Today Igalia turns 25. Ten engineers started it in A Coruña in 2001 with no investors and no managers. There are now close to 200 of us, and everything we build still goes upstream. igalia.com/2026/09/21/T...

This was the first Rust library implemented in V8. They finally passed all of the Temporal tests this year in January! So they have full support. So it's now out on Firebox and Chromium and it's coming to Safari and Node 26. #SotB26

The TC39 committee realised this is a huge undertaking and probably biting more than they can chew. They realised they needed to work on it full time. It ended up having a lot of spec champions including Jason. #SotB26
