Oh no, it's really gone π

Definitely worry, I've already launched at least one attack internally
VoidZero sponsorship announcement card with dark purple background. Left side shows the VoidZero logo, a message reading "Thank you for moving the ecosystem forward!" with a gradient highlight, and a $10,000 sponsorship badge with a heart icon. Right side features a profile card for @auvred showing their GitHub avatar and the tagline "Creator of tsgolint".
VoidZero is excited to sponsor auvred for $10,000 as a small thank you for all their contributions that push the ecosystem forward.
Thank you auvred for creating tsgolint and generously offering to continue its development under the Oxc organization.
If you've loved using Oxlint's type-aware linting feature, then please consider sponsoring auvred too: github.com/sponsors/auv...
THANK YOU VOIDZERO!!! π₯π
Auvred is a force of innovation in the web linting space who absolutely deserves this and more. Go check out his work!!
So few companies give even trivial sponsorships back to open source, let alone major personal sponsorships. I'm so happy with VoidZero for doing this π
Congrats to @npmx.dev on launching their alpha!
We share the same vision: making JavaScript developers more productive.
They chose to build on the VoidZero toolchain, and their feedback has already shipped real performance improvements back to the community.
This is open source at its best.

I feel like this change flew a bit under the radar for me and isn't even the featured change in the post, but it's good to see Github wanting to address Low Quality Comments.
When built into the platform, tools like OctoGuide can focus energy on it a little less and focus more on other guidances.
We've released an ESLint and OXLint plugin for preact-signals, most of the current rules are footguns we have fallen into ourselves or have seen the issue often.
Go try it out! github.com/preactjs/sig...
Twice a year I get contacted by someone who believes they've solved open source funding. It's usually a new app or licensing scheme. Both miss the point. Most companies see sponsoring open source as "charity" or an unnecessary expense, and until that changes, no solution will make a difference.

I posted a breakdown of my 2025 income as an independent open source maintainer. π°
tl;dr: it grew 12% from last year, again mostly from a few bigger projects.

Seeing how quickly @npmx.dev came onto the scene and how many developers from different backgrounds came together to build it gives me hope for the future. The real value is always the people and the culture surrounding them.
Oh nice, thank you! I've been meaning to listen to that one this week.

Aha! Finally! My open source -> Lamborghini pipeline is clear. And it's all thanks to AI!
Ooh did the bot net help?
Has anybody experimented with a bot that auto-closes PRs that are clearly (a) AI-authored and (b) not cleaned up by a human?
I'm thinking: if the person didn't take the time to clean up the code, I don't want to waste my time reviewing it.
(but if they did clean up the AI code, I do want to)
π I really, really appreciate it!
Grateful for being part of the first round of the OSS Engineering Fund by @elevenlabs.io π
Thank you for sponsoring me π
fit'n esspecially good content into your podcast
WHOO!!!
I'm stoked to talk with the lovely folks at e18e about open source, performance, linting, and all sorts of things!
Our first guest on the "e18e & friends" show is Josh Goldberg. Streaming on the 10th February at 7pm CET.
very excited for our first guest of the e18e & friends show to be @joshuakgoldberg.com!
He's done so many great things for open source already, so we're super happy to have him join us to chat about what he's been up to lately!
tune in tomorrow π

Yeah I don't think was a "types failed" so much as "using the wrong tool for the job"
