🎉And all of ES2023 is available now in XS, Moddable's JavaScript engine! If your Embedded JavaScript project needs to mutate an Array while copying from ROM, search an Array in reverse, or use a Symbol as a WeakMap key on a Raspberry Pi Pico or ESP32, we've got you covered.😉

Brian Jacques (Redwall) published his first novel at 47. He wrote 22 beloved middle grade novels before he died.
Alan Rickman didn't appear in any films until he was 42.
Creativity seems like a game that needs to start early but it's not.
You have time.

I am here to ask for your help, my girlfriend is going to get an FFS (Facial feminization surgery) and unfortunately that's the one surgery in gender-affirming care the Portuguese health system does not cover.
Any help is appreciated ❤️ 🏳️⚧️

CEO pay was up 21% in 2022.

🤔 I count myself as a DO fan because they are not the bigger companies but this is certainly some toxic AF behavior from a company.
That said, this is the playbook that big tech is playing by.
How much profit is enough? It's not 100s of millions and it's not 10s of billions.
I thought I was pissed about the @digitalocean layoff yesterday, but then I read the earnings call from this morning. Here's the highlights.
* Revenue grew 34% YOY last year🤔
* Approval to buy back 500 million stock
* Already bought back 600 million worth of stock last year

Rest in peace, Brianna Ghey 🤍
Brianna deserved a chance to become a beautiful adult woman, and to live to see a world where trans people are safe and respected.
Anyone in the media who is using her deadname and erasing Brianna’s identity should be ashamed of themselves.

At @ShopifyEng, @saulecabrera, Jeff Charles and I are working on Javy, a tool to compile JS to WebAssembly. We are using it to bring JS to Shopify Functions, but kept Javy itself as a generic JS-to-Wasm tool!
Curious how it works? Here’s a tech deep-dive:

Twitter already had a $400m paid API business with $360m(ish) in profits. This API provided real value to large enterprises. They fired the entire team so that business will go to $0 soon. Now they are going to charge a few dollars to developers who have no money. Sound trade.

heres thing about buying video game from loud anti-trans mouthpiece. you CAN do that if you want, technically speaking, but other buds CAN ALSO THEN point out you are not being their ally. the real price of your game is: $70 plus the respect of your buds. thats your call to carry
