Does anyone have any suggestions for trying to use element.getAnimations() or getComputedStyles while there's another action spamming recomputes on the page? They return empty in this case, even when behind a requestAnimationFrame.

When open source projects reject a PR, we're not doing it out of animus. Many times people create PRs with valuable changes, and while correct, would break so many people that we can't land it without a massive effort. We can't always commit to that. A lot of factors go into these decisions.

Does anyone know if `element.getAnimations()` causes a reflow, like getComputedStyles does?

I was in Paris for a long weekend between Friday and Monday. In that time, I walked 82,788 steps for a total of 58.53 km / 36.37 miles. My feet still hurt, but it was worth it.

Angular lived through a renaissance recently
With new features and improved DX but also betting on Vite & testing via Vitest

For those that are trying to learn more advanced JavaScript, currying is when you take a function and then serve it with a creamy sauce and some spices typically with meat, fish or vegetables. Hope this helps!

I went an entire day not noticing I had two different shoes on. Same type of shoe, but different colors. I only discovered it when I took them off when getting home. I'm not sure whether to be embarrassed or impressed.

I'm having one of those days where I'm just totally exhausted and don't feel like doing much. The heat is likely contributing.

I never read the word "Apropos" as it's supposed to be pronounced. I read it as it's spelled and it messes me up every time.

Angrily shouting "Representative!!!" at an automated phone system qualifies as prompt engineering.

Is it "use-case", "use case", or "usecase"? My brain always wants to make it one word, but Google docs keeps reminding me I'm wrong.

Happy Pride everyone.

What I’m thinking about this Pride is, despite their attempts to make us go back in the closet, there are more of us now than ever before.

They couldn’t make us go away if they tried their hardest.

The Angular Mascot RFC is live and you should go vote. I'm really pulling for the Angular fish designs. So definitely vote for 2️⃣ or 3️⃣. I guess you can vote for 1️⃣, if you like it, but you're missing an opportunity for an adorable pun mascot.
