Another week, another newsletter. Let's get to it!

Around the Web

• This is pretty remarkable TBH. How a 23-year-old first-time Firefox coder fixed a 22-year-old bug
• Vercel just dropped a great blog post about cookies, Understanding Cookies.
• This is exciting work from Netlify. They've released Netlify Functions 2.0! The new Netlify Functions API aligns it with the same API Netlify Edge Functions offers including the context object which provides stuff like geolocation data.
• This week I came across this wonderful site that explains React Server Components. Check out servercomponents.dev

Fun Stuff

This is a fun, cool project I came across this week that's made with PartyKit. You can watch a watering hole in the Namib Desert!

Words of Wisdom for the Week

I'm hyped about my team and this message we have is really great, so just wanted to share it here.

Support is great. Feedback is even better.

– The makers of OpenSauced

Shameless Plugs

This week I got to hang with my awesome co-worker Bekah! We did a Hacktoberfest check-in, gave shout-outs to OpenSauced contributors, and chatted about Hacktoberfest & open source.

I wrapped up my first month at OpenSauced, and it’s been an awesome wild ride. It was a long day Tuesday, but it all paid off because we reached #5 for Product of the Day on Product Hunt!
