@heydon Bless you. Please sell a REACT IS A CULT shirt. My wife saw me watching the video when that came on the screen and said “See, you’re not alone!” @heydon Amazing - the genocide->hooks transition is wonderful. Just in case no one has called it out yet - a link in your transcript has the text and link the wrong way round, so it doesn't render as a link - This is art. Modem noises assigned to Google taking data from you. https://axbom.com/the-creepy-sound-of-online-trackers/ (HT @aral)

For BLACK METAL FRIDAY (and from today) Every Layout is $30. That's a 56.521739131% discount! The code NONWHITE is applied for you at checkout: https://every-layout.dev/#checkout Last Friday I released a short video titled "What's The Deal With Large Language Models?" Here it is again, if you missed it: https://briefs.video/videos/whats-the-deal-with-large-language-models/ And it's also now on Youtube, if you partake: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rchEbQNMepw A T-shirt for lovers of the three core web technologies. https://webbed-briefs.teemill.com/product/not-you-tee/ I was not aware AccessiBe--on top of all its other crimes--tracked you without consent. https://better.fyi/trackers/acsbapp.com/ @heydon Ah, just noticed the stats are borked on the site, sorry. In fairness, though, it has been a few years now since we discontinued Better. @heydon And: 📼 People say self-documenting code is not possible. This is not true. Not only is it possible but it is recommended, in all cases. Let me explain, in this video. (warning: contains some flickering images) All of the products in the Webbed Briefs store now have clear descriptions, since I couldn't find a way to add alt text 😤 https://webbed-briefs.teemill.com/collection/new

@heydon Adobe PageMill. The OG WYSIWYG. |
@heydon took me 0.4 sec to switch away from ligatures after giving them a look

@heydon triple equals have three lines in Fira Code, the one I use.
But even with that, I understand this is a matter of personal preference.
