Currently apoplectic that the Speech Recognition API hears “fuck” and outputs ['f***']. You puritanical Christian dickheads are at it again aren't you?

"Well, given matter can neither be created or destroyed, we're actually the same age. The perpetual process of our being recycled is just a little out of sync."

"That's such a millennial thing to say"

Found this in the garden of the other kids during a playdate. Wasn't sure what to say to their mother.

Me, a front-end developer: “This design is inaccessible, we need to do [x] to fix it. Users will thank us.”
Them: “We'll need to check with the design department.”
Me: “Look at me. I am the designer now.”

I brought a couple of copies of Minima Morlia by exiled Judeo-Marxist critical theorist and aphorist Theodor Adorno to @ReactConfBognorRegis with a personal note from me inside to give to the first people who ask for them!

Life does not live!

I'm writing about the <article> element now. To preempt myself, I just want to say: it's completely useless. I never use it. Why? Because it's designed to represent an independent piece of content BUT since the document outline algorithm has never been implemented and the element (inevitably) appears as part of a larger web page, it should be introduced with an <h2> heading. BUT it makes no sense to head an "independent, distributable" piece of content with a subsection heading. Trash 0/5.
