it needs to start becoming clear that many, many of the best people in the industry are being so affected by the bin fire that ravenous corporations have turned the internet into that they’re leaving it behind it’s bad, and it’s worse without them

Google basically say: it's all worth it. But is it? Google now has to burn 1.5x as much energy to make the same $1m in revenue. Compared to 2021, are you getting 2x the value out of Google's services, to justify 2x the climate disasters they'll cause? Is this a good trade-off, to you?

NEW BLOG FOR YOU Google's energy consumption numbers in their new climate report are mind-blowing. 2 years ago they flipped from linear to exponential growth, and their climate impact is blowing out, too. A WILD testament to the obscene bloat and waste of GenAI: ketanjoshi.co/2026/07/01/g...

One of the best changes to HTML IMO in a long time. This API (well, maybe it's not an API) has the chance to change how we build sites - and it's an actual good use for the <template> element :D

As requested by @liabelle.me here are all the unique features of @mu.social which I will keep up to date as we progress

Today the good people of the world commemorate the passing of Google Reader thirteen short years ago on July 1, 2013. To honor their memory (and in lieu of flowers) please add an RSS/Atom/JSON feed to your web site and keep building a web that connects people in meaningful and positive ways.

Every public repo's CI config is world-readable. So I read how Spring Boot, OkHttp, Mockito, JUnit 5 & detekt actually run their builds. They disagree about almost everything, but quietly converged on the same GitHub Action. blog.gradle.org/running-gradle-github-actions

There's an ideal set of sizing constraints for custom <select>, but the CSS is a bit tricky. Here's how to make it work, and a tour of new CSS features along the way. jakearchibald.com/2026/goldilo...

👋 @developer.chrome.com, any idea what's missing misconfigured on mu.social ? I added it to home screen on my Android phone and it doesn't update since then: still on version 1.124.0, and still using the bluesky blue in custom chrome tabs' chrome (fixed in manifest.json nearly 2 weeks ago in 1.125)

Doesn’t matter what it is, please tell me honestly, how much money do you spend per month on your main hobby? I’m working on a talk and I’m curious to get a wild figure. Feel free to reply, DM or email me. 100% no judgement, just amateur data research. Boost for reach please 💖

In programming languages that do not use templates or generics, I use the Unicode symbols ᐊ and ᐅ as visual mnemonics, like MyTypeNameᐊint64ᐅ. Works for me but coworkers think I am Satan.

Did you know you can start a testing ATProto OAuth client with this simple command? $ pnpx @atproto/oauth-client-browser-example 8080 You can then use the inspector console to interact with your PDS: `await bskyClient.get(app.bsky.actor.profile)` `await bskyClient.list(app.bsky.feed.post)` ...

I saw a great introduction to CSS Grid Lanes, aka Masonry Layouts, by @patrickbrosset.com at CSS Day 2026. I liked the versatility of its use cases, but I was also concerned that it's inaccessible by default. matuzo.at/blog/2026/gr...

When reality surpasses fiction! Top: fictional forecast for August 2050, broadcast by French TV in 2014 to warn about the consequences of global warming. Bottom: Real French forecast for yesterday, June 22, 2026.

I wrote a small article explaining how to animate the <dialog> element using the View Transition API. The article also goes into Invoker Commands API and it concludes with some handy tips and tricks that improve the default behaviour of the <dialog> modal. pqina.nl/blog/animati...

More than once I have heard techies in the EU lament that we are going to "lose the AI race". When I ask how that's measured, they say "Isn't it obvious?" No, it's not. Forcing the tech dev to slow down to consider the human and societal implications is a win. www.nature.com/articles/d41...

Aligning things in a CSS Grid Lanes layout. This is something I didn’t cover in my #CSSDay talk, but that’s quite exciting and useful. patrickbrosset.com/articles/202...

A brief 🧵 for all outside the #atproto bubble on why, from a digital industrial policy perspective, this step is deeply bewildering. There's @eurosky.social – open source, non-profit, fully aligned with the EU's open source strategy. It provides all that W has, & more. And yet, the Commission...

You can now limit open pull requests for users without write access to your repositories! github.blog/changelog/20...

Interesting approach by the @ec.europa.eu to just ignore their own scientific service (JRC), which only 8w ago explicitly recommended to support @eurosky.social in this paper: https://publications.jrc.ec.europa.eu/repository/handle/JRC144603

til w social client became closed source; a lil concerning since some high level eu officials moved to w instead of eurosky, might be the start of a "big tech but eu" trend from W Social, Public Institutions and the Theater of European Digital Sovereignty by @elenarossini.com

SCOOP: In early June the European Commission unveiled its Tech Sovereignty Plan, which emphasized their commitment to #OpenSource. Just recently, they migrated their main ATproto accounts to #WSocial, a for-profit network that has quietly gone closed-source. blog.elenarossini.com/w-social-pub...

🤔 What if browsers on iOS could use their own web rendering engines? What would, e.g., Blink look like on iOS? Spoiler: it would be awesome 😎 Check out @kylealden.bsky.social's fun perf and feature comparison between Safari and our prototype Blink-based browser: www.linkedin.com/pulse/test-d...

This is interesting because it’s the first RFC I’ve seen past 10K, and also because it’s interesting. https://www.rfc-editor.org/info/rfc10008/ #http #rfc #ietf

Customizable select is so powerful -- it's fully style-able with custom arrows, icons, color swatches, rich option layouts. But to make sure everyone can enjoy it, there’s one rule to follow: always include text in your options. We show you why this rule is so important: webkit.org/blog/18117/t...

When you login to mu for the first time we ask for your birthday because of age assurance requirements but the only record we keep is if your account is 13+, 16+ or 18+

this is actually a very good article

New, by me at this.weekinsecurity.com: Meta has filed a data breach notice confirming *thousands* of people had their Instagram accounts hacked as part of a months-long campaign abusing its Meta AI chatbot. Meta's breach notice shows the account hijacks were far more widespread than first thought.

I just want to purchase something from your store. I do not want to make an account first nor do I want to do a survey afterwards. Take my money, give me the merchandise, and disappear. That is all you need to do and all I want you to do.
