ES Modules are terrible, actually

This post was adapted from an earlier Twitter thread.

It's incredible how many collective developer hours have been wasted on pushing through the turd that is ES Modules (often mistakenly called "ES6 Modules"). Causing a big ecosystem divide and massive tooling support issues, for... well, no reason, really. There are no actual advantages to it. At all.

It looks shiny and new and some libraries use it in their documentation without any explanation, so people assume that it's the new thing that must be used. And then I end up having to explain to them why, unlike CommonJS, it doesn't actually work everywhere yet, and may never do so. For example, you can't import ESM modules from a CommonJS file! (Update: I've released a module that works around this issue.)

And then there's Rollup, which apparently requires ESM to be u

This gist is out of date and I can no longer help much, as I got rid of my Mac.

Mount SD Cards within VirtualBox on Mac OS X

Sometimes you need to mount your SD cards inside a VirtualBox machine to work with the files on the card. Working with the Raspberry Pi SD card on Mac OS X is an example for this.

My Raspberry Pi runs on Linux with some version of the EXT file system. While there is some support for this on Mac OS X, the available solutions have a lot of limitations, especially when it comes to write support on EXT file systems. As I do not have an USB keyboard, I sometimes need to mount the filesystem on another system to fix a startup problem when some of my experiments go wrong.

VirtualBox in theory allows for passing the internal card reader of the MacBooks to the virtual machine. Unfortunately, this does not work for me (and it seems for many other people).
