Look what they did to Notepad. Shut the fuck up. This is Notepad. You are not welcome here. Oh yeah "Let me use Copilot for Notepad". "I'm going to sign into my account for Notepad". What the fuck are you talking about. It's Notepad.

React is load-bearing in most orgs in the sense that it's what binds terrible choices together tightly enough to keep them from being individually evaluated.

Adam is the brightest, most authentic, inspiring, truly creative, high performing, deeply passionate, and nice person I have ever worked with.

And then my employer decided to terminate his role.

I am gutted and sick to my stomach.

I will miss you, my friend 💔

In 2025 all our UI tests will finally run in a real browser again for the first time since Karma was replaced by JSDOM.

I'm so here for this.
Running eight component tests for a complicated form in a *real browser* (!) in 768ms? This changes my stance on mainly using a mock DOM environment for testing!

@vitest.dev Browser Mode is a true paradigm shift!
