Inclusive design teaches us about alternate input modalities, and loves to use "holding a newborn with one hand" as an example, but I think there is also room for "your needy dog thinks using the trackpad is petting the laptop and gets jealous."

My book turns 4 in October and I was originally thinking of making it $4 but at least for the print on demand version, I have to at a minimum make it the cost of printing. What sounds good to folks? $10.04 (October 4, the original publish date), 40% off, or some cool, secret third option?

Here's the official announcement of Parton's passing from her reps, along with the request that in lieu of flowers, the family asks for donations to be made to Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library at www.imaginationlibrary.com
NASHVILLE, TN (August 25, 2026) – Global icon and humanitarian, Dolly Parton, known to the world as a beloved singer, songwriter, philanthropist, actress, playwright, and author died peacefully today in Nashville, Tennessee. She was 80 years old.

 

Dolly is preceded in death by her beloved husband of 59 years Carl Thomas Dean (1942 – 2025), her mother Avie Lee Caroline Owens (1923 – 2003), and father, Robert Lee Parton, Sr. (1921 – 2000). 

 

A rhinestone life that shone bright enough for the world to see, Dolly will forever stand as an inspiration not only through her timeless music and prolific songwriting, but also her wit, warmth, and kindness that made us all feel like family. Dolly Parton’s legacy is one of love, compassion, and resilience. With a seven-decade career, she inspired multiple generations of artists and fans with her music and an unwavering commitment to making the world a better place. Her songs will continue to resonate with people of all ages, and her philanthropic work will have a lasting impact.

 

At Dolly’s request, a small, private service will be held for immediate family. Dolly’s fans and friends from around the world are encouraged to pay tribute to Dolly on social media by tagging @DollyParton or by leaving a message at www.dollyparton.com.         

 

In lieu of flowers the family asks for donations to be made to Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library at www.imaginationlibrary.com.

The “gooool” of the 2026 World Cup does not belong to Erling Haaland, Lionel Messi, Kylian Mbappe or Harry Kane. Instead, that honor belongs to Livano Comenencia of Curacao, the tournament’s smallest participant.

The thing I don’t get about the @bsky.app / Texas age verification law change is why it isn’t by account. The age is verified by device. So I now can only use it on one device, which is kind of ridiculous.

Grandparents and parents.

They qualify because they’re a country in the Dutch kingdom. The same way Scotland and England are both a part of the UK. You can pick to play where your parents are from or where you’re from. The Dutch team also has players from Curaçao. This rule isn’t even new, it’s 22 years old. Hope this helps.
Any player who refers to art. 5 par. 1[note 1] to assume a new nationality and who has not played international football [in a match (either in full or in part) in an official competition of any category or any type of football] shall be eligible to play for the new representative team only if he fulfils one of the following conditions:
a) He was born on the territory of the relevant association;
b) His biological mother or biological father was born on the territory of the relevant association;
c) His grandmother or grandfather was born on the territory of the relevant association;
d) He has lived continuously for at least five years after reaching the age of 18 on the territory of the relevant association.

It was! Thank you, thank you! The score may not look like it but we stopped I think 28+ goal attempts (last number I remember them showing on the screen at the game).

Sam @samkapila.com · 16/06/2026
I know the players wanted to not have that spread of the score, but just making the group stage and then getting the national language and that first goal was a cherry on top. We truly cheered well into the last stoppage time! We were singing and dancing outside the stadium after too!

Yes, but it is a Portuguese creole that is a mix with Spanish and Dutch too!

Curaçao’s other main language is a Portuguese creole called Papiamentu.

One of the most amazing things I’ve ever gotten to experience. I’m so proud of the Curaçao mens national football team. You truly made our island so proud. Phew, the way I sobbed through the national anthem.
Curaçao and Germany’s giant flags (a third of the pitch each) are rolled out before the start of their World Cup matchup. This is Curaçao’s first ever appearance at the World Cup, becoming the smallest country to do so.

There won’t be millions of people from Curaçao cheering on their national team in the World Cup, because Curaçao doesn’t have millions of people. Not even close.

The Blue Wave from tiny Curaçao is making World Cup history
Curaçao has already crafted a story like none other in World Cup history. The tiny autonomous territory of about 156,000 residents is now the smallest, both in terms of population and land mass, to make it to soccer’s biggest stage.
