As much as I don't think every single project or ecosystem needs its own dedicated FOSS foundation... I would much rather that than have a massive swath of the FOSS commons under the auspices of a single organization. I've not been shy about my views that the Linux Foundation has become a dangerous single point of failure. #OpenSource #FreeSoftware #Governance

One of the most useful things I've learned about writing software is knowing when to say "Nah, this is bad", reset or stash my change, and start again. Nothing you write is providing value until it's landed in main, and even that's not a guarantee. Be more comfortable with throwing away your work if it's not right, and work in small increments so you're less attached to your solutions.

@heydon@front-end.social awesome. And if the goal is to provide a “constant reminder”, I want to create a religion that’d promote temple anal plugs. Not sure that they would provide a lot of physical protection, though…

Saying "post-COVID" as someone who is tasked concerned with public health is a fast track to the nope zone. (Here's looking at you, Blue Zones Petaluma.) #SFBA #Petaluma #COVID

We don't like the "SSO tax," where vendors treat a basic security feature like a luxury to charge users for. And yet, we found a whiff of it in our own pricing! So we fixed it: https://tailscale.com/blog/sso-tax-cut/?utm_source=Mastodon&utm_medium=owned-social&utm_campaign=devrel-social

The more I work with specifications and standards, the more I realise the power of accurate and shared vocabulary. This article about OAuth2 terminology is wonderfully short and precise! https://aaronparecki.com/2024/03/29/3/oauth-terminology #linkTuesday

With the recent xz hack in the news, it's crucial to support maintainers of open source projects. Fastly has been doing just that with our open source program, Fast Forward.

What's gonna happen to the grid when we all switch to EVs? I dunno, Greg. You didn't seem all that concerned about the grid when you started crypto mining and using AI to write your college essays.

@www.jvt.me@www.jvt.me you have a blog?! 😮

The problem with trying to sell developer tooling is that developers have no purchasing authority Salesperson needs to spend $1,000? No big deal. Finance needs to spend $100,000? No big deal. Engineer wants to buy a $50 book? They need forms signed from their VP in triplicate.

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("```") ````

Everything you need to know about securing the software supply chain.

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 …

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. 😅

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.
