Shinkansen to Osaka somehow managed to be 3x more miserable than an Amtrak train because of the rude tourists.
I didn't have that on my bingo card when traveling here.

@kettanaito.com do you have thoughts on mocking API calls made within a CF Worker? With CF's new Vite plugin the dev environment is now full wrangler/miniflare and my code isn't compatible with Node even for testing.
My backup plan is to make a separate service running MSW, but I'm lazy :)

Question of the day:
Should I use a good old OCR tool that runs locally... Or increase my carbon footprint and use a datacenter full of nvidia graphic cards to do the same task?
Answer: Claude goes BRRRRRRR!

Thirty-three days ago, we released Clair Obscur: Expedition 33.
Since then, we’ve sold 3.3 million copies.
Seriously. As of today.
We couldn’t make that up.
Another entry on the long list of surreal moments that your support has made real.
Thank you ALL.

Do you remember when people were complaining about the frontend ecosystem and how things moved too fast, with new tools and libs popping up everyday? How it was too hard to keep up?

I've written thousands of tests. Never have I looked at a test and thought "wow, this test is so smart, it abstracts so much, I love this."
Don't write smart tests. You have your app to be smart. Tests are for expressing the intentions, and a good test is, above all, readable.

A disabled person might be “able” to do one thing on one day.
Maybe they wanted to.
Maybe they had no choice and had to.
What it does not mean, is that they’re suddenly able to do it all the time, or that it’ll be “easier next time”.
“Able” is repeatedly, reliably, and safely.

If you like Final Fantasy and you haven't given Stranger of Paradise a shot, I highly recommend that you play it. The game got meme'd on a bunch because of the Chaos stuff, but it's an amazing game. It also has great music by the Final Fantasy XI composer Naoshi Mizuta.

Here are the performance targets planned at launch! PC players: performance will be improved similarly, and we are investigating lowering the recommended GPU requirement.
We are also exploring releasing a standalone free hardware benchmark tool.
Stay tuned for more info.

Hitstop and weapon attack sound effects will pack a greater punch in the full version of #MHWilds! You'll feel the impact and responsiveness of attacks much more, especially for big moves and finishers.
Here's a work-in-progress video showcasing the changes with the Great Sword.

Hi! Here's an example of testing React Server Components in Next.js using MSW and Playwright: github.com/kettanaito/...
This is how I see reliable RSC testing going forward. No emulation, framework-agnostic, isolated by default. Give me your feedback!

Which is technically a controlled e2e test.
Even before RSC, "e2e" had a blurry definition. To me, it depends on where you draw those ends. You can test your client end-to-end, which means your code runs, routing runs, your framework runs, all in the real (browser) environment.
