Code example showing how to use module.registerHooks() in ESM

Landed module.registerHooks() in Node.js ✨

github.com/nodejs/node/...

These customization hooks are run for modules loaded by require(), import(), and functions returned by createRequire() in the same thread they are registered, which makes them easier for CJS monkey-patchers to migrate to.

Only vibes and holistic programming. I will see myself out. 🫣😆

The only reason anti-vax attitudes were able to take root in the modern era is because vaccines are so fucking good at their job people forgot why we need them

Go slice and array visualizer: generate diagrams from code Expore the connection between slices and arrays by generating diagrams from Go code.

I'm also still very happy with this visualization tool. It can generate diagram Go slices from source code:
www.willem.dev/projects/sli...

Comes in handy when explaining slices and arrays to people. They can use their own code to play with the diagrams.

Would you look at that. GitHub has added support for Bluesky handles on your GitHub profile.

Any other tools you like?

What’s the menu bar app btw?
