic, Oracle has abandoned it, and Oracle committed fraud on the USPTO during the last trademark renewal. It's time to #FreeJavaScript. deno.com/blog/deno-v-...

. @deno.land used lint! It was super effective!
