The amount of time I have invested porting stuff that worked perfectly fine with CommonJS over to ESM is unbelievable. But it is all worth it knowing that at the end of the day, after all that hard work, it will... work exactly the same with zero additional benefits... mostly. It will probably always have some hiccups that don't work as nice as the old system.
Here's a Markdown tip which I don't think is well known.
Triple backticks marks a code block. But if your code happens to contain three backticks you can use quadruple backtacks (or more) for the code block.
i.e.
````python
print("```")

A short document describing how I maintain open source projects. It talks about how I prefer issues to PRs, how I work in batches, and how I'm trigger-happy with bans. It's all about setting expectations.
I recently received an issue report that ijq was performing slowly. The issue claimed that, when used on a large (16 MB) JSON file, ijq was “too slow to be usable”. I downloaded the test file which …
Recently, we wanted to know which of our repos had Renovate installed, which is a use case several folks have now shared with us! This post showcases some of the queries we put together around our use of Renovate.
Most people seem to agree that building a personal brand requires consistently delivering useful content around a specific topic. I'm putting that together with my understanding of how ADHD presents for me personally. It feels like a challenge. 😅

When you redeem your points with the local pizza place and get your meal for free, but the app developers apparently didn't think about this. Best was that it asked me whether I wanted to pay by card or cash. Mate, it's free, why are you asking me ANYTHING about paying? 🤷♂️
Yesterday, my friend said they were really enjoying their EV in the garage. I reply oh yeah I like my Chevy Bolt. My friend looks confused. I ask what kind of electric they had. They said of course it’s electric it’s a Jolteon.

Good morning to everyone except the thieves at Redis. You didn't build it; you stole it from the community.
If you want it from the ones who built it, it's called Valkey.
Val Town raises seed round.
I love the idea behind Val Town: it hosts serverless functions for simple APIs or scheduled tasks. I use it to scrape my local council’s waste collection page and return an …
Someone asked me if staying at a tech company a long time makes it harder to get a job elsewhere.
Not really. The real challenge is that a lot of your effectiveness as a long timer comes from knowing people & processes. You just can’t tell how much until after you leave. Was it 10% or 90% of your success? 🤷🏾♂️

If you work in shell/terminal often enough, then over time the history will become your personal knowledge vault, documentation and command reference. ...
I decided to build a "clap" feature into my #IndieWeb blog, so visitors can show appreciation anonymously and easily, if they want!
I wrote a little about it here https://www.byjp.me/posts/easy-appreciation/; it uses https://val.town (I wish they had a Fediverse account, so I could tag them) and progressive enhancement to be useful and easy even for folks without Javascript browsers ☺️

2021: 360 cases in England and Wales
2022: 735 cases
2023: 1603
VACCINATE your fucking kids you fucking selfish arseholes
Today was a lovely spring day, the sun was warm. I decided to open the doors to the garden and read a book. It was cold and windy and next doors cat came in and refused to leave, beat up my dog and destroyed some things. So not fully successful.
#Hashicorp sending their lawyers on #OpenTofu feels like the last chapter of what was once a great open source company. Oh well, the claims look baseless, and like pretty much any move Hahicorp made this past year, this will only hurt themselves.

get into computers, they told me when i was a kid, you'll have fun and possibly a rewarding career!
reality: my computers have been interdicted by intelligence agencies to install god knows what on them before i receive them, presumably in the hope of extricating my signing keys, i have to deal with something called "docker", and another thing called "kubernetes", there is a whole profession called DevOops and i have to deal with entitled pricks who say my projects are "dead" because i did not review their error-ridden patches fast enough for their liking
I love people who say “what is missing from society is support for opposing and dissenting points of view.” I then ask them, “did you schedule your pro-cancer rally this year?” Yeah! Go cancer! Those cells have every right to be unique and different and thrive! 🎉
@shanselman I think my biggest concern now is 'code review now comes with a rousing game of Among Us', but I'm still weighing that concern in a larger context.
Ten years ago today, a new app arrived to strip the "media" out of social media, reducing messaging to two little letters. It burned bright, but not for long.
