hey @developer.chrome.com is there any way to disable the baked in navigation transtitions on android? It's the same for native cross-document view-transitions, the transition will play after the swipe, which directly conflicts with the APIs use case.

I could appreciate some nuance to the situation when Bluesky initially verified some US government accounts. However, deciding to verify ICE as they murder, abuse, and kidnap people is either direct endorsement or a blatant lack of spine. I'm questioning remaining on the platform. #Bluesky #ICE

It’s been a very hard year - Andy Bell
Unlike a lot of places in tech, my company, Set Studio/Piccalilli has no outside funding. Bootstrapped is what the LinkedIn people say, I think. It’s been a hard year this year. A very hard year...

If you aren't seeing skeets from some of your fave people, they might have been labeled "Rude" by bsky mods. Idk what they are thinking, I don't need a mommy to tell me who to be buddies with. Anyway, go into Settings > moderation > bluesky moderation (advanced) and turn Rude off.
Rude
Rude or impolite, including crude language and disrespectful comments, without constructive purpose.

If you missed last week's episode of The Callback, you missed a certified banger, according to my old coworker. He doesn't lie, so you should really check it out.

This is the most personal project I’ve made in years. I launched a new show called The Callback. It’s weekly web dev news with my dumb humor sprinkled on top. If this pilot does well I get to make more, so watching, liking, and sharing would be DEEPLY appreciated 💜 www.youtube.com/watch?v=eMOD...

More than *anything* the people who actually know how technology works, who actually build things, wish that people would treat LLMs like every other technology, and be normal about them. Don't build a religion about them, don't force them on people, don't ignore the problems. Just be normal.

Oct 14 Firefox 144 will ship JS-powered view transitions with `startViewTransition`. 🎉 Of course, this is only the first step because we're all waiting for cross-document view transitions, too, but I'm still very happy about view transitions being on their way to work everywhere.

„AfD legt zu, Grüne verlieren" Heißt es in den Medien. Die Journalisten fragen Grüne, ob sie jetzt auch mehr Abschiebungen fordern werden. Aber auch richtig ist: „AfD verliert im Vergleich zur BTW, Grüne zweitbestes Ergebnis in NRW“ Framing in den Medien macht den Rechtsruck.

Making the first fun web thing in ages and of course it has to include shaders, async issues, SVG hacks, DOM-to-image rendering and Git LFS just for the extra spice. My "2 days in n out" estimate might have been a little too optimistic.

A friend once told me his wife called his inability to choose which of his passions to follow in his free time "hobby anxiety" and it since felt like a diagnosis once I get hit by the weekend. There is too much cool stuff in existence I want to tinker with.
