Adobe are now charging for Pantone colours. It will cost a further $15 dollars a month.

If you don’t have the Pantone colours package your colours will be black.

Elon Musk has bought Twitter for 44 billion dollars and is floating the idea of charging $8 a month to be verified.

Can this feature be built in enough time?

Turbo pack

Vercel have announced Turbopack which they claim will be a Rust based successor to web pack.

https://vercel.com/blog/turbopack

Vercel are claiming speeds of up to 10x faster than Vite and 700 time faster than Webpack.

> “Turbopack only bundles the minimum assets required in development, so startup time is extremely fast. On an application with 3,000 modules, Turbopack takes 1.8 seconds to boot up, while Vite takes 11.4 seconds.”

https://vercel.com/blog/turbopack

> “Since we're not offering 1:1 API compatibility, most Webpack plugins won't work out of the box with Turbopack.”
