Node.js is moving to one major release per year starting with Node 27! ๐
โ
Simpler: Every release becomes LTS.
โ
Predictable: Version numbers now align with the year.
โ
New: A 6-month Alpha channel for early testing.

Enjoy! Let me know if free for a coffee or a drink. If any advice happy to help :)
It would be nice to eventually get a standardized API for TypedArrays that has the useful APIs of Node.js Buffer. Dont think there are two far yet but it requires some tricks to interop
Landed initial support for ESM in Node.js SEA: github.com/nodejs/node/...
Similar to CJS entrypoints, it only supports importing builtins, so generally require bundling. @nodeland.dev is working on support for VFS in SEA that will unlock loading other modules within SEA github.com/nodejs/node/...

AI; didn't read.
Node.js patch release day! Full changelog and download links at nodejs.org/en/blog/rele... and nodejs.org/en/blog/rele...
How many enterprise companies have meaningfully reduced, or eliminated, their software engineering backlogs. Are we at the point where GenAI is paying off in production?
Are salaries increasing to match this new level of productivity?
The narrative of replacement is something that has been warned for a long time, and should stop for the sanity of the developers and the industry.
Another tool for the toolbox, but never a drop-in replacement.

๐ฅ NEW BANTER: "Scaling Node.js with the Right Signals: ELU"
CPU utilization is lying to you.
Your auto-scaler adds pods while your actual bottleneck gets worse.
Luca and I explain why ELU is the metric you should be watching.

New Node.js codemod โจ Migrate from Chalk to Node.js util styleText nodejs.org/en/blog/migr...
I've been thinking about this project for a while and finally found the time to materialize it! github.com/metcoder95/f...
A small library with utilities to apply resiliency patterns to (almost) all kind of workloads!
Feedback is always welcomed :)
Node.s sec release
We are doing our best. We are ensuring test passes on all platforms and all active release lines (v20, v22, v24 and v25) - and they aren't currently.
Unfortunately, we don't have an ETA for that, and it's likely that this security release will be postponed one more time. Sorry.
Do you mean โpico de galloโ?
Completely out of topic but now I want some haha
Pizza places pioneered online ordering so that we wouldn't have to have a conversation in order pizza. 20-30 years later, AI companies want us to have a conversation to interact with basically any piece of software.
We have regressed.
I feel the dilemma is, that I feel responsible for being friendly and welcoming to make the experience nicer for newcomers to OSS, who may not yet know the manner well.
But with AI messing this up, it's really hard to tell if it's a human behind I should take care or just AI doing terrible work.
Fascinating discussion on HN re: how burned out everyone in big tech is on AI: news.ycombinator.com/item?id=4613...
I can relate. At this point, I've been working in the AI space for the better part of 2 years and I'm pretty sick of it. The value add just isn't there.
I called this right, didn't I? Mexico, Ireland, etc.

"No more juggling CommonJS and faux-ESM."
- @joyeecheung.bsky.social revealed how @nodejs.org is moving to full ESM and why the future looks brighter for developers.

Use a minimum password length of 8-128 characters, including lowercase and uppercase characters and numbers.
How many years will it take for people to stop this? These requirements are completely useless.
Wild PR for WebSocket over HTTP/2 appears:

A propos of nothing, it's a completely reasonable thing to not use a company's products, services, and OSS, when their CEO openly supports (and takes selfies with) a world leader who the UN says is currently committing genocide.
It reinforces my "AI is a calculator" premise. It helps you come to a correct answer faster and more consistently. But if you don't have the foggiest idea what that correct answer should look like, a calculator ain't gonna make a difference.
Amusing how 99% of people using LLMs forget how these things work:
They are advanced probability machines. They generate the next most likely token (word) based in the input and their training.
Under the hood, itโs a giant matrix multiplication that has eerily good output.
I'm going to be speaking at JSConf US in October โญ๏ธ jsconf2025.sched.com/event/26Ubg
and the jar is emptying.
I reached AI fatigue faster over any other tech trending over the last 10 years.
It is just... too much.
I'm starting to think that I should document more the progress on Piscina; maybe some articles on a blog?
It can be even shorter:
