Our latest work in @Nature today: #AlphaDev discovered a new faster sorting algorithm that we open sourced to the main C++ library for all developers to use. This is just the beginning of AI being used to find many more efficiencies in code in future dpmd.ai/alphadev-tw

Incredibly excited to announce Web Platform Baseline, an always up-to-date feature set that makes it easy to tell which web platform features are widely available now. Launching on MDN today: web.dev/baseline/ and developer.mozilla.org/en-US/…

OK, real talk. Chrome’s Speed Metrics team is hiring and you should come work with me. Here’s why: If you want to help fix performance on the web, the Core Web Vitals program is the biggest lever you can pull to help us get there. By Far.

All right, added the finishing touches on live WPT results on specs. Just gonna wait for CI to cycle green, then cut a new release of bikeshed for y'all. No action needed on y'all's part, it'll just be better automatically if you're already using <wpt> elements.

I've got a new role (remote friendly) for a senior lead on our DevRel team. The team will build a new strategy for Chrome Dev Summit, our presence at IO, dev feedback and how we launch stable guidance that's not just launching feature after feature. careers.google.com/jobs/resu… 🤙

Web developers, have you recently run into a browser compatibility but don't know where to file a bug? Please file an issue at github.com/webcompat/browser… and I will take a look together with friends at Mozilla. This is an experiment to see if this approach works well. #browsercompat

Flex gap, aspect-ratio, sticky table headers, lots of flex/grid fixes and more in the mid-year update for Compat 2021. I'm happy with this progress, hope that web developers will notice the difference too :) web.dev/compat2021-midyear/

This is the team which led the charge elevating web-platform-tests into becoming the normal way the web is engineered, making interoperability the sustainable default instead of the outcome of heroics. Join us!

Also, come work with me! Actually very, very far from me, but we would see each other on GitHub and Google Meet. Apply if you want to help make the web more reliable for web developers, that’s what it’s all about!

This is my manager, and the job is helping us do testing and interop work! It's primarily Python, with JS/Go xp also helpful, due to the stacks we work with. I'm real excited to get more headcount for this work, because it'll directly help me do *my* job!

The existing history API (window.history, popstate, etc.) is bad for building web apps. We've been working on a proposal for a new history API, and would love your feedback: github.com/slightlyoff/histo…

At Microsoft we're at the early stages of creating generated bindings to the entire Windows API surface (win32, COM, WinRT, etc.) from metadata for @rustlang. That means no longer having to hand maintain bindings by hand. Check it out! github.com/microsoft/windows…
