ECMAScript excitement 😉 Congrats to @ashley-c.bsky.social from TechAtBloomberg on advancing the Composites proposal to Stage 2 at @tc39.es today 🎉 Composites are objects that are compared by value instead of identity. They are an evolution of Record & Tuple proposal.
const pos1 = Composite({ x: 1, y: 4 });
const pos2 = Composite({ x: 1, y: 4 });
pos1 === pos2; // true

const positions = new Set(); // the standard ES Set
positions.add(pos1);
positions.has(pos2); // true

Another week, another package: show-keystrokes.netlify.app The native app I typically use to display keystrokes on the screen is disallowed by a corp policy. So I wrote a component to fill that gap. Embed it on your site and you’re good to go.

I have been writing this post about the economics of open source, on and off, for 13 years. I wasn't expecting to end up at "Microsoft should send corporations a huge bill" but nothing else we've tried has worked. seldo.com/posts/nobody-pays-for-ope…

Nobody pays for open source. We can force them to. | Seldo.com
Thirty years of voluntary funding schemes haven&#x27;t paid open source maintainers because asking doesn&#x27;t scale. The real money already flows — to JFrog, Docker, Sonatype — at the registry layer. The fix: registries charge companies for supply (they already do), then route a slice automatically to the maintainers who make that supply worth having.

A NORWEGIAN'S MESSAGE TO MAGA:

Hi

Norwegian here.

A hard thing to explain about social democracy is that we WANT our taxes to go to the 'undeserving.'

Not because we're naive. Because it works.

Healthy people cost less.

Educated people contribute more.

Housed people are more stable.

The 'undeserving' are actually pretty good investments.

But the main point is that in a healthy society there are no 'undeserving.'

There are just people."

The image is of a four panel comic.
The first panel shows Sarah, the protagonist, in bed. A speech bubble coming from her days “sigh”.
The second panel again shows Sarah in bed with a speech bubble reading “the only thing I have the capacity to do today is rot”.
The third panel shows the same scene, but depicts a speech panel coming from out of frame. It says “nice”.
The fourth panel shows a cat, holding a pillow, coming into the frame. A speech bubble from the cat reads, “I am so in.”

A dark day for human rights.
four frame comic. first frame shows the logo of amnesty international. second frame shows jk rowling, smiling in the dark. third frame shows an empty classroom, with a pride poster almost falling from the wall. fourth frame shows a trans flag flying in the wind. text above all the images reads : 
on july 8th, amnesty Inter-
national uk published a report
titled “A Growing Threat: The
Anti-Rights Movement in the UK.”
it listed 117 orgs, including anti-
trans and anti-queer ones
backed by jk rowling.
the backlash was immediate
and brutal : rowling pledged
to cover the fees of anyone
who wished to sue amnesty.
the report was taken down
within 48 hours.
this morning (july 31st), amnesty
fully capitulated and released
an apology to anti-trans orgs,
which, it said, should not have
been "collectively labelled as
anti-rights". rowling
celebrated.
an organisation that
bravely faced fascist regimes
and reported human rights
violations for 65 years has caved
to rowling's power and bigotry.
it's a dark day for human rights.
