it's hard to be bleeding edge

2025-01-28

Today:

  • Rebuilt my site’s “microposts” page in Astro for it to work fine in development but not on the deployment target (Netlify)
  • Spent two hours wondering why - made lots of guesses, moved stuff here and there, migrated from Astro v4 to v5

Nearing my wits end, I caved and asked Deepseek. Gave a couple of suggestions, the first of which turned out to be the culprit:

// went from this
myEntries.sort() // sorting algorithm here
// to this
myEntries.toSorted() 

That’s the price you pay for playing with “bleeding edge” features, I guess.
