XML is better than YAML
The fact that JSON doesn't support comments is so annoying, and I always thought that Douglas Crockford's rationale for this basically made no sense ("They can be misused!" - like, so what, nearly anything can be misused. So without support for comments e.g. in package.json files I have to do even worse hacky workaround bullshit like "__some_field_comment": "this is my comment"). There is of course jsonc and JSON5 but the fact that it's not supported everywhere means 10 years later we still can't write comments in package.json (there is https://github.com/npm/npm/issues/4482 and about a million related issues).

Jest not recommended to be used in Node.js due to instanceOf operator issues
Things like the sparkline charts on npmjs (e.g. https://www.npmjs.com/package/npm ) are interactive SVGs. I think they're pretty common for data visualizations of all kinds

JavaScript registry NPM vulnerable to 'manifest confusion' abuse
I actually did a POC 7 years ago about this - https://github.com/tanepiper/steal-ur-stuff
It was reported to npm at the time, but they chose to ignore it - https://github.com/npm/npm/issues/17724

I'm a Teapot
Every time this pops up, I'm reminded of the day that the NPM registry started returning 418 responses.
I remember being at a training course that day and my manager asking me what we could do to fix it because our CI was failing to pull dependencies from NPM.
Trying to explain that NPM was returning a status code intended as an April Fools joke and which was never meant to see the light of production was quite difficult

NPM Vs PNPM
NPM is not "Node Package Manager". https://www.npmjs.com/package/npm

A not so unfortunate sharp edge in Pipenv
> which can be overriden with env setting
Support for this is not great. Lots of packages still don't support this properly. My experience matches the 2015 comment https://github.com/npm/npm/issues/775#issuecomment-71294085
> Not sure why "symlinks" would be involved.
If you make your node_modules a symlink, multiple packages will fail. Even if you're not interested in doing that, others are.
> What NPM does is leaps and bounds ahead
Unless you change your node / gyp version. It doesn't really have a concept of runtime version. You can restrict it, but not have two concurrent versions if they conflict.

Framework axios pushed a broken update, crippling thousands of websites
I think it's had been supposed to do that since forever. Apart from some bug in npm 5.3. Are you sure your package-lock versions actually conform to the semver ranges in your package.json?

How to build a Google Meet AI assistant app in 10 minutes without coding
Effective communication and efficient meeting management are key to a team's success in the modern workplace. Recognizing this, we will develop an AI-powered meeting assistant app to transform Google Meet recordings into automatically generated meeting notes with key takeaways and action items. The blog post is tailored for every creator from developers to no-coders who are interested in the intersection of AI and productivity tools. It's particularly useful for those with limited AI-development experience and who want to build AI applications by using simple low-code tools like Unbody and Appsmith.

NoCode Newbie: Restaurant hoping to consolidate and reduce overhead
And if you don't need a mobile app and can get by with web only, check out Appsmith. It's open-source, can connect to Google Sheets, Airtable, and any API or database, and is free for unlimited users and apps. Feel free to DM me if you need a hand getting started with either one. I'm Joseph from the Appsmith Developer Relations team, and GreenFlux on the AppSheet forums.

Git in Appsmith: Every Developer Has Been Saved by Git — So, Why Isn’t it a Feature of App Platforms?
This wasn't an easy journey. While this functionality was in high demand, early versions were frustrating to use. In our earliest implementations, it wasn't even possible to pinpoint where the conflicts were in a file. Even members of the Appsmith development team would avoid using our early Git implementations. We even had a rule for our internal “Hackathons” that using the Git feature was banned because it kept breaking! So we know why other app platforms had avoided fully implementing Git: it really was a challenge to get it working right.
