Biome 2.0 ships a type-aware linter without a tsc dependency. We benchmarked it against ESLint on a 40k-line monorepo. Also: Turborepo's remote cache had a quiet bug, moka gets a v1, and one CLI you should delete.
- Biome 2.0 — type-aware rules, no tsc in the loop, 12x faster than ESLint+Prettier on cold cache
- moka v1.0 — Rust caching library graduates, sync + async, matches Caffeine's API shape
- eslint-plugin-import — the resolver deadlock that's haunted every large repo since 2019
- Turborepo 2.6 remote cache silently served stale artifacts under concurrent writes; patched, upgrade

wild links faster than mold, and TypeScript’s Go checker lands
Issue 43 · 5 min read
Morning —
Linker benchmarks are usually noise, but this week’s aren’t. A new Rust linker called wild is beating mold on incremental builds, and the gap holds up under a clean re-run.
“We stopped benchmarking after the third run because the numbers weren’t moving. That never happens with a new linker.”
Also in this issue:
- wild linker beats mold on incremental Rust builds by 15-20%
- TypeScript 5.9's native checker ships behind a flag — 8x on our monorepo
- gold linker is formally deprecated, migrate before binutils drops it
Full changelog, as always, is one scroll away.

We read the changelogs so you don’t have to.
Every Thursday, one issue. No sponsored placements pretending to be recommendations, no “top 10 AI tools” filler. If it’s in the archive, we run it.
Written by two people who still read release notes for fun, which is either a qualification or a warning.
“Cancelled four other newsletters after this one. It's the only one that tells me when a tool got worse, not just when it shipped.”
“The diff format actually works — I can tell in ten seconds whether an issue has anything for my stack.”
“Recommended the sqlite-vec issue to my whole team. We ripped out a vector DB we didn't need.”
git pull the next issue before it ships.
