Ben Michel

My friend.

You empowered us all to make a difference. You challenged the way things were to keep the future free and open. You deeply loved and cared for others. You had the gravity of a star, and all who found themselves in your orbit were better for it.

Goodbye Mikeal. See you on the other side.

Had a chat with @stephenbelanger.com about the import-in-the-middle library, and his team’s recent donation of it to the Node.js Org. We also discussed choosing Observability tools for node-apps, and the current state of performance in node itself. Enjoy!

Rad! Larnell Lewis is on this tour (my vote for world's best drummer rn), I bet it was epic! 😎

😂!!

Oh hi Bluesky!

Going with the ancient swag today.

Hey y'all, another Ben you know and love just made it to Skeetsville 🙌

Welcome @cptdonut.bsky.social (Ben Acker)! 🎉

Apparently, WWDC is about selling hardware too. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Aha! Yeah, it's just a faded memory now. I think there's a couple odd corners in PDX where they cut corners on the carpet upgrade and it still exists.

Welcome to town! Now I'm feeling nostalgic for the old carpet. 💼🧳

On the floor ... On a bag check belt ... On the tarmac ... Where did you try it Paul??

💾! It's fun to see portable hard disks as a novel idea. Maybe they were 'Shaping tomorrow's technology' ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

How about a lifesize cutout of an angry scrum? Just as scary really
