Mozilla Brings Web Serial Workflows to Firefox, Collaborates With Adafruit
The Web Serial API lets websites write to (and read from) serial devices using JavaScript, including USB and Bluetooth devices with virtual serial ports. And this week’s Firefox 151 release introduced support for the Web Serial API on desktop.

“Most folks won’t use this API,” acknowledges Mozilla’s blog, “but for our community … ⌘ Read more

White House App Is a Terrifying Security Mess
New submitter spazmonkey writes: From a hidden GPS tracker polling your location every 4.5 minutes to JavaScript loaded from a random GitHub account, no SSL certificate pinning, and an in-app browser that silently strips cookie consent dialogs and paywalls from every page you visit, the new White House app seems to have a little bit of everything. A security researcher pulled the APK a … ⌘ Read more

@bender@twtxt.net Correctamundo! In this case, it’s available for the browser as a single (optionally-minified) JavaScript file, or for Node via NPM (as JS) and JSR.io (as “native” TypeScript).

I had to do it that way because I wanted a library I could use in both an Express server (for TwtKpr and TwtStrm) and the browser (for my website and… TwtStrm).

Hopefully, I’ll have more to share about those other projects soon…

In-reply-to » New library alert => Last night, I published twtxt-lib, a new isomorphic TypeScript library for parsing and interacting with twtxt.txt files. Check out the demo at https://twtxt-lib.itsericwoodward.com/!

@prologic@twtxt.net so…

An isomorphic TypeScript library is a codebase, written in TypeScript, that can run in multiple JavaScript environments, most commonly both the web browser (client-side) and a server (like Node.js). The core idea is to share the exact same code across the frontend and backend, avoiding duplication and improving efficiency.

Is AI Impacting Which Programming Language Projects Use?
“In August 2025, TypeScript surpassed both Python and JavaScript to become the most-used language on GitHub for the first time ever…” writes GitHub’s senior developer advocate.

They point to this as proof that “AI isn’t just speeding up coding. It’s reshaping which languages, frameworks, and tools developers choose in the first place.”

I’ve rebuilt ntfy with the web interface, though it took me an hour or so of JavaScript dependency hell and a certain library whose native interface doesn’t have support for NetBSD

On Linux:
  • Step 1. Clone ntfy repository as usual

  • Step 2. export NODE_ENV=production

  • Step 3. make web-build

  • Step 4. Make a tarball with the generated assets and copy it over

On NetBSD:
  • Step 5. Repeat the above mentioned first step

  • Step 6. Unpack the assets into server/

  • Step 7. Build backend with make cli-linux-server

  • Step 8. Done

The result is right here

In-reply-to » One day I'll like to elaborate why I'm against the usage of Anubis (and its derivatives) for the rampant crawlers

@shinyoukai@neko.laidback.moe I’m mostly against it because it forces Javascript™ on the client(s) at a blanket level. Doing “Proof-of-Work” explicitly IMO is fine™, but not at an Ingress/Edge level IMO – Which is why I haven’t adopted it myself.

ProcessOne: Stop Telling Us XMPP Should Use JSON

Image

We hear this too often: “XMPP uses XML. It should use JSON—it’s more modern.”

The logic seems straightforward: JSON came later, so it must be better. But better for what, exactly?

JSON became successful because it’s the standard serialization format for JavaScript. That made it convenient for browser-based applications.

** Answering some questions about Baba Yaga **
My previous post found its way to Hacker News; I don’t have an account there, but a commenter asked a few questions that I thought I could answer in a follow up post.

Baba Yaga uses call-by-value evaluation, not call-by-need (aka“lazy”).

Nginx 正式擁抱現代 JavaScript!
