There's so much spam across mastodon servers now. Incredible:( even blocking domains isn't really slowing it down

Very proud to see "Baseline" launch - a view on what is supported across browser on the web each year - amazing work from the Web DX community group.

https://web.dev/baseline/ and you can see it in action here: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/@layer

Looking forward to the federation if it happens.

Does anyone have any OpenAPI (in JSON ideally) documents?

I'm looking at testing something but I'd like a relatively simple API to work with first.

Has anyone got any experience using native fetch in Node?

Every time I try and use it I get "throw new TypeError(context + " is not a ReadableStream.");
^

TypeError: First parameter has member 'readable' that is not a ReadableStream."

Very impressed with Chat GPT's code interpreters ability to parse MDN Browser Compat data and then query it.

It makes some mistakes because the data format is... interesting.

The popover API lands in Baseline

Exciting update for web developers - the popover API has landed in all modern browser engines. This will allow developers to more easily create contextual overlays on their sites. I'm looking forward to seeing the creative ways devs leverage this new capability to enhance user experiences.

79,000 weekly downloads of the User NPM package... https://www.npmjs.com/package/user?activeTab=code

I suspect every single one of this was a mistake where a person did npm add user when they meant npm adduser.

First time staying in Gloucestershire. It's lovely.

We're in an old 19th century mill in the middle of the countryside and it's a bit of a home from home. Lovely.

Watching my wife deal with the japanese tax web site.

Issues we've hit so far:

  • Fails to load if the keyboard layout is "wrong".
  • Fails to work if your language in the browser is "wrong"
  • Can't use it after midnight or weekends.
  • Doesn't work in Chrome and you have to use Safari. Fails to load in Safari!

node js question - why when running npx [some bin] from a folder somewhere inside another nodejs project set the process.cwd() to the project directory root and not the actual directory I am in?

Huh polyfill.io got sold. Probably advisable to make sure your sites are not using it.

Global Entry in Miami was incredible. Just scanned my face, didn't show my passport and they called my name and waved me through.
