More pics from my quiet vacation on Vashon Island

A serene waterfront scene at sunset, featuring calm waters reflecting the pastel hues of the sky. The horizon shows a distant cityscape with buildings and a few structures protruding from the water. The sky is painted with soft pink and orange tones, creating a tranquil and picturesque atmosphere.

A cozy café scene featuring a white ceramic mug filled with a frothy coffee beverage, likely a latte or cappuccino, placed on a dark wooden table. Next to the mug, a white plate holds a partially eaten piece of chocolate cake or brownie with a fork. The background includes a window with a view of some outdoor seating and a green car parked outside, capturing a moment of enjoying coffee and dessert

The image shows a tranquil shoreline with a sandy and pebbly beach. Several large pieces of driftwood are scattered along the shore, and a steep, tree-covered hillside rises up from the beach. The water is calm, and the sky is overcast, creating a serene and natural coastal scene. In the foreground, part of a blue kayak is visible, adding a touch of adventure to the otherwise peaceful setting.

Your wiki is not an SPA. If it comes with a copy of React served to every page, throw it out and start over.

A PSA that `content-visibility` continues to absolutely rock. Some weekend spelunking on layout costs led me down several blind alleys about selectors and font IPC costs (which did help), but the big win was to expand c-v use, which was a one-liner: www.webpagetest.org/video/compar...

Some APIs an up-and-coming web platform engineer could easily knock out, to universal applause: - brotli and zstd for Compression Streams - ImageEncoder for Web Codecs - ImageData in Custom Paint - a CBOR encode/decode API - a "fast JSON decode" w/ clean globals assurance

Two years ago, 200+ of us collaborated to build elk.zone. Would you be interested in an Elky Nuxt PWA Client for Bluesky? Elk has markdown code blocks. Do you enjoy tinkering with @vite.dev, @vuejs.org, @nuxt.com, @vueuse.org, @unocss.dev, @shiki.style, the @bsky.app API? Would you like to help us?

One thing I find interesting about the echo chamber complaint is that an echo chamber just won a presidential election. Put aside the convo of whether it’s “good” or “bad” for a moment. The far right has devoted enormous resources + time to building echo chambers & loathes spaces they don’t control

It will never not blow my mind that Republicans have introduced thousands of anti-trans bills and spent half a billion on anti-trans ads and somehow it's the Democrats that are labeled as obsessed with trans people.

The Bluesky web app is disappointing compared to Mastodon or the Elon hellscape. Slow, janky, not a PWA so no install prompt in the browser etc etc. Even the native app on Android is immediately noticeably slower compared to the Twitter PWA.
