And no, we can't have a different order for borders and outlines, or for box-sizing: content-box vs box-sizing: border-box.

The @csswg needs your input!

We just resolved to support multiple borders and outlines per element, comma separated! 🎉

But we can’t decide on the order: inside out or outside in?
What feels more natural to you, A or B?

Cloudflare just published a vibe coded blog post claiming they implemented Matrix on cloudflare workers.

@julieofthespirits Agreed top to bottom.

A side branch: I’m newly frustrated by the way “concentration camp” has become synonymous with “death camp.” The distinction matters because the Nazis operated concentration camps for many years before they turned them into death camps; the original official plan was to •deport• all the Jews from Europe. It turned into mass killing only when deporting that many people proved impossible. And by missing that distinction and forgetting that history, we fail to notice that (1) DHS is most certainly building and operating concentration camps, (2) they are not death camps yet, and (3) this trajectory is exactly how death camps eventually came about under the Nazis. So we miss both the urgency •and• the possibility of action!

Patreon is lying again, and blaming Apple, again.

Once again, Patreon is going to strong-arm all of us into "charge at the moment of sign-up" instead of "charge on the first of the month." They have wanted this for years, and once again they are saying that Apple has given them cover to demand it.

Here's what I wrote when they tried to pull this shit a year and a half ago and then chickened out:

Celebs say TikTok censored them after calling out ICE:

"In her Instagram Stories, Eilish posted a screenshot of Finneas’ anti-ICE TikTok video that showed him only having 114 likes, writing that “TikTok is silencing people btw.”"

Even if I have to hold my nose, I believe celebrities calling out corporate social media is largely a good thing.

It's probably too soon to say anything definitive about AI psychosis. It's above my pay grade to know if this is pop-sci or a real thing.

I kinda sorta abandoned the I ❤️ Websites initiative 😬. But today, I went back to its omg.lol page and noticed that I have 4 years of hosting pre-paid. I'm not sure if I did that or not??

Anyway, it's a sign for me to stick with it. Give me grace I'm trying :)
