Syncpack 15 adds full support for @pnpmjs and @bunjavascript catalogs. Every catalog and the entries within them can be grouped, linted, fixed, updated, or even banned like any other dependency in your project.

Announcing an early release of Maple Local.
The local, free OTEL Dev tool you and your agent have been looking for.
It allows you to simply start a local running OTEL pipeline to work locally without needing a super heavy container and start ingesting in seconds.
Includes a lot of CLI commands for your agent to hook into to debug traces, logs and even includes Browser session (If using Maple Browser Sessions), as well as a UI to debug visual.
Give it a try, it's fully free and works offline

This has been my stance since I started using AI. It’s easier and faster than ever to build deterministic tools that are orders of magnitude cheaper to run.

AI is a better toolmaker than tool. Almost always better to use ai to create a deterministic workflow rather than throwing a workflow into ai inference and hoping.

Current summary of right wing UK politics:
Conservatives - We've suddenly remembered lots of things we accidentally forgot to do during our 14 YEARS in government that we would definitely do straight away this time, promise
Reform - The Conservatives who messed the country up for 14 years were worried you wouldn't vote for them again so have made another party and are hoping you won't notice it's full of the people who messed up the country for 14 years
UKIP - We still think it's 1998
Restore - Led by a bore in need of a golf club. Been chucked out of Reform for being racist? We're the party for you!

british understatement is unique and i love it. if you work with brits you absolutely have to understand the translation:
"this is probably not ideal" -> this is on fire
"it might be worth reconsidering" -> stop, do not ship this
"i have some minor concerns" -> i have been thinking about nothing else for four days
once you crack the code the feedback is actually some of the most precise communication you will encounter.
