8yo wanted to try a difficult hiking trail "just to see what its like". i said we could turn around whenever we wanted. luckily i brought 3L of water and plenty of snacks because we made it to the top!

then i ran `npm stage approve` and here's what the npm registry returns. note that there is an install script set to `node-gyp` rebuild.

a screenshot of a curl command showing the manifest for the manifest of the same package. there is a scripts.install with a value of "node-gyp rebuild"

if the npm CLI detects a binding.gyp file in the cwd, it will add a `scripts.install` to the manifest, but not the package.json in the tarball so i staged a release adding a binding.gyp file and here's what drydock shows me

a drydock staged review screenshot. it says a new binding.gyp file, some package.json version and files changes, but not script changes

absolutely perfect first two replies that mirror the debate in my house

two replies to the quoted post about if there is too much frosting on cake. one reply is "no, of course not, there never will be!" and the other is "Way too much"

luke karrys@lukekarrys· May 1

settle a debate for me: is there too much cream cheese frosting on this carrot cake?

i’m 40 🎉 i went an early bike ride where i rode 40 miles to draw the number 40. my kids thought it was cool and weird

a mountain at sunrise in the distance. the sky is a nice shade of yellow and the mountain appears pinkish. there are some trees and houses in the foreground and part of a bike path

a strava screenshot showing a gps route that does a pretty good job of showing the numbers 4 and 0. it also shows the stats from the ride: 40.12 miles, 528ft of elevation gain and 2h 41m of riding time. the same sunrise from the previous picture is the background

can you use the graphql API? i did a quick test and it looks like it's available there but not via REST (many such cases...)

is this slop?

a screenshot of a highlight from the cubs dodgers game that says “Nico Hoerner solo homer extends Dodgers to 10-0”. in reality the highlight shows Hoerner’s home run making it 9-2 because he plays for the Cubs

luke karrys@lukekarrys· Mar 4

some of the best slop i've seen. i love the comment in the function body especially

$A code snippet that reads: /** * Validates a tarball buffer * @param {Uint8Array} _tarballBuffer - The tarball buffer to validate * @returns {boolean} True if valid tarball */ export function validateTarball(_tarballBuffer: Uint8Array): boolean { // Basic validation - could be extended return true }$
