How We Migrated Our Rush.js Monorepo to Node Type Stripping
Since v23.6 (and in LTS since v22.18.0), Node has supported running (most) TypeScript code by stripping the types out first. The Calm team was excited about the potential for improving productivity and DX, and set a migration in process.

pnpm 10.16 Adds Support for Delayed Dependency Updates
The alternative efficient npm package manager has added a way to specify a ‘minimum release age’ for package dependencies, so a setting of ‘1440’ (minutes) will mean only packages released more than one day ago will be installed. This can help avoid malicious versions of packages which are quickly withdrawn. - https://pnpm.io/blog/releases/10.16
