casual coder, continual crafter, choatic creator. he/him I fucking hate AI slop.

i just got the dreaded "our competitors are doing an AI thing, we need to do an AI thing" from my COO. Im beginning to feel like theres only so many times i can say "this is a REALLY bad idea" before I end up becoming a "not a team player"...

hey @cults3d.bsky.social what the hell? MGM does not own the english word "stargate" - they own the scifi-franchise that happens to have that word as a title... I'm totally on board with Copyright enforcement, but restricting *trademarked* words on *search* ? Are you Insane?!?

okay - so focusgroup as an html attribute... I love the idea, but I'm not gonna lie: the choice to sideline the entire grid piece makes me way less inclined to use it.

hey @vivaldi.com Can you make it so that "sign in with google" popup that sites sometimes use doesn't steal window focus? It's really annoying that I can't use basic browser hotkeys like CTRL+T, CTRL+F4, or anything of the sort after landing on a site that summons that popup.

who on the chromium team can I bribe to round out the print-adjacent features like leading(), element(), running(), cross-references, string-set(), and footnotes/sidenotes?

Turns out the firefox bug isn't *really* a bug - it's a slight ambiguity in the CSS spec that chrome was more permissive about than firefox was. It should work okay in firefox now. I still recommend chromium-based, but still.

Finished a prelim version of the new magic circle maker arcanigen.thatrobhuman.com Best user experience is in chromium-based browsers because it turns out that firefox has a bug where you can't use anchor() as a fallback for another anchor()
