> Bun has far more bugs and compatibility issues than anyone will admit. Node still has too much friction around TypeScript and ECMAScript modules. I only use deps that support Bun like Hono and …

I'll believe it when I see it.

There are rumors iOS 27 will be a sort of Snow Leopard update with no new features [1]. Just bug fixes and performance improvements. Hopefully Apple will do the same for macOS 27. [1] https:/&#x…

So this basically makes the Estonian e-residency program obsolete?

Absolutely. I'm not against animations in UI design but these should be used purposefully to direct the user's attention on something or for minimal aesthetic effect. When everything is movi…

You still need to pull 13 extra deps that could be compromised.

Not a priority for the Node team, unfortunately.

> but it seems odd given that it means having to keep up with new features in those DBMSes That would be more useful for the ecosystem than the Node team investing time on a virtual file system.…

Until the day it gets pwned by a malicious actor. Which is something we've seen quite a lot of times on npm deps.

It's still provided by Microsoft. They are responsible for those first party drivers.

I think you're confusing the database engine with the driver?

Bun, .NET, PHP, Java

Bun provides native MySQL, SQlite, and Postgres drivers. I'm not saying Node should support every db in existence but the ones I listed are critical infrastructure at this point. When using Postg…

I agree about the governance and long-term sustainability points but if you don't see any value in Bun or Deno is probably because (no offense) you are not paying attention.

The Node team has lost the plot IMO. By far the most critical issue is the over reliance on third party NPM packages for even fundamental needs like connecting to a database.

I was excited about a Reddit alternative. I signed up months before the public beta. When I tried the public beta the new Digg website turned out to be a terribly bloated and slow NextJS app. Used it …

System wide permissions 24/7 even when you're not configuring the USB devices?

It's super inconsistent across devices and implementations. I've had so many issues with it over the years. I've had headphones where a slight change in the environment around me while …

The Logi Options app is such a piece of crap. On macOS it also requires special permissions otherwise it won't even work. If you only need to connect a device to the Bolt adapter you can use this…

Very cool. Hopefully there will be an adapter to run this outside of Cloudflare.

You could probably replace all those machines with a Mac Mini or even a Raspberry Pi.

Vite has been such a game changer for doing frontend. I never really want to do frontend without it ever again.

I spent 2024 and 2025 trying all the big fullstack monolithic frameworks (Laravel, Rails, .NET, Django). There are differences of course but they all suck so much for doing frontend. In part because f…

What manufacturer would prefer to not sell millions of TVs?

> Why wouldn't they? Plenty of places in the world with bad connectivity or people who can't afford an ISP.

For a couple of days I had a Surface Book 1 before returning it. The keyboard was really good but otherwise just a terrible device and experience. The touch screen was completely useless. Super laggy …

Nobody really knows but the simple fact is these companies are not making any profit. Far from it.

Excellent comment. I would only add two points. I think it's important to mention the effects we're seeing today are caused by the emissions from decades ago. Second, not sure if the paper i…
