4. I’m glad vercel is investing its resources into a proper native-speed successor to webpack (as it should), and that our work on Vite has pushed this to happen. It’ll be interesting to see how it evolves - my hope is it can be made truly framework agnostic, not Next-first.

After joining @vercel and launching @turborepo, @wSokra presented me with a vision of what a next gen bundler and build system could be. What if there was no distinction? What if you could parallelize and cache work all the way at down to the function level? 🧵

FYI - Shopify now has a bunch of workshops you can take that covers new APIs & functionality from functions to checkout extensions - shopify.github.io/workshops/ Highly recommend the Functions workshop if you’re wondering how to use Rust as it helped everything click for me.

1/3 The anti-hate group @ADL reports on data indicating that at least three elected officials in #Illinois signed up for #OathKeepers, an extremist group whose founder faces seditious conspiracy charges tied to the Jan. 6 riot at the U.S. Capitol. Who are the three?

A sneak peek into the GCP detections we've been building in my team.
ICYMI: at Blackhat this month, researchers discovered "interesting" vulnerabilities in managed postgres. Only GCP caught them.🧵 "[W]e have been conducting similar research across most major cloud providers, but this is first time we were “caught.” Kudos to GCP’s security team!"

If you read only one short story by Rushdie, let it be The Prophet’s Hair. It explains Kashmir, but it also explains the insane damage caused by religious extremists everywhere. All in his beautiful magic realism. Please please survive, you amazing man!!!

This is really grim, if not entirely unexpected: apparently the Instagram mobile app injects additional JavaScript into every page that's loaded using the in-app embedded browser - here's the tool @KrauseFx built to track changes made to the DOM when loading a page

Shopify checkout extensions now allow adding custom fields. 👌 I built an insanely simple but powerful checkout form builder. Trying to balance flexibility with complexity. How's it looking? Need to support grouped inputs. Here's what it looks like:

A friend took his kids to July 4th Parade in Highland Park today. His son has special needs. When shots rang out, they ran for their lives, the dad pushing his grown son's wheelchair--which at one point tumbled over. On America's day, what has become a sickeningly American story.
