📴🧵 OMGOTMT it's a new episode of Off The Main Thread!

In this episode, @surma talks about Bevvy, an ECS game engine written in Rust, then we take a look at TC39 Stage 3 stuff that hasn't yet gone into browsers, and pick some favourites.

We love Rust at Oxide, but the haters aren’t wrong: builds can be slow. Last night @bcantrill and I were joined by @smklein, @rain and Steve Klabnik to discuss techniques for analyzing and accelerating builds. https://youtu.be/VRcuTbRBKYM

Since web components are popular (finally), I'd just like to mention Bruck ( https://github.com/Heydon/bruck ). It's a prototyping framework made with pure web components (no dependencies). It's actually the predecessor to https://every-layout.dev in some ways, since many layout-related components first appeared there.

Extremist legislators in Tennessee and Oklahoma -- with more right-wing states on the way -- are looking to ban women from traveling out of state for abortions. They also want to imprison anyone who helps them.

Resistance is not futile. This is fascism and has to be stopped.

I know #ActivityPub does not exactly have an official holiday, but on January 23rd (2018) the WC3 gave their official recommendation of ActivityPub, which I believe helped it gain popularity amongst numerous social platforms.

👉🏾 Happy #Fediverse Day! https://darnell.day/happy-fediverse-day

So if you can, raise a glass of gratitude to the five founders of the Fediverse (listed in the link), as without them the masses would lack credible alternatives to the major social networks that exist today.

So tonight, I spent some time correcting all the outstanding TypeScript errors on a personal project, and eventually eliminated all of them.

I felt *amazing*. I even started to think "ok, wow, this is awesome! Maybe I really love TypeScript now!"

But then I realized...my code runs 100% the same. None of the issues left could've ever caused problems at runtime. Literally impossible. They were just editor squigglies.

I think a lot of devs just focus on the feeling, and forget the context.

The trailer for the new Avatar: The Last Airbender show looks decent, but even if the show turns out to be a faithful recreation of the original I'm not sure what for? The original is already perfect. It's still there. Why does it have to be recreated again?

@sophie Hey I just came across your website. The design on it is really dope! I love the background image of the pixel cityscape, the neon lights on hover, and the oldschool font. It all looks really good.

He pulled out of the Iran nuclear deal. Now, Iran could enrich enough uranium for multiple nukes in as little as 2 weeks.

Trump pulled out of the INF and Open Skies.

He didn’t extend New START.

Trump escalated the Saudi-led war in Yemen with the Houthis — which we are seeing the results of now.

Trump assassinated the head of the IRGC (which, to be fair, was a good move)

Trump almost tweeted us into nuclear war with North Korea. Twice.

Trump’s air campaign led to a 330% increase in civilian deaths in Afghanistan.

Multiple special operations troops died in combat during the Trump administration.

Trump was a foreign policy nightmare, and people trying to gloss over that is maddening.
