I write code. You can find a lot of it at https://github.com/jsumners. When I'm not doing that, I'm probably riding my bike or practicing yoga. https://www.strava.com/athletes/5096393

Today was one of my company's "wellness" days. With it, I:
1. Took a batch of homemade chili to my guys at my local bike shop
2. Ported my selfcert tool github.com/jsumners/go-...
It was a good day.

Tip: if you want an issue solved without doing the work yourself, don't use an accusatory tone when reporting it. And don't continue to do so when a response is provided pointing you in the direction to solve it.

When someone files an issue stating something to the effect of "when I use this with Next.js" I lose any will to participate. It baffles me why people keep using that thing. It seems to break everything it touches.

@vivaldi.com is there a way to turn off the browser allowing sites to ask for passkeys? I'm not seeing it in the list of global site permissions.

1. enabled "offer to save passkeys" with @1password.bsky.social in @vivaldi.com
2. created a passkey on passkeys.io
3. opened a private browsing session in Safari
4. tried to login to passkeys.io
5. passkey cannot be filled in
Your new req doesn't pass a basic check @npmjs.bsky.social. Get lost.

If every incumbent, and wannabe, APM vendor is hijacking’s the same Open Telemetry entities in order to capture OTEL data, is it reasonable to say that these things are not useful as-is?

Seriously, @npmjs.bsky.social, delay this. Timelines and messaging, at a minimum, are insufficient.
Um, @npmjs.bsky.social what are you talking about with changing everything up on the 13th? If I weren’t terminally online, AND I weren’t helping with a session for next week’s conference, I wouldn’t know anything about it. This has not been sufficiently advertised. Delay it.

It is extremely frustrating that one of the biggest components of the ecosystem is under the control of a seemingly indifferent entity instead of the foundation that supports everything else.
