Progressive enhancement never went away, companies just decided that "mobile vs desktop" was the only progressive enhancement they care about.
Meme format with astronauts looking at earth, now with the Line Mode text-only browser from 1990 overlaid. Front astronaut says Wait, it's all progressive enhancement? Second, with a gun says Always has been.

AI, the kind the companies want normal people to use in their everyday lives, was invented by bad dorks who can't think about or make or do anything fun or cool or social, and they keep trying to sell it to us as a tool to outsource the doing of cool fun social things as if that's appealing.

Sometimes you look at an old HTML document and see some weird tags and snippets from bygone eras. I've complied many legacy HTML bits I've noticed and documented what they were and why there were present. Many of them are rather obscure. Satisfy your curiosity: vale.rocks/posts/html-r...

The progression of certain thinkers from denying the validity of trans people to denying the validity of disabilities is a nice illustration of the way in which transphobic habits of mind can quickly evolve into a kind of acquired sociopathy.

Perseids xkcd.com/3287/
4-panel comic. (1) [Three people. The person on the left has shoulder-length hair; the person on the right has a white hat.] PERSON 1: I’m sad that we missed the Perseids. PERSON 2 with hat: There’s still the Geminids. PERSON 1: Yeah, but they’re in December. (2) PERSON 1: The Perseids happen when it’s warm enough to lie outside with a blanket, and we found a good mosquito-free beach. So we just lie around watching the stars and eating snacks. One year we saw the aurora. (3) PERSON 3 with shoulder-length hair: You know, I think I heard that the Perseids might be late this year. PERSON 2: Yeah, actually, I heard that too. (4) Later… [Three people lying down gazing up at stars in dark sky. One meteor is in the sky.] PERSON 3: Hm, seems like a normal number of meteors. Guess I heard wrong. PERSON 1: Maybe the Perseids are *next* weekend. PERSON 2: Oh, good thinking. Let’s come back then, just in case.

@lea.verou.me Stupid question maybe but I see that MDN states that the "light" value of prefers-color-scheme is also true if the user has no preference. Hypothetically, how would I make my website dark mode by default and only show light mode if the user has it explicitly selected?

So many career/life skills boil down to seeing things from someone else’s pov and focusing on value for THEM, not YOUR needs. The only variable is who you’re empathizing with (friends, customers, biz partners, etc). Perhaps Empathy is as fundamental as Math and should really be taught at school?

How long until we have vagina checks for women atheletes? The trans-hysteria was always a way to police women’s bodies. Soon vulnerable athletes will be forced to submit to genital checks. Because abuse in sports wasn’t rampant enough already? Yahoo news publishes disgusting lies, harms women

My man.
This is Megalon, a bipedal, humanoid, burrowing insect-like daikaiju resembling a beetle, worshiped as the god of the subterranean Kingdom of Seatopia. Following a series of nuclear tests, Megalon was sent above ground to seek revenge against humanity.

Megalon has two drill-like front appendages, which ihe uses both for burrowing and as weapons, and he possesses a set of wings usually protected by a beetle-like shell.

Megalon also has a horn similar to a Japanese rhinoceros beetle. 

In this picture of Megalon, he is colored the hues of the trans pride flag, and is standing in front of a grey background.

The text around him reads: Megalon says Trams Men Rock! 

I could not tell you why, but I know it to be the purest truth that Megalon exudes the most powerful of trans masc vibes. 

He is a KING,
