    You can get anything custom made in China to order. I got a chinchilla cage there. They asked what grade of metal, wood, glass type i wanted. Then they found it i needed to ship it here to the US (its a fully assembled piece) so they rebuilt it and built a custom housing for it

    Python is without doubt the worst language ive ever had this displeasure of working with. Its not even the language, its the piss poor dependency, env, and version management. When ur 8 venvs in, u know we've fucked up as a society.

    This thing is like the Sistine Chapel of chinchilla cages.

    Big Announcement: I will be releasing all my Module Federation Work for Next.js as open-source projects. This includes nextjs-mf and nextjs-ssr, which will now fold into one single plugin to offer the community both SSR and CSR support. This is being done for the greater good 😍

    There’s a full port of webpack to rust underway. It’s Not turbopack. In real world builds it’s about 10-20x faster than webpack.js. Apperently the plugin apis are unchanged too. There is a god.

    🚨Big Announcement 🚨 No, I’m not joining Vercel :/ HOWEVER. Federated SSR comes to Edge Workers. But it’s not just SSR… it’s code streaming! That means full scale support for any federated code, at runtime, right on the edge, with no origin servers. This is a big deal 🧵

    Well at least Vercel finally uttered the forbidden words. Pity the information is wildly distorted. Makes UX worse? Performance worse? My next apps have half the cold start when federated vs monolith. Fully load in 500ms. Time to write an article 🤩
