Feels like a lot of people in tech I used to follow managed to get known on social, then just lose all interest in tech and just shit post about politics all day.
Honestly, I haven’t been firing up blue sky as much because it largely consists of random liberal people being angry or otherwise talking shit about people who don’t agree with their politics.

Half the “tech” accounts I was following don’t even post about tech anymore.

CSS if() function landed today(!!!) in Chrome 137 🥳

along with another rad feature: reading-flow 🥳

So I put together a quick video showcasing both:

At this point the only George R R Martin news worth a shit is when Winds of Winter comes out.

If it ain’t about that, no one cares.

I think Nova by @panic.com should try to capture some of the WP developer market. There are still a lot of folks out there who are using SFTP to deploy or modify files, having that built-in (and well done) is a huge plus.

But the tooling and extensions are still lacking in nova. No real AI support

Every single article for the NYT has a paywall these days. Which sucks because some stories look good.

But I am absolutely never paying for a subscription that I cannot easily cancel and their subscription practices are customer hostile AF. So that’s a big no thanks from me.

Always seek data; never act on data alone.

Because not looking at the data is just ignorance, but believing that all important things are in the data, or that the data are measuring what you think they're measuring, is also folly.

financial advice in a weird time:

-- develop a plan
-- find friends who support you
-- preferably 10 of them
-- steal $160 million from the Bellagio, the Mirage, and the MGM Grand
-- yes those are Terry Benedict's casinos
-- get your wife back
-- one of the friends should be Don Cheadle btw

simple

Today, I finished building a really sweet mechanism in Full Site Editing:

The ability to have *multiple block areas*

Normally when you make a template for a given post, you only have one "outlet" for post content, which is the content block.

Joan’s writing is awesome give it a read if you haven’t.
This year, I founded an indie news blog doing long-form Op-eds.

It's 100% free and 100% reader funded. No venture capital, no ads, no bullshit.

And it is unapologetically opposed to Nazi fuckery.

Happy Transgender Day of Visibility. 

To the Transgender community in Illinois and around the country: You deserve to live your life proudly and openly. We see you and we will protect you.
Gov. @jbpritzker.bsky.social has a powerful message for our community on Trans Day of Visibility: Keep speaking your truth. 🩵🩷🤍

It's wild how many conservative/right leaning folks are buying the bullshit about vaccines.

I don't blindly believe anything I read (especially not from corpos), but I think these people seem to have a fundamental lack of respect for any actual science.

@monteiro.bsky.social you still selling any art? Is the best way to inquire via email still?

I don’t pay to use design software right now but if I did, it would prob be Sketch or Excalidraw.

While I like Figma well enough but holy fuck it’s expensive as hell now.

I’m building a backyard office shed and I needed to figure out how much drywall to buy. So I asked Claude bc I didn’t feel confident doing the math myself.

But I’m never going to ask Claude to design my interior or choose my furniture.
I think people will soon realize that AI isn’t good for creativity but is helpful to simplify tasks that previously were complex or hard to get right.

Math calculations are a great example.

"Every time we divide,
we put zeroes under the line,
and publish it as our proof,
that nothingness is divine"

than an off-duty cop,

Dear Tesla owners, when ACTUAL NAZIS show up to protect your car dealership it might be a sign that it’s time to get rid of your car.
The Idaho Liberty Dogs and The Old State Saloon are calling for people to defend a car dealership in a Boise suburb on March 29th.

Both groups have histories of Christian nationalism and antisemitism.

The Nazis behind "White Awesomeness Month" are going to defend a Tesla dealership with guns.
