    All the AI labs are talking about achieving "Artificial General Intelligence" but I'm not able to point them at a game on Steam and beat it. So I'm putting $10k for whoever is able to have an AI beat Gambonanza without prior knowledge and 100% without human interaction.

    I’m so excited to announce that 💯% of the enormous Facebook JavaScript codebase is now using prettier! It’s pretty crazy that it only took a year and two months since the first prettier commit!

    There's lot of excitement around faster pretty printers using Rust. The main issue is that none of them match the long tail of formatting logic of prettier. I'm putting up a $10k bounty for any project written in Rust that passes > 95% of the prettier JavaScript tests.

    The browsers now have all the APIs to do fast video editing, but there's seldom any documentation for it. I spent the last 3 weeks getting re-encoding of a mp4 file to work and documented the hell out of it. Hopefully you can build cool stuff on-top of it

    It took me years to understand callbacks, promises and async/await. I wish that I could have watched this 3 hours (split into few minutes bite-sized videos) training instead. Going to be my go-to suggestion going forward for anyone that asks me for help screencasts.delicious-insights.com/writing-modern…

    This is so awesome, it’s using Yoga for the layout. So you can write margin and use flexbox to layout stuff on the terminal. Mind blown

    🙀 Basic @fbjest UI implemented in Ink 2. All of this is built with React components. Right in the terminal. Reminder: Ink is a tool to build terminal UIs with React. See github.com/vadimdemedes/i….
