We need to start normalizing that software engineering can be a 9-to-5 job. It's ok to not live, eat, and breathe tech 24/7. It's ok to be in tech bc it's a lucrative job that pays the bills. You don't need to be passionate about tech to be in tech.

🚀 #100DaysOfPerf Day 50! This was due yesterday, but left it in draft. Two of my faves were on the @JSPartyFM podcast talking all things #corewebvitals. @anniesullie & @rick_viscomi were busy breaking down LCP, CLS + INP for 90 mins. Enjoy! #webperf

It was so much fun to chat about Core Web Vitals and Interaction to Next Paint with @nomadtechie, @nicknisi, and @rick_viscomi! If you're interested in Core Web Vitals, definitely give it a listen!

This code is likely a very good read y’all! I’m sure it’s mountains more streamlined than npm’s legacy codebase. Very eager to dig in! Still not clear on the business model though, is this just a value add for the deno ecosystem, or is there some direct revenue stream?
JSR source code for frontend+backend, all of our cloud configuration, the docs, and everything else is now open source on GitHub:

We need volunteers to test the new Node.js Website 🌟
Feel free to simply go to beta-node-js-org.vercel.app/… and give feedback on the Node.js Website GitHub repository.
Any feedback is extremely appreciated!
Super excited to see this work land - congrats! What an incredible & monumental effort to redesign & rehaul such a hugely trafficked website with so much legacy code. Some epic blog posts coming — the new site is pretty hot y’all. Strong 2024 vibes. Gradients anyone? 😅💚🐢🚀
This is it. The culmination of 2+ years of work on the Node.js project led to this PR. Effectively once this gets merged, the website redesign will be effectively enabled.
Feel free to see the Vercel previews from the PR whilst it's not merged.

I still can't believe it, but I'm the newest member of the @nodejs Technical Steering Committee. It's a deep honor and I'll do my best to keep Node shine! – at Campobasso, Molise
Hey friends — I’m putting a list of @nodejs community advocates together for the project. I’d love to connect with folks from around the world who you think fall into this category. Who are folks who give talks, write blog posts, do community outreach, teach, etc? DM/tag away 💚

Excellent conversation about React and RSC on @JSPartyFM podcast ! Kudos @dan_abramov2 @nomadtechie and @ericclemmons ! changelog.com/jsparty/311
Ok y'all - I invited Dan & Eric for a deep dive on React Server Components. I was the skeptic, Eric was my counter, & Dan was on the implementors side - the result was an extremely thoughtful, balanced, & nuanced discussion on RSCs. I learned a ton and I'm sure you will too! 🔥

Excited about the JS AsyncContext proposal which introduces an analog for threadlocal in JavaScript's event loop-based concurrency model. While I was at Meta we had some big use cases which would've benefited from this proposal. @littledan
Ahhhh friends, I’m going through a personal renaissance on multiple levels. And for the renaissance that’s most relevant here….my God, what a time to be writing software for the web. Finally caught up on this talk, & holy smokes…

Quite a few people have asked me what HTTP client I recommend for Node.js.
In concert with my frriend @ArrowoodTech, we have prepared a benchmark for you to decide.

Be helpful.
If you get social capital from this, use it to be even more helpful.
Especially to those who aren't in a position to ask.

🤮 The greed is next level.
