A good romp through 47 years of Britain's troubled EU membership (albeit from a Remain standpoint)

Out of chaos, order. A withdrawal agreement subtly changes the nature of EU membership. Leaving is no more a leap into the void, or a daring prison break, but a predictable, defined, costable procedure. Risky for the EU, but maybe healthy too.

WebAssembly brings SIMD support to the Web. What is it? and explain and demonstrate how to use it to run native code on the Web even faster! 🔥 (This feature is currently experimental and available under a flag.)

I wonder if the doctor command could also have some kind of opt-in data collection about packages with issues, and whether there could be some kind of `yarn dlx @yarnpkg/doctor --fix` that could automatically apply the known user space 'fixes'.

Therefore, I think (1) a package's compatability should be highlighted by default, and (2) `yarn init` should default to enabling PnP when creating new projects.

I don't wholly disagree with this since it allows `yarn add` commands all over GitHub to continue working. However, making PnP opt-in makes it very likely that a minority of stragglers will hold the community back long-term.

Amdahl's Law is about what happens when you make a program faster. Usually we talk about parallelism, but it's really about optimization generally. If there's some part A of your program that you can make faster, and another part B that you can't, then in the limit, even if

Another lever is being able to launder advice through the mouths of others. Sort of "word-of-mouth marketing" but generalised.

"Why observability? Why *now*?" 👇basically this. Your process-level debugger no longer works now that functions hop the network. Observability solves this by packing context up with the request as it hops from process to process, forcing an fsync after every successful hop.

Experts were manually rewriting their Git histories and then GitHub added squash merging, and this is more beginner friendly because now you only have to care about the title and description of the PR which can be edited via the GUI.
