I wanted to share esm.sh because it goes way beyond a basic CDN. It’s essentially 'esbuild-as-a-service.'

A few things that impressed me:

You can import .tsx or .vue files directly and it compiles them on the server. It has a ?worker query that turns any module into a Web Worker automatically. It’s fully compatible with Deno and JSR.

The material expenditures on the towers were enormous; 192,000 tons of steel, 425,000 cubic yards of concrete, 43,600 windows with 572,000 square feet of glass, 1,143,000 square feet of aluminum sheet, 198 miles of ductwork, and 12,000 miles of electrical cable.

The towers also provided an extraordinary employment opportunity for the construction workers of the region. More than 3,500 people were employed continuously on-site during construction.

A total of 10,000 people were involved in its construction. Tragically, 60 people were killed during construction.

During their lifetimes the towers were host to the birth of 17 babies and 19 murders.

Fifty thousand people called the towers their place of work and on many days tens of thousands visited.

Stumbled across this insanely underrated creator who made a super cool video about how particles work with WebGL. He explains it in such a chill, easy-to-get way and shows off some wild stuff he built.

Enjoyed reading your story. Hoe you find your purpose in life, but not searching it.

Like other commenters mentioned here, lifting people around you, not just your friends and family, but random ones, might give you some joy.

I wanted to see if chatGPT will be able to understand the meaning of this comic, and i think it did.

*Gpt message:*

This comic humorously highlights a critical issue in the tech world: the dependency of massive modern digital infrastructure on small, often overlooked, and underfunded components maintained by individual contributors. The large stack in the illustration represents the complex and sprawling "modern digital infrastructure," while the tiny piece at the bottom, maintained by a "random person in Nebraska," symbolizes open-source software or obscure tools that are crucial for the functioning of this entire system.

The key message is that large systems often rely on foundational work done by unsung heroes who may not receive the recognition, support, or resources they deserve, despite the critical nature of their contributions. This comic resonates particularly with the tech community, where dependencies on small open-source projects are common.

Yeah, it’s a bit late since it’s already October, but I’m working on a few areas. One is digging deep into AI and how to integrate it with web automation, especially with the tool I’ve been building for a couple of years, https://automatio.ai.

We’re focusing on improving multi-threading, releasing smaller packages, and working on documentation. A lot of effort also went into content creation and boosting the site’s domain authority and backlinks.

A few years ago, we had a client and built a price-monitoring app for women's beauty products. They had multiple marketplaces, and like someone mentioned before, it was tricky because many products come in different sizes and EANs, and you need to be able to match them.

We built a system for admins so they can match products from Site A with products from Site B.

The scraping part was not that hard. We used our product https://automatio.co/ where possible, and where we couldn't, we built some scrapers from scratch t using simple CURL or Puppetteer.

Thanks for sharing your experience, especially that I didn't use Playwright before.
