🙋‍♂️ ever wanted to build something without needing to configure a db, auth, file storage or a cms? it turns out you already have all four if you have a bluesky account 👉 airspace is a typed client for it
getair.space

The database you already have.

ever since I had @danabra.mov on the show, I've been helplessly ATproto pilled - so ofc the first component I built to dogfeed @svebcomponents.dev is atmosphere themed! I couldn't have picked a better launch date either, because by xcanceling nitter twitter showed their commitment to a closed web. 🦋

What if TypeScript had an `unsafe` keyword and `as`, ‘any`, and `!` were only available inside of blocks declared as `unsafe`?

Oof, this stings. It really irks me that a for-profit company’s CLI like npm should come bundled in with Node. Corepack felt like a step in the right direction to promote others that have been pushing the ecosystem forward.

One surprising insight I came across while speaking to letters is that the job is mostly contract work with freelancers. One of if not the only full-time paying letterer job in the U.S. with benefits is at Fakku. Yes, that Fakku. I spoke with founder @largehotcoffee.com about it.
Jacob Grady: "The manga industry is notorious for contractor-only work; it's pretty cutthroat. Right from when we started publishing manga 10 years ago, I had a goal to improve the industry and make this a real career for people," Fakku founder Jacob Grady told io9. 
He continued: "All of our typesetters are full-time salaried employees, with health insurance/vision/dental all 100% paid by the company with a 401k retirement plan. The goal is really to make this a long-term career for people, and provide job stability for our employees.

Starship is finally in Ubuntu and Debian's package registry! Simply `apt install starship` on a new system 🚀
Running `apt show starship` in an Ubuntu docker image shows the starship package details.

Shoutouts to Ghostty for including a Nerd Font as a fallback for when users don't configure one! Issues with Starship glyph rendering are a total non-issue 🙌
Running "ghostty +show-face --string", passing a nerd font glyph outputs: glyph found in face “JetBrainsMono Nerd Font”

To help dev-twitter settle in, I made a quick little thing to help find your people here 🤓 It includes scripts to export your GitHub and/or Twitter follows to a file. And then in a localhost app, it allows you to automate searching & following of your social rolodex ✨ github.com/lukeed/blues...
