Following the wave, I'm testing out 🦋! I'm @pimterry.fyi. I'd rather see the world join the fediverse tbh, but really any more open platform seems like an improvement, and I suspect at least the bsky API will be far more amenable to cross-posting & integrations than Twitter's.

(it's quite good!). Also I've solved my Fediverse vs Bluesky conflict - turns out you can read & cross post to both in one place with so you don't even have to choose. Adiós Twitter!.

More specifically:. - From April 2025 (v18 EOL), all supported Node versions will support require(esm) with a CLI flag. - From April 2027 (v22 EOL) every supported Node version will support require(esm) by default, and there'll be no need to publish any more CJS/dual packages 🚀.

Node v23 is now out, with require(esm) support enabled by default! (and plenty of other lovely improvements too ofc). Huge day - this means there's a firm path to EOL for all major ESM-incompatible runtimes 🥳.

I avoid ESM in my pkgs due to compat issues, and I'm still going to for a bit longer (Node 18 is not EOL yet, and this is still behind an experimental flag). That said - this is great news, and I'm very very happy to have a clear path now to an ESM world without breakage soon!.

Both Node 20 and Node 22 can now import ESM from CJS with the flag --experimental-require-module. The ecosystem is healing. Time to go all-in on ESM.

This is going to be very interesting. The proposals here are well worth a look for anybody interested in digital ID & what an EU-wide standard for verifiable auth and attribute verification (online proofs of age, citizenship, residency) might look like.

The thing that surprises me most about the whole Crowdstrike mess is that so much key infrastructure apparently runs Windows!. Office desktop machines, sure. But airline backend services? Payment infra?? Hospital DBs???. What happened to the domination of Linux on the server?.
