Do you know about :is() in CSS?

It's pretty handy!

This is what happens if you try to download and install Firefox on Windows

Bing: "you don't need to download a new browser, we recommend Edge"

Windows: "to protect your pc we recommend only running ms verified apps, use Edge"

Disgusting

In our meeting today we demonstrated and discussed nil/null as the dirty boolean value, especially baked in to SQL. If your boolean allows null, it is actually a trilean. But we have a stakeholder who wants "null" to indicate "you haven't filled this in yet; look here!" It's when the dirty booleans sneak up on you that you really need to watch out. And yes, we did discuss the optional third arg of getter functions, for when your business logic needs to know whether its NOT THERE vs when its just FALSEY.

It wasn't THAT long of a recording, but with RecondMyDesktop and three monitors, that's almost 300gb. No wonder it takes AGES to encode these things.

Airbus says its A380 aircraft has performed a flight powered primarily by used cooking oil.

This is the third Airbus plane to fly on 100% Sustainable Aviation Fuel in the last year. Airbus hopes to bring the world’s first zero-emission aircraft to market by 2035.

Things of beauty. Now I sometimes use text browsers to regain some of that... simplicity. Although the W3M text results are actually prettier.

I couldn't find a true cross-platform html->hiccup function, so I made one.

It takes less than 40 lines of code using Instaparse.

First attempt at some with nextjournal’s clerk library.
With a bit of thought I think this might be a really powerful blend of code and notes for nice parametric design

Wait... am I doing this right? I'll just go back to RPN and lisp...
