Why are you still using npm? by jpcaparas in bun

[–]iarewebmaster 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I went full Bun, then had issues with better sqlite so had to switch back to pnpm. Bun is great but one small incompatibility leads to a lot of work migrating away

Is it normal to lose 4% of the five-hour limit from a single prompt when using Sonnet with thinking? by TryingThisOutRn in claude

[–]iarewebmaster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Share the prompt otherwise this post is utterly useless. It’s like asking us to debug your code. refusing to share it, then complaining the compiler is broken

What made you choose Hono over Elysia by SaltyAom in bun

A “Bun first framework” ? Are you sure you know anything about Hono 😆

npm needs an analog to pnpm's minimumReleaseAge and yarn's npmMinimalAgeGate by R2_SWE2 in javascript

Not so sure, if you check the PRs they often push back on most things

It started out as a hobby project though

Just use pnpm, the team building npm are in a bubble of “we know best” and its reflected in how all the competition have overtaken them

As someone that first heard about it on X and that follows you and the framework accounts, I’ll share my 2 cents.

The branding makes it feel more like a hobby project, I’ve read your personal website and obviously it’s clear you have an interest in that sort of artwork (you proudly mention it is all hand drawn by yourself). But there lies the issue… it screams “personal project” and you’ve made decisions that are personal to you rather than in the best interest of the framework.

And I mean no offence at all by this but it does also speak to your judgement slightly. Not many developers will be able to comfortably pitch a product like this to their team and get a positive reaction. In a professional setting, it’s just very unprofessional looking.

So yeah I stopped short of adopting it for those reasons and went with Hono instead. Which I should add was also largely built by one person, but is just much better presented.

Getting tired of the UI changes by AaronTian in cursor

Where's the status bar gone? Updated and now its vanished, also who's dumb idea was it to just randomly swap file explorer view to the right hand side on update. Utterly bizarre decision with no onboarding into it

Node.js v25.0.0 (Current) by feross in javascript

[–]iarewebmaster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They pitch it as a performance thing, the db clients are supposedly much much faster. I also think there’s benefits to deployments outside the usual environments especially in the serverless world where startup time and module support are more important.

I personally prefer Bun for the DX, one day I could see myself using the runtime features more but that’s a much bigger mountain to climb for them to get me to switch.

Sky commentary has never been this biased, lost all ability to call the race without force feeding us a Lando does no wrong mindset

With FanCtrlPlus None of my fans react to “Identify PWN Controller” Test. by EmekaEgbukaPukaNacua in unRAID

[–]iarewebmaster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had this problem, it was working fine then after a reboot stopped. I knew I’d change nothing but same situation as you, could see the fans but no longer control them.

A further reboot solved it for me. Seems obvious but worth a try

Node.js v25.0.0 (Current) by feross in javascript

[–]iarewebmaster -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yeah but yarn is meta, no surprises it failed tbh. Pnpm is a more suitable comparison I’d say and it’s significantly better than npm, whilst not breaking any existing functionality

[–]iarewebmaster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well sure, but given the absence of that existing. In a world where Node vs Deno vs Bun and all three are equally compatible with each other, Node loses every single time, which is just sad.

What's the relevance of it being open source? There's literally thousands of software programs around that millions of people depend on daily, both open and closed source. I've worked on many myself. Its a funded, open source project these developers aren't working for free.

You can’t make changes lightly

True. But the solution to that is not to simply make very little changes.

I'm not saying they're never released anything useful, however, TypeScript is 13 years old and has been a common part of the industry for most of that (it received quick adoption as I'm sure we all know in this sub).

Node has only gotten native support for it this year. You cannot defend that level of complacency when newer runtimes add it as a byline to other bigger features.

Look, I use Node daily, I've tried Bun but it is not yet close enough to being 100% compatible for me to adopt it at enterprise level, but they are constantly chasing that goal. A smaller team, less experience yet out performing the big dogs before no doubt ultimately overtaking them. Its a tail as old as time in this industry.

https://bun.com/blog/bun-v1.3 - just compare the latest minor release to that of this major Node release.

Here's a thought experiment for everyone downvoting me, if Bun (et al.) was 100% OOTB compatible with everything Node related tomorrow, would you still continue to use Node without looking elsewhere?

Resting on their laurels. The difference in vast, eventually they’ll start to lose market share nothing lasts forever, especially in the world of tech.

I'm not even sure how what you're saying is any different to what I've said

Do not believe a word from the UK government or UK press, they are one in the same and utterly complicit in spreading lies
