I've been saying for years now that it would be cool if you could have an LLM generate an application on the fly by just connecting it to a DB, turns out someone actually gave it a go and it works!
@samrolken.bsky.social - this is very cool!

I'm implementing a comprehensive E2E test suite for the new Svelte Society website and I'm exploring parallelization.
I started with a test.sqlite file that is seeded with some data and then had the tests run serially. This takes a lot of time and tests are not properly isolated.

Yes, Cloudflare D1 is totally a replacement for an embedded SQLite database. Pinky promise! 🤡
No. Of course that's not true. SQLite locally is 780x faster. 🤣

Does anyone know how long a simple SELECT takes for Cloudflare D1? It's hard to test because of protections against side channel attacks.
15ms? 60ms? 🤔

Have a listen to this one! And look forward to the end of October for a live stream I'm doing with Jeppe to integrate Storybook into the new Svelte Society website!
It was an absolute pleasure chatting with @kevinak.se, @brittneypostma.bsky.social and @antony.is, you're the best bunch! ❤️
And for the record, I did NOT have any influence on the title of the episode, that was all Kev. 😅

Oh... what's this, you ask? Just a benchmark that coincidentally shows how fast SvelteKit is compared to Next.js 🤷♂️
How fast, you ask? Just 7-10x. No biggie.

Just discovered a new form remote function feature I hadn't seen before. Makes it a breeze to build progressively enhanced forms inside tables.
Here's one example where you need one form for every row. Just adding `.for(some-key)` makes it work 🧑🍳🤌

I have some logging enabled to see how long queries and data loading is taking on the new Svelte Society website.
Almost had a heart attack when I saw the numbers. 0.2-0.3 seconds? Then I realize - oh, it's 0.2-0.3 *ms*. 😅
Turns out you don't need the VC backed cloud. 🤯 🤷♂️

As we're nearing the launch of the Svelte Society website (~2-3 weeks out) - I'm starting to look for sponsors. Does your company use Svelte? Do you want to show up as a sponsor on the website? Reach out!

Looking for a contractor that can help out with content moderation on the new Svelte Society website. It will mostly involve migrating old content and making sure submissions are accepted in a timely fashion. Would be perfect for a student or someone that is Sveltecurious and learning web dev.

We're starting up the Svelte Radio podcast again next week. We used to use StreamYard but it has gotten very expensive. Does anyone know any other services that are cheaper and give you roughly the same set of features?
+ if there's an easy way to add more team members.
