#JS #Node #tip:

See what #npm packages your project is no longer using with this one-liner:

```sh
npx npm-check | grep -i 'notused?' | rev | cut -d'?' -f2 | cut -d' ' -f1 | rev
```

(Treat the list as a hint: [npm-check](https://www.npmjs.com/package/npm-check) isn't capable of detecting all possible usages of all packages, so there might be false positives.)

Where Marc writes about #ARC, an improvement over #DMARC.

(With much appreciation for #Fastmail and their engineers: I'm a client and I recommend them.)

Funny uses of #English in Spanish products:

A few years ago I gifted my then girlfriend a padel racket. It was a special series, almost hand-made by a Spanish company. Among other emblems and inscriptions, there was one reading “DESING” (sic). Someone thought “design” was a gerund…

A friend just gave us one of those battery-powered plastic “quads” for the kids. Again, I suspect it's made in Spain — or at least in a non-English-speaking country. It has a sticker on the side: “RACY”. Because, you know, it's for racing!

Am I the only one who is always confused by the difference between “products” and “solutions” on the sites of digital tools/services?

Me too

Fun fact: 38% of #parenting is about using one's imagination to shield #children from the nuisances of every day life, to lift their morale — aka “the _la vita è bella_ procedure”.

It's dark and damp, it's raining, there's a strong wind and you are walking the #kids to school. A gush of wind breaks your umbrella. The kids complain of the cold. One of them trips and falls. The other says his minuscule rucksack is bothering him. You are in a bit of a hurry. Still, you manage to sound cheerful and happy above the gale, and to fake surprise and point in delight at random things across the street (a green bus, someone carrying a striped umbrella). You keep them distracted and keep on encouraging them. Instead of cursing, you know.

That kind of thing.
