Yet Another Newsletter LOL: Astronomical week

It’s the extra long weekend for me, so I’m looking forward to recharging. With that, another week, another newsletter. Let's get to it!

Around the Web

• Ever wonder how Node.js is able to perform non-blocking I/O operations? Colin from the Node.js core team has got you covered in Developer Initiates I/O Operation. You Won't Believe What Happens Next. It’s a blog post from 2017, but it came on my radar because of this Tweet.
• I got to hang with Daniel Roe from the Nuxt core team recently on my Twitch stream, and we briefly discussed server components in Nuxt. Here’s a full write-up on Nuxt server components for anyone interested.
• Congrats Astro team on your launch week, which included launching Astro 3.0 and Astro Studio!

Fun Stuff

Shameless Plugs

I was a guest on the Hadith tech podcast this week! I discussed my career and open source. Thanks again for having me on, Abdurrahman!

Jobs

• For anyone interested in open source, there are a couple of roles open at Amazon:

  • Open Source Engineer, Amazon Software Builder Experience (ASBX)

  • Open Source Engineering Manager, OSPO

I post jobs in the iamdeveloper.com community, plus all other kinds of content, as do others. If you're looking for another friendly nook of the internet, head to discord.iamdeveloper.com.
