This felony conviction is the only thing Trump has actually earned in his entire life.

Massive leak at #Google confirms what we have all known for years, just how much is tracked, stored, and monetized.

Even clearer now how Chrome tracks and reports EVERYTHING you do. For heavens' sake delete it now and move to Firefox

Also they've outright lied for years about their data collection and search practices.

Looks like 'Don't be evil' wasn't enough. ;)

Just, get off Google products already!

This got bigger than I expected on LinkedIn, so I figured I'd repost it here.

Well, since it’s now public knowledge, my time at my current gig is ending soon. More details on my next challenge will be coming soon.

In the meantime, I have a lot of people to say “thank you” and “so long” to. Who knew that in 9 years, I’d make so many good friends? Here’s a few things I learned in my first 9 years of software and test automation development:

📣 The new Navigation module is a big step forward for aesthetics and customisability. It just landed as alpha experimental in Drupal 11's development branch. If declared beta in time, it will also be in Drupal's 10.3.0 release. 🤩

If you use Homebrew on MacOS, you're affected—do 'brew update' and 'brew upgrade’.

The new version of #Drupal's toolbar has been de-jQuerized. That's not a real word, but we're using it anyway!

All #jQuery has now been replaced with vanilla #JavaScript.

Many thanks to everyone who worked on it, especially ‘Bots @ckrina, @chrisd and Matt Olivera!

It's after 10pm here on a Saturday night, and my music-finding post is finally done and posted! ⚡

I know we all find music in different ways, and I wanted to write a bit on it. These are my methods and tools. Comment away on your own methods and tools-- I'd love to see everyone else's process, too!

Thanks to everyone who inspired this post, including in HUGE part @buffyleigh @starshaped and @Defiance.

Also tagging @HailsandAles @bendaubney @hl @skullvalanche @wendigo @DanielTuttle @BlueGambit86 @cory and I hope that anyone else that reads it and likes it gives me a shout.

Some A Book Apart news: after 14 years and over 60 books, we’ve decided to stop publishing new titles. More details about why and what comes next in our post below.

The books will continue to be available through us for a time, and then through our distribution partners after that.

I recorded a talk today in which I (re)introduce you to the Cascade. It covers well-known and not-so-well-known basics as well as cascade layers and scoping. Enjoy! ❤️

PS: automatic captions are pretty great but not perfect. I'll try to improve them later this week.

Coming soon to Eleventy Image: Nearly-free Image Optimization.

No more futzing with shortcodes, async versus sync-friendly template syntaxes, custom transforms, or markdown plugins.

Just write HTML and let our new transform plugin do the work for you.

Lots of great advice from Frances Duncan.

"PDFs are a symptom, not the root cause.

An organization's people, processes, and habits create the conditions for a website chock full of PDFs. These internal processes may have nothing to do with the website, but their output often ends up online."
