That one trick your LLM doesn't know about... Instead of createHash('sha1').update(data).digest('hex') You can do hash('sha1', data, 'hex')

import { createHash } from 'crypto';

createHash('sha1').update(data).digest('hex');

// aaf4c61ddcc5e8a2dabede0f3b482cd9aea9434d

import { hash } from 'crypto';

hash('sha1', data, 'hex');

You can use AbortSignal.any() to combine multiple abort signals. For example, you might want a user-defined abort signal but you don't want to allow any longer than 5 seconds. developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/W...

$const MAX_TIMEOUT = 5000; const res = await fetch(url, { // Stop when any of the signals aborts signal: AbortSignal.any([ AbortSignal.timeout(MAX_TIMEOUT), userDefined.signal, ]), });$

Few understand the power of `git push -fu` (is this anger driven development?)

Did you know that Node.js 22 has glob built in? No dependencies needed. nodejs.org/api/fs.html#...

$import { glob } from 'node:fs/promises'; const files = glob('**/*.md', { exclude: [ '.git/**', '**/node_modules/**', ] }) for await (const filePath of files) { console.log(filePath); }$

😌 "We are revising the behavior on iOS 26 and iPadOS 26. By default, every website added to the Home Screen opens as a web app"

A modal that says "Add to Home Screen" with the caniuse.com as the web app.

Steven ⬢@styfle· Jun 24

Yeah that makes a lot more sense than the home page. Also there already is a banner in a couple places so just move the link there instead of the home page.

About previous releases also has a warning banner

Happy EOL day @nodejs.org 18

Many programming languages have an "getsert" method. TIL there is a proposal for JS Map "getOrInsert" 🤩

let prefs = new getUserPrefsMap();
if (!prefs.has("isDarkMode")) {
prefs.set("isDarkMode", true);
}

let prefs = new getUserPrefsMap();
prefs.getOrInsert("isDarkMode", true);

How is anyone non-technical supposed to figure out if a website is legit or not? We should do better.

What was added in @nodejs.org 17 that bumped the size up so high?

I think @socket.dev has its own problems too. For example, it says "new capabilities" even though nothing changed. Which means I have to audit the entire package again even though I already did and those parts didn't change. github.com/styfle/styfl...

next@15.1.2 new capabilities: environment, filesystem, network, shell, unsafe

I'm not sure when exactly it happened, but sometime in the last 20 years, everyone in the US switched how they count on their fingers, even me. Anyone else notice this change?

A screenshot from wikipedia with 3 images of finger counting. The text below each image says the following:

European starting point: one thumb up.

American starting point: index finger up.

Middle East starting point: one pinky up.

They have so many photos, but not a single one of the road leading to the incident. So I have to assume it looks something like this:
