The funniest thing about the minor earthquake in buffalo this morning is that the most common initial reaction was "I thought someone drove a car into my house". This is funny because buffalo is the world capital of people driving their car into your fucking house.
So today I learned that the web component shadow dom totally encapsulates all your styles except for all the different holes into which your global styles can leak. This has always been a global cascade stan account but it still seems counterintuitive to me.
I'm begging you to play another game, TikTok lady

gm to the tiktok lady who said the myth of Sisyphus is about the value of having a good daily routine and that Sisyphus is happy because he is getting more swole every time he pushes the boulder up. my brain gets hot like an old laptop thinking about it

The more typescript discourse I read, the more I come to believe there is a "step on me Mommy" school of thought in programming. Masochistic Epistemology: whatever hurts is true.
Can someone please explain to me what the absolute entire fuck is the deal with Tailwind CSS? It looks like a utility library for people who hate css that somehow went from a beta release directly into a culture war.
I drive like a little old lady and I invite you to die mad about it.
@marcamos
Same, honestly.

And yeah those steel zebra bps are pretty sweet. I'd take them over, say, a parker jotter any day.

I'm actually out of non-fountain-pen pens and also the last person in the world who regularly writes checks, and a lot of that money is the brand new Tomoe River v3 anyway stop judging me

I think the anarchists are more or less right, but I think social democracy by way of incrementalism is achievable and I won't let perfect be the enemy of improvement.
Look now, a woman with opinions on a thing she's an expert in gets well-actuallied in the comments by white men in real time who are not experts in the thing. Except one, and you can tell. I checked.

Using #OpenSource contributions as a factor in sourcing candidates or making hiring decisions is a terrible, horrible, no good, very bad idea.

I've been going in pretty hard on @donotpay and @jbrowder1 for the past couple of days, and I've had a lot of people defending the service, saying that it could be a real boon to those who can't otherwise afford legal aid.
I don't know if The Three Body Problem is Chinese propaganda or not, but the Three-Body series by Tencent definitely is. Also it's a great show.

i feel sorry for the people who were laid off but perhaps this will be a reflection point for some of them and they might start to recognize themselves as workers instead of special fancy lads exempt from labor relations https://twitter.com/GergelyOrosz/status/1616542572456955923
I've been gleefully hate reading about George Santos and his ongoing revelations, until the most recent one where his alleged drag persona was revealed from 2008. He might actually be telling the truth when he says he's gay?
I'm not even saying it isn't a fight worth having, but for all the feelings and sensations we watch horror for, a persistent sense of "that moment when the vibe goes bad at a rowdy bar" isn't one I was looking for or expecting.
These shows keep getting gayer and blacker and transer and fatter and womanier and it seems like it's driven entirely by spite and I am totally here for all of it but I can't get past the little tickle in my brain that someone is trying to pick a fight with this stuff.
