Admittedly - suuuper niece and specific request:
How would you coordinate multiple JS engines implementing Node-API running in the same process?
Here's my take github.com/callstackinc..., wrapping opaque pointers in objects referencing a struct of function pointers to use.
Feedback is appreciated!

I want to think that teaching OSS etiquette as part of regular education would help devs empathize with maintainers and understand when a PR is actually helpful. GitHub could guide new users too. But spam will likely worsen significantly. Platforms need to find ways to remain usable in the long term
My first advice to junior contributors is to STOP using vibe coding for PRs. OSS is always about people more than about code. We don't need more code generated by LLM, we need more people who care.

Thank you to everyone who reached out after my "looking for a job" posts. I've been overwhelmed with the shows of support and interview loops. It feels really special to be supported by the community so much.
Also, sorry if I didn't respond - it's a lot. 😅

Self reviews were a good idea before AI but are now a necessity. Don't put that burden on your co-workers. If you use AI, review it 🤖
So I'm reviewing a PR from a colleague that was written for like 95% by AI, and while it might have made his job easier, it's making mine a lot harder because it's riddled with mistakes and issues that I have to now fix, and I feel like I have to thoroughly check every single line of code twice

Tip: if you want an issue solved without doing the work yourself, don't use an accusatory tone when reporting it. And don't continue to do so when a response is provided pointing you in the direction to solve it.

Being independent in open source for 3.5+ years has been wonderful. I've gotten done most of the high-level goals I wanted to, and miss having people & structure around me.
