Shout out to @11ty.dev's Fetch plugin. Every time I've needed to do something I'd consider esoteric recently, it's had a clean solution – a perfect combo of simplicity on the surface to get started with and accessible low-level APIs. Solid work @zachleat.com!

I get why the prevailing sentiment is most developers hate writing tests, but whenever I skip writing tests for something seemingly inocuous and non-mission-critical, I still invariably come to regret it, usually by my third "Bug fix stupid mistake" PR.

Finally back working after 5 weeks off travelling Australia and New Zealand (and a brief but chaotic stag do in Lisbon). Having never had more than 2 consecutive weeks off since I started working at 16, I definitely recommend a long break – it feels like my brain is working at twice the pace now.

It's long past time we had a standard way to load CSS asynchronously. link[async] should work just like the tried and true print-media hack, but without the major downside of javascript reliance for applying CSS. Join me with a plus one here? github.com/whatwg/html/...

Fuck cancer. My little family has been torn apart. Our cat Ivan had to be put to sleep on Friday. We are blindsided – he’d had a little cough for a couple of weeks which was believed to be asthma or maybe pneumonia, but it turned out he had an aggressive lung cancer and deteriorated quickly.
