Cheerio 1.0 is out, only a short seven years after the first release candidate. Read more here: cheerio.js.org/blog/cheerio-1… Thanks to everyone that helped along the way!

@mark__lawlor We are building a design system in Tailwind and are looking to get a native build of the library by swapping out primitives and using NativeWind. Tailwind can produce a CSS file to go with our JS. Is there an equivalent for NativeWind? (Or would the CSS file suffice?)

@mark__lawlor What are your thoughts on building libraries using NativeWind 4? Will it be possible to precompile styles (as NativeWind 2 enabled), or will there always be a need for NativeWind to be included in the consuming app?

TIL that source maps can point to URLs for source files, using the `sourceRoot` property. This allows you to publish NPM packages with source maps, *without* including the original source. For TypeScript, this does the trick:

We’ve had an Amazon Fresh store for a few months now right next to our home. My favorite part of the cashier-less experience is that I don’t feel awkward bringing in groceries from a different store. Amazing for combining trips.

@adamdbradley Very cool! There is going to be some low-hanging fruit left in terms of tree shaking for now, but that can be addressed later. I am also starting to think about a future road map – let me know if there is anything you’d like to see!

I am curious how Telegram emoji codes for calls are generated. This one from last night perfectly summarized the call, before it even happened. And that wasn’t the first time.

@1Password I have considered writing my own app to deal with bank cards on the web. 1Password is already a big step up over iCloud Keychain, as that doesn’t support storing verification numbers. But it still feels like an afterthought of a feature.

Bank card handling in @1Password really has so much low-hanging fruit. (1) Please flag that cards are about to expire. (2) Why aren’t card networks inferred from the number? (3) Why aren’t card numbers validated? (4) And why can’t I just scan my card with my camera?

@patrick_lorio AssemblyScript (assemblyscript.org), which is ~a subset of TypeScript. Great target when your starting point is in TypeScript 😃

I tried to introduce WebAssembly into one of my NodeJS modules today. Tl;dr it isn't ready for prime time yet.

I am genuinely hyped about what's to come with WebAssembly and AssemblyScript. For now, the complexity of calling the module, and the need to use Node >= 14.8, ultimately made me put a pin in this.

I was able to call the WASM-ified module and extract enough information that I do think things work. And yes, the speed-up is dramatic (~80% faster or so, although result extraction is going to reduce that number).
