While we're on the subject, if you link me a library and it's README is very clearly AI generated, I am clicking off immediately

🌶️ <template> is actually not good for true "templates" in the browser

A person saying they understand Design Systems because they know React is like someone saying that they understand cars because they know about gas.

Looking at you, FOSS

The real reason we built <wa-chart> in Web Awesome, for funny gags like this. codepen.io/paramagicdev...

It is actually okay to say no to tests that are largely just noise, despite the inner feeling of being like "its a test, i can't say no to a test!"

Wow. Nobody could have possibly seen this coming. There were totally no warning signs. Guess this guy is a shoe-in for president now.

“The value was never really about how many components were in the library. It was always about all the knowledge and decisions your team built up over time…” #designsystems medium.com/@rahul.rajwa...

Evergreen.

dear all developers including the OneDrive team; if you abuse application notifications to send me marketing messages ('find out how such & such works' is marketing) you *will* lose notification privileges and your app will probably be slightly less useful and might get replaced by one that doesn't

Building this has reminded me of this: bsky.app/profile/lea.... I really do want reactive templating without "driving a steamroller through the DOM" There's probably ways to get reactive templating using morphlex + <template> tags to re-use as many DOM nodes as possible.

man i just can’t with the claude-written announcements. you made an interesting thing, why not describe it in your own words? “but here’s the biggest unlock, and it’s the part that’s hardest to see” i already read this all day

It'd be great if NPM let you look to see if a name is too close *before* you try to publish. Also, if I type "flow-state", and nothing pops up, I think I'm good. Wrong answer. NPM's search seems to somehow miss the "flowstate" package when you search the word "flow-state" 🙃

So happy people are setting of fireworks right now that it's 10:30 and the kids are asleep

Got nerd sniped by @cory.laviska.com this weekend... Decided to revive stimulite and call it "downflow", the idea being "state flows down" and (ab)using global state rather than everything always having locally scoped component state. Not sure if this is a great idea or terrible idea 🙃

IME, design done at the highest level has little to do with the size of buttons or whatever. It's about deeply understanding the users and their problems, and coming up with creative, intuitive, and effective solutions to those problems. It's a profoundly human endeavor.

Hi, friends. The last 6 years have been a blast, but I just don't like being on The Internet anymore. I'm leaving DevRel, and I wrote a little bit about why. Look after yourselves, and each other. Love, Salma

Poetic CSS course is live for early-bird registration! Only available during July. Thanks for your patience, we had some last-minute fixes. #css courses.oddbird.net/poetic-css/

I’ll use the quote I did for this page. Miriam has a unique talent of being extremely technical with CSS but communicates that so seamlessly and so inclusively that regardless of what level you’re at now, you’ll be so far beyond that when you learn from her. A true super talent. A bargain!

This is seriously cool stuff, no more JS to OOO stream, in chrome 150! (the script in there is the SW registration)

Some people see networking as building transactional relationships that benefit them. I see networking as a way to introduce all my friends to each other so we can all get that bag.

We've seen very positive feedback while verifying projects and maintainers in the nom ecosystem during these past weeks. If you're interested in helping us scale the verification ops, join our community and get involved!

Could've been a real Forrest Gump moment if done in front of the reflecting pool. Regardless, I don't think I've ever seen this in my lifetime, wouldn't be surprised if he ends up in Fort Leavenworth. This is a very strict no-no, *especially* in uniform.

It feels bad sitting here taking days to write docs for various frameworks, but I think its worth it, even though it *feels* like its not really doing much in terms of "features", its important to document how to add Web Awesome into your stack, I just feel so slow at it 😅 technical writing is hard

I’m in a hard spot & working with limited executive function capacity. I could use help finding freelance, contract, or consulting leads. 💜 Hard to share. But here are my links too. TJ: ashleemboyer.com/tip-jar. CA: cash.app/$AshleeMFisher. PP: paypal.me/ashleemboyer. V: venmo.com/u/ashleemboyer.

Gaaahh I just LOVE the research I get to do for WCAG 3 as a W3C Invited Expert! The biggest hurdle for me is financial. I’m a self-employed contractor & consultant. Most of my time is finding paid work. All tips, donations, & referrals enable me to have more space for volunteer research. 🩷

why am i getting the urge to play Starcraft 2 again...

GitHub diff selection is uhhh...going great...

Was feeling terrible all day, fever, nausea, chills,dizziness, muscle aches, all the flu like symptoms. Started feeling better a few hours ago, and then right now just before bed, life decided to serve up a good ole slice of humble pie and the chills are back with a vengeance 🙃
