I recently switched from a 8GB RAM MacBook Air to a 36GB M4 Pro. Things become much smoother (literally ship 2x more PRs) but I wish someday I can instead optimize my tools and go back to my 8GB Air :/

v5 of Lingui was just released. We've been working to adopt Lingui at Khan Academy and it's by-far the best i18n library around. The use of macros, SWC integrations, deep React integrations, and idiomatic POT/PO file support makes it a huge win. lingui.dev/blog/2024/11...

I see three distinct phases. Pre-Fox, when opinion was diverse but actual facts were indisputable.
Fox/Trump, where objective truth was subjected to the false equivalence of ‘alternative facts’ (ie lies).
And now, where media & tech platform owners collude with him to drown out the truth altogether.

It’s time for THE charger.

Today, the USB-C becomes officially the common standard for charging new mobile electronic devices in the EU.
