Opening a show with an action scene and then pulling "24 hours earlier" (or however long) just absolutely enrages me. Don't patronise me, make your story interesting enough to tell it in order. There is no counter example where this makes a better show.

Got questions about building Chrome Extensions? We’re recording some new videos for the @developer.chrome.com channel in October, and I’d love suggestions for topics we should cover: www.reddit.com/r/chrome_ext...

In our fictional dystopia for NIN’s “Year Zero,” Hollywood had been destroyed and rebuilt in Florida where it was strictly regulated by the state & overseen by Evangelical groups, so news was state propaganda and entertainment was sanitized pro-Christian content approved by the US Bureau of Morality

I've hit level 17 and it's fiendish. I will accept being a robot now.

Oh no, I missed my BIOS stop. I hope we don't crash.

If you see this, repost a #vampire that is not Dracula. (I have lost track of how many times I have watched this and honestly, I think I should get this hair cut. And the outfit. Mullets and dusters never stopped being cool.)

There are best practices for how to promote #passkeys on your app. This blog post goes through different surfaces to remind your users about passkey benefits, their approaches and case studies. The same practices apply to the web as well. android-developers.googleblog.com/2025/09/best...

The real reason Frankenstein is a monster is because he never even once considered monetising his invention. Come on, bringing back the dead is prime subscription model territory.

Really excited to be speaking @perfnow.nl this year—my favourite conference run by some of my favourite people! If you're into web performance (or wanna be!) and like a great conference with a super friendly vibe then pop along to Amsterdam at the end of October. Tickets selling fast! perfnow.nl

Any opinions on combined mop and vacuum robot cleaners? I'm currently comparing across Roomba, Ecovacs, and Eufy but I've never seen any of these things in action before.

Saw advice around alcohol that said don't drink when you're stressed. Ok, so when can I drink it? Just never? Geez.

Did you know Cross-Document View Transitions are being used in production on Google Search? developer.chrome.com/blog/google-... is a case study I co-authored with one of our engineers from the Google Search UI team.

Called it guard.io/labs/scamlex...

Spaghetti House was made of brick actually‽ 🤷

Post something from your camera roll that comes up when you search yellow car. This is a delightful little rabbit hole. For me, it's this utter beast that I saw randomly in Edinburgh.

For every muppet writing in the guardian about “tree planting is bad” we lose a few donors, but every time I explain how this works as a backstop for projects that otherwise never had a chance we gain a few more. Ask me anything. I can explain more about this whole thing than those clowns.

Every Friday I'm just waiting for my feral goblin energy to be released.

The U.K.'s scramble to find an effective age verification method underscores that there isn't one, & politicians around the world must take that seriously– especially those pondering similar laws in the U.S., EFF’s Paige Collings writes for @TheRegister.com. www.theregister.com/2025/08/21/...

I'm not saying every Uber Lime bike rider is an awful person, but they're 100% the same people who push on trains before you get off and watch their phones at full volume in public. The BMW drivers of bicycles.

It's only been a few times I've made this serious of a mistake, but I got a "white pizza". This only happens because I don't notice that tomato sauce is missing from the listed toppings because how can you even call that a pizza? No tomato? We already have a word for that: cheese on toast. Criminal.

Handy! web.dev/blog/baselin...

Currently obsessed (like, just stick it on repeat, I love it) with this #cover of Teenage Dirtbag by Sega Bodega and Dorian Electra. The drawn-out vocoder-coded delivery of "he drives an IROC" is too perfect. (Five year old cover of a twenty-five year old track) youtu.be/-JA36857TBs

I miss the serif era. And obviously it goes without saying that the initial WordArt era is untouchable.

Email addresses are very simple, and you will score highly in this quiz. e-mail.wtf

Some legend dropped these off at the local free library box which is otherwise full of children's books. They're from 1987 and 1989 respectively, over 36 years ago! Time to break out the crimping tool.

If only they'd used `contain: strict`

i have compiled a list of free image resources inspired by our conversation about this last week. livelaugh.blog/posts/non-ai...

New Sunday Times profile in which I succeed, like a fencer in a 2hr marathon match, in fending off Qs abt my personal life & consistently turning focus back to my work & ideas. (Contra the interviewer's claim, many ppl do know me! They're called friends, & you know who you are ❤️) archive.is/BtZD0

The UK’s Online Safety Act is being sold as a way to protect children. But instead, UK politicians are pushing sweeping censorship and forcing platforms to implement invasive age checks. This is not safety–it's surveillance.

Baseline for CSS properties now in Chrome DevTools https://web.dev/blog/baseline-devtools-css?hl=en

Separately, I continue to believe that if someone were to get ahold of and publish all the naughty conversations, backroom deals, and private chats made by supporters of Chat Control, there'd be no Chat Control. It's a shame lawmakers never have to dogfood their own policies.

The largest number of arrests in a single day this decade! Wow, that must have really dealt a serious blow to the criminal underworld in London. Dozens of car thieves, street robbers, drug dealers and fraudsters off the streets…

Really I just want someone, AI or otherwise, to assure me there are zero bees in my blueberries.

I'm still all about the cookies, so the new cookie prefixes in Chrome 140 are my favourite feature. __Http and __HostHttp mean you get a double assurance that a cookie is not accessible to JavaScript. I need to update the good cookie recipes...

BBC has been doing some excellent internet history pieces recently. This one captures some of those feelings about weighty 90s hardware as well as links to vintage sites (become a gnome, etc.) www.bbc.com/future/artic...

VPN apps are dominating the top 10 of the App Store in the UK at the moment. I wonder why 😉

Our weekend reading: "Analyzing the Waste Generated by DOGE," a new report from the Senate Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations. 👀 www.hsgac.senate.gov/wp-content/u...

The UK’s Online Safety Act doesn’t make kids safer online—it just censors the internet and invades everyone’s privacy.

On my way to Dublin to give a talk this evening at the Google offices for GDG Dublin on all the improvements we’ve been making to Chrome DevTools. Say hi if you’re going and I might even reward you with a shiny Chrome dino sticker…

People really don’t understand how much effort goes into making the web secure by default. Seemingly unrealistic niche edge cases are argued over endlessly on the path to standardisation. And then mobile apps just ask for everything on install and usually get granted it: idiallo.com/blog/dont-do...

Thank heavens we have the Online Safety Act in the UK to protect us all from this sick filth.

I like what I see. developer.mozilla.org/docs/Web/API...

Finally! Justice for Wile E. Coyote.

Wow, tried fresh in-season corn on the cob and apparently I've been eating the bootleg weird colour VHS version because there's a whole new layer of flavour! What food did you properly discover when you tried the good version, or vice versa when did you discover the disappointment of the store copy?
