Sadly, we’re no longer able to reliably update Mammoth or operate moth.social at the level we want. Therefore we will be removing Mammoth from sale on the App Store. By the end of the January, we will also shut down Moth.social along with our other project, sub.club. If a community member would like to take over maintaining any of these projects, pls let us know.

if you read the new Redis license, sure, it’s not BSD, but basically as long as you don’t sell Redis as a service, you can use it in very similar ways and with similar freedoms as before (what I mean is that you can still modify Redis, redistribute it, use Redis commercially, in your for-profit company, for free, and so forth). You can even still sell Redis as a service if you want, as long as you release all the orchestration systems under the same license (something that nobody would likely do, but this shows the copyleft approach of the license).

Of fantasy. We are talking about some type of Ernst Stavro Blofeld type of guy. The hardest of hard targets. Brilliant from start to finish.

Things you forgot (or never knew) because of React - Josh Collinsworth blog :: Jesse Tomchak —

React falls behind in terms of performance (and here I mean both bundle size and execution speed) by factors of 2 or more in many cases. (The bundle itself can be by 10x or more.) The latest run of the JS web frameworks benchmark places React’s performance, on average, at almost 50% slower than Solid, 25% slower than Vue, 40% slower than Svelte, and 35% slower than Preact. (Other frameworks weren’t available in this particular test.

Starting today, as an early developer preview, you can use OpenNext to deploy Next.js apps to Cloudflare Workers via @opennextjs/cloudflare, a new npm package that lets you use the Node.js “runtime” in Next.js on Workers. That’s excellent. An alternative to having Next.js deployed on Vercel is great for everyone.
