🎧 A brand-new OTMT episode should be in your podcast players by now:
The TC39 Roundup 🌶️ Drama Edition — Part I

I talk to @jakearchibald.com about the TC39 Structs proposal and how it is a big step towards shared-data multithreading in JS.

Great chat

Will there be a reincarnation of http 203 or OTMT?

I apologize for splitting the last OTMT episode into two parts. It was sincerely unplanned.

🎧 Part II of the TC39 Drama 🌶️ Roundup is now out!

In this one, I talk to @jakearchibald.com about JS0, which proposes to split JavaScript into two specifications.

Get your 👂ears ready for a brand new OTMT episode!

A while ago we talked about Bazel, and now it's time to take a closer look at Nix! How does it work? Is it any good for web development? In this episode, @jakearchibald.com and I try to provide answers.

I may be wrong but, otome games from otmt stopped going on sale on the jp eshop since 2022 (I've been checking eshop prices history).

I waiting for Spade no kuni no Alice and Jakou no Lyla sales since forever. They are both old titles too and they never went on sale...

🧶 ICYMI, here's the latest episode of OTMT, where me and @surma.dev chat about service worker static routes, and whether it's ever ok to throw away most of the web platform and do everything in .

🔊 ICYMI, in the latest OTMT, @surma.dev digs into source maps, visualising WASM bundles, and how debugging works in compiled languages.

Oh, and we try to explain the concept of Wetherspoons to folks outside the UK.

ICYMI: In the most recent OTMT podcast episode, @jakearchibald.com and I talk about putting React in the browser.

While that’s good clickbait, the episode is about about past and present platform proposals that aim to help frameworks with managing the DOM.
