Just tried. If you're already streaming, it manages to show you the prompt, but there's no way to interact with it. The mouse moves (both on the host and client), but clicks don't go through. Keyboard navigation doesn't

I have been using koa in production for a few years, about to launch a second product soon. Also using TypeScript. They go great together.

The CI story has been my biggest gripe with monorepos. I'm surprised that no separate tool has emerged, like the "custom Jenkins scripts" mentioned in the article. Maybe I'm missing something, but couldn't you get p

Oh nice. I was a premium subscriber for years but never bothered using the premium podcast URLs. The ads can be pretty funny.

On macOS at least, opening a PWA .app also launches Chrome, and quitting Chrome also quits any PWAs you have open. That's not a stellar experience.
