ah nevermind i just saw this!
bsky.app/profile/dani...

as i see it, the number of downloads i see are simply "how many times was this package pulled and installed".

with the example of vite, where there was a spike probably because of a rogue CI, isn't it still counted as a download?

just trying to understand what the aim of this is. super curious!

Anybody following me that could give this a push?
We're trying to get as many people involved as possible!

Reminder that the first MalmöJS meetup is happening in less than 24 hours.

A few spots still remain.

malmojs.com

I’ll be in Malmö on Feb 25 for the first edition of MalmöJS.

We’ll talk about running Node.js at scale: real performance, backpressure, event loop limits, and systems that fail and recover safely.

i started working on a tool that will generate type declarations from a json schema. it's still a very early WIP, but good lord is it fun.

have a look: github.com/safwanyp/jso...

drop a ⭐, use it and leave some feedback!

we use json schemas to build and enforce contracts. everything starts from a json schema in the team.

the problem is that json schemas cannot be use as-is to get the lovely intellisense when writing code. devs (naturally) don't want to sit and write types after they just wrote schemas.

2/3

one of the biggest challenges we face in my team while in development, is types. specifically, the generation of types.

our server-side apps are written in JS with JSDoc annotations for type hints. lint tools also help with enforcing these types.

the issue however, is creating these types.

i'm helping organize the first event for learning and sharing all things JS in Malmö, Sweden.

Limited spots available. If you are or know someone in Malmö/Öresund region who would be interested, please do share!

Looking forward to seeing you there 🫡

question - how are agent skills fundamentally different from MCP servers?

🔥 NEW BANTER: "Scaling Node.js with the Right Signals: ELU"

CPU utilization is lying to you.

Your auto-scaler adds pods while your actual bottleneck gets worse.

Luca and I explain why ELU is the metric you should be watching.

📅 Feb 4th

curious to know - in cloud native tools like GCP's Cloud Run, is there a way to trick the service into using ELU as a trigger to scale? as far as i know, CPU is what they use and there's no way around it 👀

stay in bed the rest of the day, type of day

this post, printed out

tests are a sign of weakness anyways 😈

the only issue is that if I want to be able to use @kommentar.dev to load comments, i cannot do SSG (afaik).

might have to go with astro's islands. let's see

i want to make it super super super simple and minimal.
no fancy colors or styles.

might add a dyslexia-friendly font into it as well. i don't know if they actually help, so maybe someone else can attest to that.

i am gonna nuke my website repo locally, and start from scratch. I didn't spent too long designing it to my liking and I was fine with it. but now i cannot spend more than 1 min on it without feeling like it could be better.

well to be fair, it's mostly on me cuz i don't follow along the dates/schedules ugh

didn't realize how stressful it is to get tickets to tech confs

alright yeah that makes sense. thanks!

so if i understood this right, the idea is to keep state local to each "component"? by component i don't necessarily mean the actual `.tsx` file, but just the particular module or something.

i'm still figuring out frontend lol

i need to chill with these posts. i'm too hyped from my energy drink

i have to move in 15 days. don't really have a lot of stuff, but damn does packing suck

overengineering really is a thing, and it didn't make sense until i tried to implement CQRS into a simple application I was working on.

the pr to remove that implementation made me feel like i could finally rest.

primes are mind boggling. it's why i want to watch The Prime Target tv show. always seems fun to watch math-related stuff even though my brain is too small for it lol

no opinion sucks here! the "outsider" perspective is always useful imo

anyway, p2p was what I was thinking tbf. keeping the chats public would not be great imo, simply cuz well, people might talk about some private things in chats who knows!

amazing and congrats! now i can start trying lol

okay yeah that makes more sense.
thanks a lot!!! it's definitely something i have been wondering about for a while, but glad to know something like germ exists
