A thought on JavaScript "proof of work" anti-scraper systems
(utoronto.ca)
One of the things that people are increasingly using these days to deal with the issue of aggressive LLM and other web scrapers is JavaScript based "proof of work" systems, where your web server requires visiting clients to run some JavaScript to solve a challenge; one such system (increasingly widely used) is Xe Iaso's Anubis.

Show HN: Advanced Chunking in JavaScript/TypeScript with Chonkie
(ycombinator.com)
Hi HN,<p>We’re Shreyash and Bhavnick. We built Chonkie, an open-source library for advanced chunking and embedding of text and code. It was previously Python-only, but we just released a TypeScript version: https://github.com/chonkie-inc/chonkie-ts<p>Many AI projects in JS/TS (like those using Vercel's AI SDK or Mastra) rely on basic text splitters. But better chunking = better retrieval = better performance. That’s what Chonkie is built for.

There’s been some criticism lately about Deno - about Deploy, KV, Fresh, and our momentum in general. You may have seen some of the criticism online; it’s made the rounds in the usual places, and attracted a fair amount of attention.

Just Fucking Use React
(justfuckingusereact.com)
This is about acknowledging that sometimes, complexity is not a choice, it's a fucking requirement. And when that complexity hits, trying to wrangle it with document.getElementById and a prayer is like trying to build a goddamn space shuttle with fucking popsicle sticks and glue. You might get something that looks vaguely shuttle-shaped, but it'll be a wobbly, unmaintainable, terrifying piece of shit that explodes on the launchpad.
