On a 3h bus journey:
Some a-hole blasting music out loud from his phone speakers.
And you can’t say it’s ”just young people”, this one for example is some middle-aged MF.
This behaviour is nothing new, but the lack of respect & consideration for other people these days makes me angry as hell 🤬

fully-tested versions of 16 commonly-needed codecs are available on the new Codecs page. you're encouraged to copy/paste/customize them as needed 👍

Russkies shouldn’t be able to set up any companies in Finland – while they are attacking a sovereign nation in Europe – much less a data center and an internet exchange point.

The semver library used in npm, yarn and pnpm could be made 33x faster.
Ran into that while wondering why running `npm install` takes so long on the Preact repo.

During the installation process, package managers run a bunch of semver comparisons. The semver library used in npm, yarn and pnpm can be made around 33x faster.

Got #iOS26 on my iPad Pro…and it feels like a skeuomorphic step backwards. It’s early days, but it feels like Windows Vista on an iPad. I tend to be optimistic, but this is not the direction that I thought design was going this late into the 21st-century. WE WANT LCARS

I really wish Disposables were inherited through closures. But that's not the case. You have to dispose of them manually if you wrap them in a function.
This will be solved with disposable stacks though.

Standard Schema is a specification (a TypeScript interface in fact) not a library.
It was designed collaboratively by myself (creator of Zod 👋), @fabianhiller.com (creator of Valibot), and @ssalbdivad.dev (creator of ArkType).
It’s the final form of something I tweeted nearly two years ago.

Introducing Standard Schema! It’s a specification for a standard interface to be implemented by TypeScript schema libraries. The goal is to make it easier for frameworks and tools to accept user-defined schemas, without writing separate adapters for different libraries.
