Once Chrome does, for many devs, you can simply enforce a version check and say "please use latest Chrome" and be done with it.

Please never do version checks. Test for the existence of the exact features/methods you need instead - this is trivial in JS: if(Temporal)

Checking against version numbers helps cement existing browser monopolies, makes it difficult for new browsers to view websites (even if the browser correctly implements every feature), and encourages everyone to spoof version numbers / browser names which leads to them becoming a less and less useful signal. See any browser’s User-Agent string for an example of this


yep. i had a hell of a time building a scheduling system for a business that worked across timezones with the date API

the new Date() constructor is an amalgamation of like 5 different specs, and unless the input matches one of them, which one kicks in is up to the implementer's choice

won't? i doubt that. can't tell you the last time i paid $20/mo for any non-business sub, but i've paid for some combo of openai+claude for last year


I also built a RAG system about a year back for technical search, everything seems the same!


Rumor has it M6 Pro will be a total redesign. Whether that's a good or bad thing depends on how much you trust Apple to nail a next gen design first try again


when I did startups, we had multiple companies who would not sign deals until our SOC2 was complete


I don't want to do a whole thread about SOC2 here, just wanted to snipe at a bit of marketing messaging. :)

For their market maybe that line works fine. It just trips a security cool kid tripwire.


AFAIK the 757 frame is too heavy to be powered by the LEAP engines. Those planes were powered by a class of engine between the old 737 and 777 engines, and nobody makes them anymore because they're not in demand, so a 757 MAX is just not financially viable.


The article said Boeing is talking to Rolls Royce for the new plane. American Airlines used to have a fleet of 757s powered by Rolls Royce engines assembled in Montreal Canada. I used to work on those engines many many years ago.


You can use the most powerful LEAP engine on a lightened 757 “neo”, it’ll just be a complete dog like the A321 and not a rocket ship like the old one.


Just ‘cause I’m totally ignorant about this stuff: why is that?


The 757 was powered by rb211-535e4 which had about 40k pounds of thrust each.

The 737 MAX is powered by CFM LEAP which has about 30k pounds of thrust each.

The A321 is an elongated/bigger version of the A320. Similarly to the B737 - which also went through this process a few times (e.g. compare the B737-400 vs B737-600 vs B737-MAX) - it means the engines are moving a heavier&bigger plane.


It's called TanStack Start


No RSC support


i am just simply not touching tailwind v3 -> 4. v4 is for new projects only.
