PS State of Play today had some games I'm really pumped for. Saros is a Day 1 buy, Housemarque deserves it after Returnal. Wolverine won't come out till much later into 2026, but it's by Insomniac so I'm cautiously optimistic. But that Deus Ex remaster...the textures and lighting look really bad 😭

This is great news! GitHub will require use of passkeys for 2FA when publishing to NPM. What a huge step up in security compared to other phishable 2FA methods that were historically supported 🎉 github.blog/security/sup...

Excited to be speaking at @fidoalliance.bsky.social 's Authenticate US 2025 with my amazing colleague Niharika Arora about "𝐖𝐡𝐚𝐭’𝐬 𝐧𝐞𝐰 𝐨𝐧 Google 𝐩𝐥𝐚𝐭𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐦s 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐏𝐚𝐬𝐬𝐤𝐞𝐲𝐬" authenticatecon.com/event/authen... Happy to catch-up if you are joining and discuss all Identity things!

Not really an overstatement to say that the test of a free society is whether or not comedians can make fun of the country's leader on TV without repurcussions.

This is such an incredible self own by the US, way to completely humiliate an ally nation and crater any future chances of South Korea investing in US infrastructure. All because our visa system is too inflexible. Also ICE agents equating South Koreans to North Koreans? How insulting! 😡

It is entirely possible to be respectful about the death of a person you disagreed with without “honoring” him by vowing to continue his disagreeable, hateful “work.”

It’s ok to put the phone down.

"that's not funny, no one should lose their lives to gun violence" so true! that's what we've been saying all along. I'm so glad you agree

Oh thank god, now I can stop liking hot takes that I actually just wanted to keep around to dunk on later

BREAKING: Supreme Court lets Trump resume immigration raids targeting Latinos, Spanish speakers and certain workers Apparent 6-3 ruling. Dissenting, Sotomayor says the order is "unconscionably irreconcilable with our nation's constitutional guarantees." @courthousenews.bsky.social

I feel compelled to point out that the Digital Credentials API (DC API) is basically a dumb pipe for channeling a request for info from website to wallet. It's the wallet apps that are responsible for gatekeeping access to our mDLs and other PII-heavy credentials. 1/n

lmao as per the EO "Department of War" is just a nickname for the DOD with a "pretty please call it that", Trump doesn't have the power to actually rename anything 😏 www.whitehouse.gov/fact-sheets/...

Silksong's release announcement was actually Team Cherry, an APT group, sneakily preparing us for today's DDOS attack against Nintendo

We found that by asking LLMs to multiply 475,193 by 981,350 we could generate cryptographically secure random numbers

Happy Labor Day, fellow Americans. I hope you have a restful day of work today 😌

Another great list of examples to throw into the anti-JS pile. If you’re a web developer who hasn’t paid attention to CSS in a while, give this a read! https://lyra.horse/blog/2025/08/you-dont-need-js/

Why didn't the robots in The Matrix simply genetically modify humans into fleshy things that filled up the entire pod? What's the use of limbs and all that if all that's needed are the bits that "generate bioelectricity"?

Cancelled my Snapmaker U1 kickstarter bid because Bambu showed off their upcoming H2C tool changer (which Bambu probably tipped their hand in response to the wild success of the Snapmaker U1 kickstarter lol) H2S looks pretty cool too, but maybe I get an AMS 2 Pro for my P1S for now? 💸

I'm in this post and I don't like it

Why is @wired.com still showing me ads and asking me to sign up for their daily newsletter when I'm already subscribed? Feels like double-dipping 😒

I've seen a couple Evangelion title card generators going around so here's mine, newly re-hosted (RIP Glitch). Do the other ones simulate broadcast video in pure CSS by using individually animated red/green/blue drop shadows? I have no idea, but mine does. paulstarr.dev/eva/

FYI Anker sells most of their stuff on their ebay store, and with free, fast shipping. And sometimes I'm convinced I found a better deal here than even buying direct on their website 🤑 www.ebay.com/str/ankerdir...

It's time to rewatch this, Dark Gothic MAGA are further along than the last time I watched back in February 😬 youtube.com/watch?v=5RpP...

Hey web devs, gimme your most over-engineered one-liner helper methods, I'll start: github.com/MasterKale/r...

Holy smokes, Super Metroid was 9800円 at launch in Japan, and that was the PRE-TAX price? Japanese gamers have been suffering for so long 😭

I'm feeling like I've crested the "satisfied with VS Code" mountain. The last few months have been trending more AI-centric, case in point the July 2025 update highlights six new features, five of which are AI-related and are of just no use to me. Maybe I'll see how Sublime is doing 👀

You volunteer to scribe at Working Group meetings because you enjoy doing it I volunteer to scribe at Working Group meetings because I can't stand more than 60 seconds of pure silence when the ask for scribes goes out We are not the same

I'm really happy to see uBlock Origin Lite make it to Safari, both on macOS 15.6+ and iOS 18.6+ (works fine on iOS 26 Public Beta too): apps.apple.com/app/ublock-o... You can rest now, AdGuard, you did well 🫡

LOL. Ghislaine Maxwell also said Jeffrey Epstein never did anything disturbing around her! That's how she caught two perjury charges.

Japan 🇯🇵 has officially banned Apple’s iOS browser engine restrictions. Starting Dec 2025, iPhones must allow real Firefox, Chrome, Opera, Brave, Vivaldi and others to run their own engines, just like on desktop. /1 open-web-advocacy.org/blog/japan-a...

Roll credits on Death Stranding 2! What an amazing, bizarre game that topped everything about the first game, GOTY contender for me for sure

Tsunami warning? More like tsu-not-me warning (I'll be fine, friends, I'm far enough away from the coast!) Magnitude 8.7, woof...that's a big one. I hope my Japan friends will be fine...
