Looking for Emacs users to try beta multi-LSP support for Python and TypeScript. Combine multiple language servers in one Eglot session via rass. Astro, Vue, Svelte, Deno, CSS/Tailwind all supported. Would love framework-specific feedback.

Cloudflare announced Markdown for Agents but it's Pro+ only. If your content is already in Markdown, you can serve it from the origin and use a Transform Rule to get separate cache entries on the free plan. https://mwolson.org/blog/2026-02-14-markdown-for-agents-on-cloudflare-free-plan/ #cloudflare #markdown

Released eglot-python-preset for Emacs: bridges the gap between uv's PEP-723 script environments and your LSP. No more "missing import" errors when using uv run with inline dependencies.

Supports ty and basedpyright. Now on MELPA.

I've started a series of posts on how I've improved website performance for contracting work I've done this year. The first is about reducing API payload size: the surprising degree to which that can help, and best practices like "BFF" (backend-for-frontend) to help keep things that way: https://mwolson.org/blog/2025-11-28-performance-reducing-api-data-size/ #performance #programming
