👋 Proud neocities supporter here,
I got hit (with a lot of EU users) for several days with problems on the CDN (frankfurt PoP). Fortunately, it seems fixed now.

Is there a communication channel to plug into to be aware of any incidents ?
Can we do something on our side ?

Async SSR · sveltejs svelte · Discussion #16784 The Svelte team has been hard at work on asynchronous rendering, with client-side support and remote functions as our first two efforts. It’s time for the third: SSR. Background There are three cor...

Super excited to announce the experimental release of asynchronous SSR in Svelte! github.com/sveltejs/sve...

`await` expressions in your Svelte components can now be rendered on the server, meaning you don't need to render them inside boundaries with a `pending` snippet. Next up, streaming SSR!

One thing that fascists understand well is that social and traditional media are both media and need to be controlled to undermine democracy.

Meanwhile, in camp democracy no government seems to fathom this simple fact let alone act in consequence.

We need more strategy less meekness.

L’organisation Anti-Defamation League a recensé, depuis 2005, les meurtres ou séries de meurtres commis aux Etats-Unis par des membres de groupes extrémistes. Sur 20 ans, une très large majorité des meurtriers (347 sur 371) sont liés à des organisations d’extrême droite. Pour la majorité d’entre eux (262), il s’agit de suprémacistes blancs. Les autres sont principalement liés à la mouvance complotiste et anti-gouvernementale, comme les «citoyens souverains». (Graphique des meurtres extrémistes aux Etats-Unis depuis 2005) Sur cette même période, les meurtriers d’extrême gauche, au nombre de neuf, n’ont représenté qu’une minorité, ainsi que les islamistes (15).

Derrière le puissant récit médiatique qui s'installe aux Etats-Unis (avec la complaisance de beaucoup en Europe), la réalité factuelle est très différente :

« Aux Etats-Unis, 93% des meurtres extrémistes sont d'extrême droite »

I came to like its taste, but can’t drink it too often – a bit too caffeinated for my metabolism :)

(fortunately, not to the point of yellow canarias - whose taste I find rather uninteresting anyway).

My daily runner these days is a blend of Kraus organic and Pajarito (for its frank smokiness).

Which yerba helps you for that ? 🧉

Definitly `uv`. Fast, built on standards, manages deps and python versions.

When I started to seriously use python at work, I initially hated it because of its byzantine ecosystem and shameful lag on reliable deps management, software lifecycle and project management solutions.

La migration que je suis en train de finir, c’est la dernière, toutes mes autres apps sont déjà en v5.
Les runes c’est top, ça rend les choses bien plus explicites.

Quand même quelques gotchas/patterns à acquérir pour faire du state réactif partagé (les fichiers .svelte.ts).

Currently migrating our main big app to Svelte v5 (and tailwind v4).

The Svelte part was pretty straightforward, thanks to the amazing migration helper script (many kudos!)

On Tailwind side, eurgh, it’s much more messy. Profanities were uttered.

It will be finally a two steps process…

Awesome!

The Future is NOT Self-Hosted Hey friends 👋, A few months ago, Amazon announced that Kindle users would no longer be able to download and back up their book libraries to their computers. Thankfully, I still have access to my libr...

Everyone hates AWS (ok not everyone)

but

"Self-hosting is steeped in a vision of an internet that's personalizable, private, and individualistic. A kind of internet suburbia where everyone keeps a server in their garage right next to their lawn mower and their car."

so what's the alternative?

In my job as a demographer and business consultant (yes, I do things beside sharing maps and charts) I constantly come across business owners that are convinced that the loss of some car parks would eat into their profits. Research from across the world suggests otherwise.

What’s a technology that you think is overhyped? I’m going to give a sideways answer to this, which is that the venture capital business model needs to be understood as requiring hype. You can go back to the Netscape IPO, and that was the proof point that made venture capital the financial lifeblood of the tech industry. Venture capital looks at valuations and growth, not necessarily at profit or revenue. So you don’t actually have to invest in technology that works, or that even makes a profit, you simply have to have a narrative that is compelling enough to float those valuations. So you see this repetitive and exhausting hype cycle as a feature in this industry. A couple of years ago, you would have been asking me about the metaverse, then last year, you would have asked me about Web3 and crypto, and for each of these inflection points there’s an Andreessen Horowitz manifesto. It’s not simply that one piece of technology is overhyped, it’s that hype is a necessary ingredient of the current business ecosystem of the tech industry. We should examine how often the financial incentive for hype is rewarded without any real social returns, without any meaningful progress in technology, without these tools and services and worlds ever actually manifesting. That’s key to understanding the growing chasm between the narrative of techno-optimists and the reality of our tech-encumbered world.

Oh the never ending butt jokes

tout fonctionne (y compris l’optimisation et les variantes responsives des photos), mais j’ai encore un truc pénible qui coince dans la compilation vers customElement (« web components »)

Sinon, j’ai un side-project d’une app web local-first, sans serveur (sur laquelle il faut que j’essaie vos tuiles d’ailleurs…).
l’objectif est de permettre à l’utilisateur de générer le kit pour publier un voyage vélo (trace geo, photos, métriques sportives) sur un site (quelque soit la techno).

ok, merci!
Quel routeur avez vous utilisé sur la dernière version ? (brouter ?)
