ghgrab is a TUI tool for downloading files from Git repos without cloning the whole repo. You can browse GitHub, GitLab, Codeberg, Forgejo repos, preview files, batch download folders, grab releases and more. Abhinav made ghgrab using @ratatui.rs & is Terminal Tool of the Week! ⭐️

Just added standard.site support to my own blog today. Also tried out pckt.blog, love the concept. I'm wondering if there's like an RSS reader equivalent for atproto-enabled blogs? Can we somehow bring back Google Reader and its social aspects with this?

standard.site

Standard.site - One schema. Every platform.

Standard.site provides shared lexicons for long-form publishing on AT Protocol. Making content easier to discover, index, and move across the ATmosphere.

I only contributed to ESLint briefly but very intense during those months and I learned SO MUCH. It was the project that introduced me to ASTs properly and making me not afraid to touch them. Thank you @humanwhocodes.com :)

13 years ago today I made the first commit to the ESLint Git repo. It’s hard to believe that this project I cobbled together in my spare time over a couple of weeks is still going strong. I’ve been doing a lot of reflecting over these years and the journey it’s been. A thread.

With the right skills, AI is great at finding vulnerabilities. Sentry developed Warden to automate this, and used Home Assistant as a test bed. Our admin/user role split has been a work in progress for years, and Warden just flagged all the places we missed. Neat! cra.mr/finding-vuln...

Finding Vulnerabilities with Warden

We found 100+ vulnerabilities with Warden across Sentry and a few big OSS repos—here’s how we scope skills, iterate locally, and run it on PRs.

I was looking for a way to reduce our binary size for Sentry CLI. It uses `bun --compile` which is quite large at ~100MB. After some research, realized that it ships with ~30MB ICU data for locale operations that we will never do.

Burak Yigit Kaya @byk.im · 02/02/2026

I was *very* skeptical about Bun, then did my research, learned why it was created, chose it as the base for the new Sentry CLI with Miguel (x.com/miguelbetegon)

Everytime I travel, I have to use my IEMs. Like them but finding good tips was always a struggle. I like foam tips the best but they get very itchy after a few hours and putting them in an out are a hassle. Foam tips are nice but they get slippy and fall out after 30 mins as my ears get warmer.
