Had a nice experience switching to primarily use linux at home, what a refreshing sensation tinkering around in it! Most prominently it is fun to use and be creative with, feels like something special that I last remember from experiencing the Windows XP era.. 🐧

Talking to a friend this morning brought this into focus:

The current situation puts lots of people in impossible situations. We find ourselves often with no good choices. What you decide to do in an impossible situation really shows who you are and many people/orgs are failing that test.

Everyone wants there to be a grand scheme behind all of this but the terrible truth is that extremely stupid people are in charge and they have a fanatical devotion to wrong, childlike concepts of society and economics cooked up by right wing radio hosts in order to sell tainted dietary supplements

i'm increasingly convinced that global algorithmic feeds end up spiraling into rage and click baits, no matter the platform. i hope the next wave of social infra will focus on overlapping local and topical communities instead. densely connected peers over amplified stars

I've already released major versions of 24 (roughly half) of the packages I maintain - dropping CJS in favor of pure ESM. Coming soon to my most impactful packages like react-pdf very soon. Go ESM! 🚀

OK, gonna throw this spicy bomb out there.

If you're fortunate enough to have disposable income, then right now it is your duty to use that income wisely. You have agency over how you spend it and you should own how you spend it.

Your decisions do, in fact, affect stock prices of big corporations.

If you think that Europe is doomed, you’re not paying attention.

Wrote a recap of the latest developments and call me a hopeless Europtimist but I think Europe+ (including Canada) isn’t doing too bad in terms of offering Ukraine an actual perspective for the future. With or without the US.
Is Trump Making Europe Great Again?
In a world of zero-sum thinking, the EU's win-win logic can be a powerful tool.

My most favorite thing of trying out new things is giving feedback to the teams working on them ❤️ Dogfooding is great but sometimes you need a pair of fresh eyes to spot the rough edges.

love writing these newsletter issues

even though it might be only a week since creating the demo content, usually always discover a new trick or something whilst writing

this is why you should blog/write/whatever

explaining things you've done to others is usually a win for all
