What is making GitHub explode => massive surge of agent based traffic, and I expect the majority if this to be on the OSS/free plans.
What is the reaction: celebrate paid-only git hosting.
The only thing paid-only competition would do is to make GitHub business model harder to justify, worsening what everybody gets for free?

The best thing about node’s built in type support is that workers stop being a pain involving bundlers.
Blind tickets for NodeConf EU are *gone* — but regular tickets are live 🎟️

Many thanks to @julien_c for giving me more space in my HF account :) Soon you'll be some news in the 2bit GGUF model: quality improvements with a slightly modified quants recipe.
We made fetch in @nodejs v26 default to http2 if the server prefers… there are bugs.
People of awkward.
from my layman's perspective it seems node 26.0.00 has a few undici related booboos in it.
if copilot or codex login didn't work for you, update and try again. Tested against Node 22 - 26...

Bun rewrote itself from Zig to Rust.
AI did most of the work.
98% of the test suite passed on the first run.
The question isn't hypothetical anymore. Should we rewrite Node.js in Rust?

The most annoying thing about the AI debate is the implicit suggestion that it's somehow a choice - a choice being made by some tech oligarchy - when in fact development would continue unabated without Altman/Dario/etc.
You could personally decide to not use it - become Amish or whatever. Even if American AI companies as a whole could somehow be compelled to stop work, the Chinese will not. Society as a whole cannot opt-out of AI, any more than it can opt out of computers.

Cloudflare's security team spent the last few weeks testing Anthropic's Mythos against fifty of our own repositories. What we learned about offensive AI, why faster patching is the wrong reaction, and what the architecture around vulnerabilities has to look like next.

The odd part of all that is that Europe in the 60s / 70s / 80s had a similar quality of life for the most part AND a competitive economic / job market / research landscape. The protective layer must be preserved but excellence incentivized as in the 60s.

my company got breached
the attacker had access for 11 days
on day 3 he emailed our IT helpdesk
complained that the VPN was slow
our helpdesk reset his password
upgraded his access tier to fix the "connectivity issue"
and closed the ticket as resolved
CSAT score: 5 stars
we found this in the logs during forensics
the attacker had rated our IT support
excellent

People of More fixes, because undici and Windows hate us!
If pi update fails for you, try manually updating pi via npm/pnpm/whatever you use. Also, you must have Node >= 22.19.0!

Imagine a local agent where cache misses don't exist, tools don't need translations, you see progress for prefill, tokens are emitted ASAP.
In case this is a node that's too new for you: please let us know why.
imo the intersting thing about the bun rewrite (which is dope btw, and you ragers have been reacting embarrassingly), is the possibility of a parallel universe where the node.js team gets a million dollars in tokens and a full time dedicated team

People of The @matteocollina release.
Node 22 is now the minimum node version. Needed to upgrade to Undici 8+ which requires Node 22+. I'm sorry, but also welcome to the glorious future.
Plus a bunch of minor fixes.
