Every time you update your dependencies and see that your deps tree gets slimmer, there is a high chance you're enjoying the relentless work of James or other folks from the @e18e.dev community that he inspired to get into action. Consider sponsoring him if you care about the JavaScript ecosystem.
just a reminder that i have github sponsors if you'd like to sponsor the OSS work i do.
i maintain quite a few projects, and contribute to many more. nobody other than these sponsors pay for that. so these help a huge amount, however small 🙏
thanks so much to those who already did ❤️

Every open source community has a code of conduct. They would instantly and permanently ban harassers from their repos and chats. Yet many still push their members to X, where they can't do absolutely anything to protect them. Every day it is getting worse. I wonder where they will draw the line?
X has become the Everything App that Elon always wanted, if “everything” means all the tools you need to fuck up someone’s life, in one place. www.404media.co/grok-ai-sexu...
Grok's AI Sexual Abuse Didn't Come Out of Nowhere
With xAI's Grok generating endless semi-nude images of women and girls without their consent, it follows a years-long legacy of rampant abuse on the platform.

my take on what we need to teach devs to push the etiquette in the right direction
The changed code is a small fraction of an open source contribution. Your commitment to understand the issue, how your proposed solution fits with the project, and be ready to own and push the review process forward is the biggest chunk of the work. Your effort is the contribution, not the code.

@tylur.dev wrote a good post about this, collecting experiences from a few other maintainers
This is a new sort of post for me. Trust in OSS is a thing I care a lot about. This post is my attempt to frame AI slop PRs as an attack on trust in open source.

This is the complete, real migration of @mk.gg from the Bluesky PDS to a new Cirrus PDS Worker.
The more boring bits are sped-up to get it under the 3 minute video limit. The real thing took about 12 mins.

I don't think I'll be able to uncrown my top cat pic. I still don't know how they stayed still enough time to take this photo.

The second spot is so random. It got traction because of a combo of my poor english and people thinking I was commenting on the high price of eggs in USA a year ago.
I still can't get used to our neighbors raising pigs and chickens and being able to buy eggs and meat directly from them. Perks of living in a small village.

What are your top posts? By far, mine is a quote from a @hankgreen.bsky.social's video about Bluesky respecting links. Second place goes to buying eggs from our neighbors (?). And way too many cat pics on my top 20. You can use bangers.ryanskinner.com to check yours.
So much this. Bluesky loves links. As @hankgreen.bsky.social says "people click on stuff and they leave the site, they leave! and they read articles!". I love how excited we all are about the open web. Our timeline is healing. Click on the video, and enjoy it on hankschannel! youtu.be/D4ghgVq9z4M

This reasoning is of course exactly backward. Harassers require people to harass, and if the targets of their abuse left en masse they’d likely fall further to infighting as they look for new targets among the remaining users.
