hello, I’ve been largely offline lately… just too busy with IRL stuff. Anyway, this is the newest member of our family, Teddy Bear.
The way our @codepen.io 2.0 editor deals with npm packages is pretty cool. 1. Detect package usage 2. Create/edit `package.json` file to reflect needed packages 3. Inject an `<script type="importmap">` into any HTML produced by compiler Here's using React in 53 seconds.
How good is being a full-stacker? You can make anything you want!!
can you imagine making a feature that's so awful you have the most creative people on national television calling it a piece of shit and telling you to "FUCK OFF." on national tv.

I’ve been rewriting one of my home-cooked SvelteKit apps with Go and @data-star.dev. Had to wrap my head around the paradigm shift (I’ve never tried HTMX) and deepen my understanding of Go templates… but now that’s done, I’m loving the simplicity of this stack!!
yea so this is no big deal. ive been taking the lead protein powder for about six months and the only noticeable change is that lately I'm really into using LLMs to unlock critical strategic business insights
paris martineau@paris.nyc · 10mo agomy latest investigation for @consumerreports.org is based on months of reporting and 60+ lab tests of leading protein supplements we found that most protein powders and shakes have more lead in one serving than our experts say is safe to have in a day (🧵) www.consumerreports.org/lead/protein...
It's a long story but basically we've been without broadband for an entire week so I've had to survive on my spotty 4G connection. Most of the web doesn't work with a shitty connection but the worst offender for me and my needs has been github.com.

Shouts to the @ynabofficial.bsky.social team for making some top quality web software. I've been using the site for 8 years, have not run in to anything buggy or broken even *once*. I can do everything with the keyboard!
i just want software that leaves me the fuck alone you know what i mean?
of all the things I am not going to buy, this is the thing I am not going to buy the most
solved an edge case style override in @astro.build using CSS layers a little while back and got around to writing it up still extremely happy with Astro and its technical choices to lean heavily on web standards. makes stuff like this feel so natural 💜 codetv.dev/blog/astro-c...
CSS overrides without important using layers in Astro components
We used to need `!important` to override styles, but it’s not 2021 anymore and there’s a better way: CSS layers.

As a kid I was resentful about being made to learn classical piano while other kids got to play pop songs. Now I’m like why would I want to play pop when Beethoven is lit.
When I go back to a dynamically typed language (Ruby) after working in a statically typed language (Go) I wonder how I even built *anything* with this thing. Golang has ruined dynamically typed languages for me. (except for JavaScript of course… my ride or die.)
today’s drawing: ghosts - redrawing the little guys my kid drew for his haunted house. Tag yourself, I’m bottom left.
I think this might make me officially old and crotchety but I think iOS/iPadOS 26 looks terrible and I hate it 👵🏻😭
I love CSS folks. They are soldiers of joy and delight. The world is burning and AI debates have people at each others throats and CSS peeps keep being like “check out this dancing turtle I made out of divs 🥰”
people talking up their agents always be sounding like this
