Vitest 4 is out! The added support for spying on classes and that sounds pretty neat.

The only problem is they dropped support for Node.js 18. It uses 'node:inspector/promises' which was introduced in Node.js 19.

So I guess I have to remove Node 18 from my CI matrix?

JSConf isn’t just about JavaScript, but the friends we make along the way. #jsconf

It just wouldn’t have been a JSConf without Ethan Arrowood and @ruyadorno.com. The work they do for the Node.js world is appreciated. #jsconf

Huge thanks to the @vlt.sh team for building something new and refreshing in the world of package managers and taunting me with LEGO to try it out.

Bryan Hughes talking about JavaScript performance. C is really fast compared to JS, followed closely by Rust. Just learned Rust has a swap operation, but it’s slow? #jsconf

Lit is joining the OpenJS Foundation. Apparently it’s the 5th most popular framework on npm? Does anyone actually use it? #jsconf

I’m not sure who puts on a better show: Sleep Token or the fans. I’ve never been to a concert before where nearly everyone sang every word to every song. #sleeptoken

I'm going to 3D print this simple router template. It took me about 2 hours to figure out to export a 2D polyline from AutoCAD as a DXF, import into Blender, configure units, convert to mesh, fill, extrude, export to STL, and export the gcode in PrusaSlicer. What a pain.

Day 31: Another late update. I really wanted to wrap up the captive onboarding flow for new users before tomorrow.

Day 27: Late update, but bounced around a bunch. Had this idea to add a menu item to test the webhook endpoint.
