@jarredsumner @mitsuhiko @bielarusajed How about a build per (top k) locale?

@mitsuhiko @bielarusajed True but I don’t think it builds without at least one locale

since musl/alpine people want smaller builds if we made a 50% smaller Bun binary that only supported American English in Intl.* APIs would that be worth it

This is spectacular. Right on the money. Whoever wrote this absolutely understands our popular culture.

@SnazzyLabs No case life has treated me well for a decade

building on cloudflare workers + NPM packages just got a whole lot easier, with compatibility_flags = ["nodejs_compat_v2"] and by default, starting sept 26... you can see the meaningful difference in the coverage now available here: workers-nodejs-compat-matrix.pages.dev the team's work here, building on unenv really allows customers to have the best of both worlds — using the packages you need, without unnecessary bloat from polyfilling when it's not needed, and without a ton of tedious updates such as adding `node:` which makes it easy to miss. what's also cool is that it's easier to mock APIs that are not yet supported natively or via polyfill. you might wonder if this is useful, but we've found so many libraries over the years that import things without actually using them, so yes, this is a huge unblocker! great deep dive on the previous approaches, and how this makes it so much easier to build, highly recommend taking the team to 🤓

The reason every story on this makes sure to reference her ethnicity in the headline is to make sure that you know that you don't have to actually get upset.

@jasnell @jarredsumner What if you use req.clone() to proxy to multiple origins sequentially? Contrived example: const req2 = req.clone(); const res1 = await fetch(downstream1, req); const downstream2 = await res1.text(); const res2 = await fetch(downstream2, req2);

In the next version of Bun - response.clone() & req.clone() supports ReadableStream - .text(), .arrayBuffer(), .bytes() supports mixed content

@lizisraad @JacobMGEvans Use positive padding to make the tappable area bigger than the element itself and use negative margin of the same value to negate any layout diff input[type=checkbox] { padding: 20px; margin: -20px; }

How did they do this?

@boristane I get @chatsidhartha to stand by a laptop and press send at a specific time. It’s on him to build a slightly more efficient… workflow

what do you use to schedule api calls in the future? say you want to schedule sending an email to a user precisely 63mins after they sign up?

@krupa1i As you’ve mentioned, hard copies come with the problem of staleness. I think digital — but local first — is the best trade off. Then download diff patches. Or redownload the whole updated thing but with tooling that showed you the diffs.

@incon @kenwheeler It was what??!

@kenwheeler Shame the show was cancelled 😢

damn i didn’t know penith was out

Every word of this.

Darren from Reading is the kind of guy who makes you proud to be British…

@jaffathecake This seems solvable without a major perf hit

@jaffathecake Or maybe cheaper to keep a reference counter for each member in the functions scope and decrement when a closure gets GC’d. When a member’s reference counter hits 0 remove from the scope

📝 JavaScript garbage collection doesn't work how I expected when it comes to closures. TIL! jakearchibald.com/2024/garbage-c…

To help explain the weirdness of LLM Tokenization I thought it could be amusing to translate every token to a unique emoji. This is a lot closer to truth - each token is basically its own little hieroglyph and the LLM has to learn (from scratch) what it all means based on training data statistics. So have some empathy the next time you ask an LLM how many letters 'r' there are in the word 'strawberry', because your question looks like this: 👩🏿‍❤️‍💋‍👨🏻🧔🏼🤾🏻‍♀️🙍‍♀️🧑‍🦼‍➡️🧑🏾‍🦼‍➡️🤙🏻✌🏿🈴🧙🏽‍♀️📏🙍‍♀️🧑‍🦽🧎‍♀🍏💂 Play with it here :) #scrollTo=75OlT3yhf9p5" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">colab.research.google.com/drive/1SVS-ALf…

Is it just AirPods or all noise cancelling earphones that make the screeching on the tube 10x worse?

There's irony in the fact that I'm most passionate about things like WebAssembly, custom programming languages, RxJS, etc. and yet I'll be the first to tell you you *probably* shouldn't be using them when you ask.
