English doesn't really have a well defined way to write down the "zjush" from the "su" in pleasure.

The most accepted ways are "zh" or "x" in English, or ʒ in IPA.

Since most people call it twitter, and Elon want to call it x, so people push them together to make xitter, because it sounds like "shitter" (the crude term for toilet) and because the quality of twitter has declined dramatically to the point that it resembles an unclean toilet.

What standard library?

JS has only had package/library hell

Who is this article for?

Firstly, it's basically just a repost of existing info from the mozilla article but now with ads.

Secondly, the puppeteer team left years ago to work on playwright which is now the better product, which also supports firefox through the webdriver-bidi standard...

So now I'm wondering... just who was this article for?

There's a whole bunch of pull requests and issues sitting there for a start.

Personally I'd also update the example in the readme and set an engine value in the package.json file.

Nah, sourcetree has annoying bugs that never get fixed.

Use Fork, it's a better sourcetree.

It's free the same way that Sublime Text is: They'll ask for a payment once a month, but you can say you're "evaluating it" and use it for free. If you like it enough, you can pay for it. I have.

I'm not sure what the downsides are here...

Yes but if no one can see what's running inside, it's like walking into an airport asking to go home but you don't know where you live.

  • 50% of web developers: Chaotic Neutral
  • Salespeople: Lawful Neutral
  • Programmers (and the other 50% of web developers): Unaligned, we know how to use shortcuts.

I thought I loved ts-node, since it's a good patch over some annoying issues in node.

But I retried deno a few months ago (after having first tried it when it first came out) and I realised that I only ever liked ts-node, and that I actually loved deno.

Deno just ran ts as if it was ts-node without needing a dependency, or startup time, or any prior setup, and it did it so fast I thought something was wrong. It was great.

iOS still has issues with webm >_<.

Best to use a vp9 webm with a h264 mp4 fallback.

Maybe next decade when the EU creates even more laws, Apple will begrudgingly add av1 support and we can all switch to that.

No competitor?

What about VRChat?

Yes it has a tenth the users, but it's also designed around an expensive peripheral you strap to your face which prices out a lot of users.
