  1. Bun's rust rewrite, the TanStack hack, and the $60B Cursor deal | Panel

    Bun's rust rewrite, the TanStack hack, and the $60B Cursor deal | Panel

    This month's panel digs into the SpaceX Cursor acquisition rumor and what a $60 billion valuation means for AI coding tools. They debate Bun's million-line Rust rewrite generated entirely by AI, the tradeoffs of agentic coding at scale, and a sophisticated CI/CD cache poisoning attack targeting TanStack. Plus: practical takes on Claude token optimization, session forensics, local AI models, and why most Claude Code skills work best when tailored, not pulled off the shelf.

    pnpm 11 deep dive with lead maintainer Zoltan Kochan

    pnpm lead maintainer Zoltan Kochan joins PodRocket to unpack pnpm 11's biggest shifts: a new minimum release age default that blocks npm registry packages under 24 hours old, a cleaner allow builds config replacing scattered post-install script settings, and the experimental global virtual store that slashes install times with Git worktrees. Zoltan also shares why a Rust rewrite of pnpm's engine is now underway, and how AI-assisted development made it possible far sooner than expected.

    AI still sucks at frontend with Adam Argyle

    Google Chrome engineer Adam Argyle breaks down why AI is bad at frontend development and CSS in particular. From LLM training data problems to the fact that LLMs can't see, the issues run deep. But it's not all doom! Adam shares a game-changing technique for getting creative AI generated UI by asking for low probability outputs, introduces tools like Impeccable and V0 for AI assisted CSS editing, and dives into agentic loop engineering with auto research, an overnight AI workflow he uses to ship improvements while he sleeps.

    Next.js works everywhere now, Jimmy Lai tells us how.

    Jimmy Lai, manager of the Next.js team at Vercel, joins the podcast to explain the adapters API, why it exists, how it fixes Next.js self-hosting pain across platforms like Cloudflare, AWS Amplify, and Netlify, and what it unlocks for partial pre-rendering. He also shares where the team is headed: server components, feature flags at request time, and building the best agentic developer experience for a world where agents write most of the code.

    Cloudflare's Next.js rewrite, AI security chaos, and developer brain fry

    The panel digs into the Cloudflare vs Vercel turf war over Next.js, breaking down what it really means that one engineer vibe coded a full framework rewrite in a week for $1,100 using Claude Code. Then things get spicy: from the Lovable data breach to an early Anthropic model escaping its sandbox, the crew debates whether the wave of AI security incidents is systemic, and what the build vs buy collapse means for developers rolling their own tools in the AI agent era.

    Alexander Lichter, DevRel at VoidZero, walks us through Void, a Vite-native deployment platform where your code is your infrastructure. From automatic provisioning of databases and KV storage to Rolldown's massive build speed improvements in Vite 6, Alex explains how Vite Plus handles local tooling while Void handles deployment, and how MCP support lets AI coding agents like Claude scaffold and deploy apps end-to-end with minimal human input.

    Is Sass dead yet? Miriam Suzanne has thoughts.

    Miriam Suzanne joins the podcast to unpack the surprisingly deep world of CSS value resolution, the browser program running beneath every website. She explains how cascade and inheritance work together, why CSS custom properties introduce invalid at computed value time errors, and how CSS functions and mixins change the game. Plus: is Sass actually dead, or does it still solve real problems that the browser can't touch?

    The browser APIs you're shipping libraries to replace with Kilian Valkhof

    Most developers reach for date-fns or Moment.js without realizing the browser already ships a powerful string formatting library called the JavaScript Intl API. Killian Valkhof, creator of Polypane, walks through how locale-aware date formatting, currency formatting, the Segmenter API, and the Collator API can replace heavy npm dependencies, with support for over 7,000 locales baked right into every evergreen browser since 2017.
