‘No, “the Church” did not kill Joan of Arc, you credulous dullards – Going Medieval’

The solution fixation trap emerges when a team rushes into discussing possible solutions before fully understanding the problem at hand.
“Solution Fixation Trap” A new synonym for “software development” just dropped.

It’s unacceptable that we introduce native barriers in HTML and the web platform in 2023
What I’ve been working on. Ready soon. Would love to hear feedback on the pitch 🙂

“Uncluttered: Free yourself from Node with import maps and test-driven web development”
So, I’ve updated the course description page yet again. Think it’s getting close to accurately representing what it’s all about.
I’ve also settled on what I think is the final title for it:
“Uncluttered: free yourself from Node with import maps and test-driven web development”
“Warner Bros. Reverses Course on ‘Coyote vs. Acme’ After Filmmakers Rebel”
‘David Zaslav Admits Striking Writers Were “Right About Almost Everything”’

The horse died. And the airline is Icelandic. As if we aren’t in the news enough these days.

“Don’t read the comments” is one of those rules that is sometimes great, sometimes causes you to miss out on good stuff.
But it definitely applies to Youtube videos on the events in Grindavík. So many assholes.

Me to brain: “Why am I so stressed?”

Me to brain: “That can’t be it.”
“HTML Web Components: An Example - Jim Nielsen’s Blog”
I’ve been following the discourse around HTML Web Components and it strikes me that quite a few web devs just don’t have any experience with things like HTML template partials or serverside template rendering in general

This whole “will there be an eruption or not” situation is distracting
Unfortunately, it’s likely successor—“an eruption is spewing ash and gas all over the south and southwest of Iceland”—isn’t likely to be less distracting
But at least people and animals are safe.
“Fieldwork: Adding improv to the mix — Chocolate and Vodka”
I got into reading books on improv a while back because I found the ideas helpful with both writing and collaboration.
The video in this feed shows how extensive the damage to Grindavík is.
Half the town sank by an entire metre and seems to still be sinking. (The steam is from broken pipes.)
