I'm late to this, but I'm really curious why no one seems to be confused about the 37 dimensions thing. I thought that as best we could determine there are only 4 dimensions 🤔 phys.org/news/2025-02...

What do you wish was different about using the web? Why? I mean all of it. Everything from specific web pages that bother you, designs, the way tabs work, browser settings (or lack thereof), customization options, internet governance, etc. What don't you like? What could be better?

I've quoted this passage from Trump -- where he states his intent to cause riots and US economic collapse -- so many times. He flat-out announced it on Fox News in February 2014. In my book HIDING IN PLAIN SIGHT I quote my own 2016 essay warning of his plan: www.hidinginplainsightbook.com

It's standard practice to publish bad news on Friday in the hopes that it gets buried over the weekend What's funny to me is that this (a) makes it easy to observe when it's happening and (b) works nonetheless

This whole article seems intentionally positioned to sew fear, uncertainty, and doubt. If an attacker is able to do this on your computer, then Chrome is just an implementation detail cybernews.com/security/hac...

There's a lot in downtown Oakland that seems to just be abandoned (or at least disused). Out of curiosity I started poking around on local government websites to see what I could see Seems WAY over valued compared to neighbors and for that privilege they have ~80k in taxes in fiscal 2024

I think I know why Bluesky doesn't quite feel right: I need to follow more people working on the web apps & web standards

Import maps are a great way to minimize cache invalidation in your module tree. But up until recently, they had a ton of sharp edges. So we fixed them!! shopify.engineering/resilient-im...

One of the weirdest moments to me in Google's I/O keynote was when they showed families doing science experiments in the yard at home while wearing Android XR glasses. It's a bit of a stale joke, but I genuinely struggle to imagine owning a home

Similarly, I harvested some kind of capacitor or speaker or something from an old toy. It had a pair of wires coming out of it that electricity obviously ran through and I had an outlet on the wall that was full of electricity. I put the ends in the socket holes and I basically flash-banged myself
