Is anyone else noticing a tonne of spam notifications on @github.com in the last few days?
The spam issues don't show up in my "GitHub Inbox" though they still show in the notification count. This is very annoying as it makes staying on top of GH notifications challenging.

I’ve now got @baselinebot.bsky.social running nightly and posting new features. Now I just need some new features to get published so I can confirm it’s all working!
Also, Deno Deploy has been great so far. Thanks @deno.land!

Hmm, looks like the first run with the @baselinebot.bsky.social cronjob didn’t work. Will take a look and see what’s up tomorrow!

Hard to see in this photo but a heart warming moment this morning. Busy commuters going downtown stopped to let a pair of geese cross the road. 🪿❤️🚗

Just whipped up some blondies to bring to the kids school. We got some mini-eggs on sale after Easter and used them to decorate! 🥚🐰🌷

Lynxjs seems to be working as advertised! Quickstart was painless.
Will need to build a real app to get a better understanding how it works though.

I’m fully engrossed with Monument Valley right now. The art style and soundtrack just sucks me right in, and the puzzles are fun and creative to solve. Worth trying over the holidays for sure.

Someone is having fun with these completion screens. Got this one this morning. I’m calling it a, “Duocorn” and it is my new favourite.

Ok JS devs, does anyone know if there's a way to get `yarn outdated` to only show major package updates?
(These are the red updates that usually have breaking changes.)
Everything I'm finding suggests manual review is only way! It's not even in the JSON output.

Excited to see a new version of this fantastic JavaScript book.
Many years ago I remember it was one of the first books to really help me understand how to think about programming in JS, so glad to see it’s still going strong. And still free online! 👍🏻

The CRA (Canada Revenue Agency), which is part of the Government of Canada that collects taxes, has been kicked off Twitter and had their account suspended on FB multiple times. They’ve even had tweets deleted! Time to try Bluesky?
