Stoked to be speaking alongside some truly rad folks today at Moar Serverless! https://cfe.dev/events/moar-serverless-2024/

Catch my talk about https://aws-lite.org at 12:25 PT / 15:25 ET

Today I released v1.0 of `tap-arc`.
@arcserverless 's #Nodejs TAP reporter.

It offers a spec-like output, complex failure diffing, streaming, Dune references, wild Windows bug handling, and more.
All under 30kB.

Feedback very welcome!

So after ADB and AT and RS232 and PS2 and parallel and serial and all the SCSIs and USB-A and FireWire 400 and FireWire 800 and mini-USB and micro-USB and all the VGAs and DVIs and DisplayPorts and Lightning and Thunderbolt… after all that, surely USB-C will be the very last time we’ll all ever have to switch connectors and bin our cable collections.
