Fullstack/product engineer, mostly working with TypeScript and Python. I'm especially interested in developer tools, AI/agent infrastructure and small teams with a lot of ownership.
I maintain AutoForm, an open-source TypeScript library with 3.5k+ GitHub stars and 50k+ weekly npm downloads. I also built a TikTok Year in Review product that handled ~10M visits in one month, and currently work on an AI agent product using TypeScript/Python, MCP, subagents and human-in-the-loop workflows.
Yeah, it manages to feel terse and yet overly-verbose all at once. Human language without human taste. And like most AI-generated content once you've suffered through a few of these "articles" they all start to look the same... because they are.
I feel it leaves a bitter flavor how Ryan Dahl pushed so hard for Deno and Deno Deploy for years, just to let them die within 1 year and 6 months respectively.
Thankfully I don't have any codebases that heavily use Deno features, otherwise this would be a steep curve now.
That's a pretty uncharitable take. It literally only exists because of him, he pushed hard for it for years, and now he's decided not to anymore it leaves a bitter taste? What do you want him to do?
What's with the downvotes? Do people doubt that this type of work is something AI is particularly good at? Or is it just resentment against the resulting fact that making the right architectural decisions isn't as important as it was?

Interesting that the Under Attack Mode wasn’t used at all here. I understand not wanting to break APIs but I feel temporarily challenging non-API usage could have at least helped without impacting users too much?
I talked about that directly in the post. We didn't want to just challenge everyone. We use JS challenges but we try to use them sparingly. The rest of the ops team and I were fighting to stay up but it never got so bad that it was a choice between complete outage and using the Under Attack mode.
