Finally rewatching all the Fast & Furious films so I can listen to @darn.es and @rknight.me's podcast but realised they've only done 7 episodes 😭

DHL managing to offer delivery in the past. Got this email at 7am today (26th June)

Watching 2 Fast 2 Furious and my kettle wants a cameo

I'm building a platform that allows deploy previews/ephemeral environments for sites developed with #ddev. I'm looking for beta users to help test and suggest features mayfly.live Let me know if you have any questions

Does anyone run visual regression in CI pipelines? How do you handle pushing of CSS changes which will fail the tests? #vissualregression #ci

Raye's new album is a musical masterpiece. It takes a few goes but it is _so_ worth it. Every song is an absolute tune in its own right and every time you listen you discover something new. Listen to it in full. Listen to it on repeat. Listen to it loud.

Those that are interested in tracking & personal statement stats (e.g. Strava, Garmin, Goodreads, untappd, Spotify etc) - what services do you use the track/log stuff - what data are you interested in? #data #indieweb

My 4-year-old daughter was just recounting the story of Jesus and how he died on the cross and then "respawned" 😄

I've just stumbled across OpenClaw and I'm struggling to find tangible examples as to what you would use it for. Any examples would be appreciated

I've just got a new car and the B&O sound system sounds incredible (there's even a secret sub in the boot). Recommendations for good sounding albums please! bonus points if it doesn't have swearing so I can have it on with the kids in the car.

Seems to be a coming theme for the 21st in our house...

TIL: The <dialog> element uses the HTML5 "top layer" and sits above all z-index issues. Just spent an hour trying to work out why the recaptcha challenge for my modal form was appearing behind the modal 😒

It really baffles me why companies choose December to do all the "wrapped" stats and why they don't do it in January for the year before

Cheddar cheese and branston pickle is the ultimate starter pack for a crisp-enhanced sandwich. No other filling comes close to complimenting crisps. Especially pickled onion monster munch.

Guess that means it's lunchtime...

I feel like I need a third monitor now to be my "AI" window. So often I have Claude Code running and forget to check it - leave it for an hour and it's just sitting there on "can I move this file?"

Trying to have a proper crack at configuring Mega Linter (megalinter.io/latest/) It's potential is incredible, but trying to migrate existing linting config and set it up is mind bending. If anyone has any example config or tips, they would be appreciated!

@mmazzarolo.com Hey, thanks for your CSP post (mmazzarolo.com/blog/2021-12...) Been banging my head against the wall about `px.ads.linkedin.com` and I think your note near the end has hit the nail on the head!

If you're using Hetzner: I just saved over €10 a month (doesn't seem a lot but that's 25% of our bill) and increased resources of our VMs by rescaling them onto the new pricing. Worth a look!

Someone I know has had their wordpress website hacked but it only manifested itself if you come from a search engine. Explained to Claude Code (with Playwright MCP) the symptoms and within minutes it had identified the questionable requests and scripts along with an explanation as to what and why.

"Why do we have round lenses on cameras, but rectangle sensors and photos?" That and other shower thoughts that I think about quite a lot www.mikestreety.co.uk/blog/shower-...

Did I purposefully add 10 minutes to my workout this morning so I could listen to Taylor Swift's new album in full? Yes. Yes I did. #ts12

I've just got a MacBook M4 Pro and am looking for a single cable docking station for my 2 screens. I have HDMI on one and HDMI/DisplayPort/USB C (with DP Alt) on the other. Needs to also work with a Windows laptop. Does anything exist?

Would I be silly buying a MacBook Pro now or should I wait for the M5? Are prices going to jump up?

2 announcements in the last 12 hours getting me pumped

I've just set up and configured GitlabForm (gitlabform.github.io/gitlabform) for synchronising settings across all our repositories. Incredible and an absolute game-changer #gitlab

Dad joke FTW

So, shamefully, I've been "vibe coding" recently. Not so much at work but more for evening side-projects - being able to set something whirring while washing up is potentially a game-changer. I've een trying Gemini CLI and Claude Code and both are quite impressive. Any others people are using?

😒

Accidentally made that XKCD comic

If there was one thing I could change about how the internet, it would be that domains names go the other way (e.g. uk.co.bbc.www) That way it would make sense when listed alphabetically!

I've got a new computer for work and have been setting up the basic apps. What struck me was not once did I open the app store. All the apps I installed had a direct download link (some also had App Store ones too). Is there a general movement to boycott the App store?

Managed to replace the Start/Stop button in my car to fix it and now I feel like I can do anything

I miss the glowing apple that used to be on Apple laptop lids.

With the drop in price of the premium tier, I'm trying to decide if Gitlab premium is worth it. Is $900 less (for a year) as it stands which is pretty chunky. Anyone upgraded/running premium? Any unexpected killer features? #gitlab

Anyone know of a good, reliable portable air con unit suitable for a home office? #lazyweb

Today's annoyance is cyclists that are slower than you but then refuse to follow the rules of the road like stopping at red lights, so they sail past dodging pedestrians while you're waiting.

I'm doing the London to Brighton bike ride this year and I'm faced with a very first-world problem. Which of my bikes should I use? 🤔 #londontobrighton #cycling #bike

We dedicate our lives to making performant and accessible websites. And then Taylor Swift just has a massive image of text dumped on her homepage. It's important content, too (not just decoration) www.taylorswift.com

In #11ty, can I get the numbered index of an item in reference to a specific collection. E.g. if I had blog posts with category listing pages. Looping through the posts I can use the loop index, but it might be on a category page its post 2,6 and 7. Is that data available?

The only thing that makes the tedious task of implementing Contest Security Policies bearable, is the little smile I have a th bemusement of using the word _nonce_ in a professional context. For non-UK folks: it's a slang word

What a banging Friday night: Boshing out a new blog about running Playwright in Gitlab CI #playwright #gitlab www.mikestreety.co.uk/blog/running...

Something aesthetically pleasing about coffee in a jar

New blog post: Using Playwright to run your smoke tests www.mikestreety.co.uk/blog/use-pla... #playwright #deployments

When you spend most of your bike rides commuting along the seafront, _any_ kind of actual hill gets Strava Intelligence well excited

I've been looking at new #coffee grinders and have fallen into the Cinema pricing trap. Had a budget in mind, saw a grinder which was a bit more, read some comparisons about other grinders and the downfalls. Rinse and repeat I'm now set on a grinder which is twice the price of my original budget 🥲

Not quite sure how I managed 46 rides in April, but here we are!

I'm still looking for a general "web development" podcast. One that talks about new CSS or browser features, touches on PHP and JavaScript and Docker and AWS. Doesn't need to be evergreen, just "what's caught our attention". Anyone know of one? If not, do I need to start one 🤔?

When I need a new phone, I'm tempted to switch back to Apple purely for AirTags. There are a few that work with Android but no-one seems to have the confidence in their rand that they do with the Apple ones
