Web devs/content folks: is "above the fold" still an important consideration in web development?

Good morning from Washington, DC! I Decided to capture some photos at dawn on the shortest day of the year. It's chilly, but beautiful out.
I'm taking a time lapse video also that I'll share in a bit.

news indicates that, during the COVID-19 emergency, the Cuomo administration reported only 50% of the deaths in NY nursing homes… underreporting by half? ugly, indeed.
if our agencies are operating on the basis of data which lies, then our public policies and procedures are doomed to fail and citizens are doomed to sicken and die… ppl did not need to do so. former Governor Cuomo has much to answer for.

Somehow the release notes for the latest Safari Technology Preview missed the introduction of a native #HTML Switch widget via ! It even supports accent-color and nicely animates when you toggle it.
Load https://codepen.io/Rik/pen/gOEYZgE?editors=1000 to give it a try.
The release notes do point out other nice stuff as well:
- @scope
- vertical centering for block containers via align-content
- scroll anchoringhttps://webkit.org/blog/14885/release-notes-for-safari-technology-preview-185/

Not only is this not being done in a fearless way, it's not even happening in a *fearful* way! It's Democratic Party levels of self-defeating inaction in the biggest regulatory moment since BillG was deposed by the DoJ.
Gobsmacking dereliction of duty.

Like most old webheads, I harbor an incredibly deep well of good feeling towards Mozilla. I remember installing the various SeaMonkey R18+ releases on my Linux work boxes in, like, 1999 – at about the time I was president of a Linux User Group and helped to grow it to the largest CS student group at Purdue.
It's with that brainstem-level fellow feeling that I ask, in all seriousness, why won't they stand up for browser choice?

@sfaxon @bcantrill somewhat embarrassingly I often refer people to this ancient slide deck: https://ahl.dtrace.org/2005/08/18/dtrace-boot-camp/
My @oxidecomputer colleagues report that it’s been useful!
Regarding the relationship between dtrace.org and Oracle I’d say somewhere between indifferent and hostile.

truly a waste of the dog’s life, intel data unreviewed is in effect no intel at all:
“…reported to have been sent into the building in search of Hamas operatives after IDF troops came under fire from inside.
The animal was killed but the camera kept rolling and captured one of the voices of one of the hostages, believed to be Alon Shamriz shouting “help” in Hebrew and saying that there were hostages there, as their captors were killed by IDF troops in battle.
The dog’s recording appears not to have been monitored and troops then left the area. “
