@brianleroux @AmeliaBR Firefox source map / debug has been broken for years... (ex bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug. with full repo code)
And on a vendors own platform with their own SDK should be totally unnecessary.
I live by stack traces. Key debugging tool.

Just a reminder @joinmastodon delisted a server yesterday specifically because that server took measures to protect the physical safety of their LGBTQ community and refuse to even engage in conversation with anyone about it causing a huge out lash on .

Amazon Alexa is a colossal failure on pace to lose $10 billion for the company this year. Good. Couldn't have happened to a nicer product. Stop normalizing filling your house with always-on microphones controlled by billionaires.

@jim @OfficeforAI you'd hope along with would be settling up their own instances own recognised domains eg social.bbc.co.uk or Mastadon.gov.uk

The British version:

1XX - I'm sorry, would you mind waiting?
2XX - So sorry for keeping you waiting
3XX - Deeply sorry, but I don’t think I can help you
4XX - Dreadfully sorry, but I think you may be mistaken
5XX - Terribly sorry, this is so embarrassing

I’d love to work on something which contributes to pushing the web itself or developer experience forward. Ideally at Director-level at a more established company that does remote working well, and which is genuinely inclusive

I'd appreciate any introductions or leads for things you think could be exciting. Thanks in advance! 💙

@profcarroll this is one of the one things that I'm actually worried about. 🫣 Not existential to the 'verse, but in a "will harm users and their relationships" kind of way.

When I built DMs on twitter, it was SMS only, and you had to type "d username message"; it was a foot gun beyond compare. As soon as we could improve the UX affordance, we did, because it led to many embarrassing moments. 😬

The Twitter network was small then, no-one had preconceptions about how DM worked, and (cont'd)

I believe I may have graduated to step 6 of the above list. Possibly even a new step 6.5 where I see someone link to their Twitter and I think, blimey, you're still on Twitter?
I was not expecting the little seesaw in my brain to tip over quite this fast, and I'm halfway expecting it to tip back again.

The best argument against "capitalism breed innovation" is Los Angeles. Their answer to everything is just more cars. Want to travel 20 miles across town? Enjoy sitting in an Uber on the 405 for 2 hours. Like, where are the maglevs and e-VTOLs? Even a normal train would be better than this.

Why are people from Norway so good at editing files in Linux?

Their ancestors are vi-kings.

With Trump back on the platform, users abandoning it leaving behind mostly fascists, racists and crypto scammers, and advertisers fleeing, Elon Musk has successfully turned Twitter into a Truth Social clone.

@Edent feel your pain. Spent last weekend fixing (legacy, pay for licence ) extensions that no longer worked and too worried to upgrade in case licence or features change.
