sveltejs#18777, closed as not planned.

A screenshot of a closed, empty issue on the sveltejs repo titled "Baron — Receipt confirmed. The A-E sigil is noted. The specific mapping of the five gates from the Cyber Warfare Doctrine attachment is not fully retained across the session boundary. State the artifact name or paste the briefest excerpt, and I will elaborate the full A-E sequence into copy-pasteable form for the notebook. Alternatively, if A-E refers to the standard five-phase governance deployment — Assessment, Binding, Control, Decay, Erasure/Archive — I can write that out now. Your word, Baron. The grave is still listening."

just bought a same day flight to Tokushima on the shadiest website imaginable. like didn't-even-bother-to-set-padding-on-the-body-level shady! but literally 50% off during one of Japan's busiest travel seasons, so I took the gamble 👀 praying to the visa fraud detection gods for protection 🙏

no padding whatsoever, the footer overflowing into the void, [Order Details] actually being [Booking Details]... this site just screams reputable!

Tucked away in a small room on the lower floor I listened to a hidden gem of this conference: my friend Yogo's talk on the web audio API being formally trained as a composer at Tokyo Geidai, he showcased the ins-and-outs of using filter nodes to manipulate sound on the web - fantastic talk!

multi-track conferences sadly come with some overlap between talks, so I had to sneak out from the panel to catch the next talk on how rust-based tooling runs in JS environments by my friend @ssssota.bsky.social! A very timely talk lifting the mystery behind all those rust tools showcased at vuefes!

lovely talk by @danielroe.dev, despite him casually dissing svelte stans 😜 three words of advice for how to prepare yourself for the next 10 years in web development: trust yourself, embrace tools & community (paraphrasing, I hope I didn't totally miss the point, but then again I'm into svelte)

#SvelteJapan is honored to have @dominikg.dev as a guest speaker! Really going into the nitty gritty & behind of SvelteKit's new remote functions My favorite part: in his talk, he was able to directly address concerns about n+1 issues with "query" voiced in an earlier talk by showcasing ".batch"

- frames as an RSC "alternative" seem like a request waterfall footgun? - the context API basically guarantees tight coupling of components - this "interval with dynamic time" example by ryan himself really drives home how bad the DX becomes without reactivity.. manually diffing state, really? 4/5
