Why didn't anyone tell me Talking Heads got the funk. Speaking in Tongues is groovy as hell

🤯 Just encountered one of the wildest bugs of my career: A html page, containing a script tag, containing a "<!--" in a string, alongside a JS comment containing "<script>" It puts the html parser into a weird state which swallows all subsequent html into an unclosed comment

```html
<script>
const foo = "<!--"
// <script>
</script>
<div>this disappears</div>
```

This an excellent piece. Wonderfully written and full of compelling arguments. Too much critique is weak and reflexive. Which is precisely the opposite of what is needed. I highly recommend setting aside some time to read it

AI: virtually no subject provokes such vitriol in my communities. I can grant the haters many of its harms, but their solutions leave much to be desired. I fear for the future even as I wonder at the future we are living. And so, dear hater, I must write: shaping.systems/blog/ai-suck...

I've always disliked that the default for CSS animations is to specify in terms of time (transition-duration) and distance (translateX/Y). Since duration is typically fixed (eg 100ms), element dimensions change speed of movement. Doubling element size means doubling speed

Not my finest presentation, but tasty nonetheless

Noodles in a coconut sauce, served with pak choi, cucumber, a small amount of tofu. Topped with a hearty squeeze of lime, sesame seeds, crispy garlic, and crispy shallots

Hot take: collapsible UI sections should mostly be reserved for things which are initially collapsed. Collapsing to avoid scrolling is slower than scrolling

Made hummus for the first time

Tofu and chickpeas tossed in harissa paste and roasted. A cucumber, tomato, and coriander salad. Served on top of hummus flavoured with cumin and smoked paprika

For those that don't know. A super useful hidden feature

If you press the period key on a repo on github it'll open the repo in vscode in the browser, with language server and everything. It's much faster than browsing via GitHub and no need to mess around cloning

First day of my on-call shift and I'm awoken by a 7am alert because the entire app was down and everything was on fire. Hopefully not a sign of the week to come 🫩

Love to get a notification that my email address was involved in a breach for an American insurance company I've never used/heard of. I'm not American! Why do they have my data? We desperately need stronger laws around data brokerage

Starting a new game. Played the first a few years back. This one apparently leans more metroidvania

Absolutely loved this game. The art direction and colour palettes were sublime. The game loop was challenging without being unfair. Even the story (which I normally dislike in games) was well executed dealing with complex topics of with death, grief, acceptance

My tplink powerline adapter died today. Any recommendations for a replacement, or perhaps some mesh network hardware?

Three panel comic. Panel 1: a blue poison dart frog is posing confidently for two of his frog friends, who are both brown. One friend says, “whoa, dude!” And the other remarks, “nice paint job!” Panel 2: the blue frog, striking another pose, replies, “thanks. It’s designed to keep predators away.” Panel 3: a heron - without giving it a second thought - tosses the blue frog into its mouth and thinks to itself, “nice, blue flavor!” The two other frogs can only watch and scream in horror.

Has me dreaming about Encarta 95 which hinted at a future world of rich hypermedia that never quite came to be

Made a website where you can explore Wikipedia like it's a file system on your desktop: explorer.samismith.com

Building a little companion app for my piano practice. I find it hard to step outside of myself and analyse my timing/dynamics etc. So the goal is to have a super tight workflow where recording and segmenting takes is automatic and playback is as fast/easy as possible
