That's JS Party number 333, which is a fun ride of itself. But then I got this idea for the chapters. Since this whole thing was Nick's emergency, I'm going to have him referenced in every single chapter. And so there's 22 chapters on that episode. And if you go read them, every single chapter has the word Nick in it somewhere. Chapter three, Node adds TypeScript stripping for Nick.

Chapter four, Nick would absolutely love this. Chapter five, Nick, I'd rather be TypeScripting. You get the point. That's the kind of nerdery I'm talking about. Why not, right? Have some fun. Probably less than seven people realize this. Less than 7%, huh? You think so? Well, how do you know? How do you know how many people will look at your chapters?

We need to chapter pixel tracking technology ASAP.

Yeah, I do appreciate that level of detail that we can put into it, which I believe the hardest core of hardcore listeners do appreciate. Just imagine the experience of hearing about us for the second or third time, and maybe you're not a full-time listener, but you've been linked up to an episode page, and you land there, and somebody says they talked about X. and pick your variable, right?

They talked about, you know, Nick level emergencies on this thing. And he was mentioning his desire for what's new in ECMAScript 24. You can jump right to that chapter. And that chapter is also a linked chapter that goes out to an entire article on the new stack About it. Because that's probably what Nick did in show notes was like, hey, this is what my reference point is. Right.

So they can go right to minute 18 and 26 seconds and listen to what's new. So when they come there, they kind of get this version of instant gratification. Whereas podcasts... generally require you to dedicate, in this case, 51 minutes potentially, to hunt for the goodness. Chapters point you directly there. Now, I mentioned initially, chapter snob, that's me.

Even on YouTube, like if I'm listening, if I'm watching anything on YouTube, like a recipe, you know, I've been like all in this chef stuff, you know. If I find a video that's like next level chicken parmesan and I want to like examine their recipe, I don't need to know it.

Like if I've experienced, I could chapters, let me bypass the things that are not for me versus having to listen to the whole thing or watch the whole thing or whatever it might be. Like if you are on YouTube or you're podcasting like we are, and you're not chaptering and you have anything that's more than five minutes, Sad, man. I would just bail on it.

So here's a feature for YouTube I've been thinking about. Because we do now allow YouTube to slurp in our audio episodes. And you can subscribe to JSParty, GoTime, what have you, on YouTube now. via the playlist at youtube.com slash changelog. And so this is YouTube's official way of adding audio podcasts as a feature to their platform.
