I will attempt to shift my followers/following lists across. if you do not “hear” from me for a while, try manually following me there.

Just when FO2 starts growing on me, something else happens that kills off that goodwill.

Last night I discovered that if one of your computer-controlled party members strolls into a pit trap, it takes EVERYONE in your party to the floor below.

the Judge is quite correct:

“A complaint mechanism could become a political tool to paralyze the court or a playground for gadflies. However, a skillfully drafted code could overcome this problem. Even a nonenforceable code that the justices formally pledged to respect would be an improvement on the current void.”

This is great, but we need to understand just how long Apple held up the future (again) by stonewalling Element Internals, form association, DSD, Constructable Stylesheets, and much else.

It really does help to explain deep technical concepts in simple terms. For example:

React is an extra-work-maker with optional extra-work-skipping dials and knobs (known as "memos").

Web Components are work-doers with optional extra-work-making add-ons.

Looks like the Fifth Circuit sided with the DOJ in that crazy case out of Louisiana blocking the Biden Administration officials from talking to social media companies.

This is the preliminary injunction stuff, but hugely important.
