Anyone hiring a frontend developer in Canada? Circumstances have led me to start looking for my next job sooner than I would have liked.

I excel at working on design systems, cultivating a frontend culture, building with the grain of the web, and creating inclusive user experiences. Reach out if you need help with any of these!

I have deep knowledge of the web fundamentals (HTML/ARIA, CSS, JS) and the frontend ecosystem at large (build tools, frameworks, design tools).

My friend Mayank is looking for their next role! If you’re looking for someone who knows their stuff when it comes to design system and accessibility, reach out to them - they’d be a great fit for your team.

I buy all my books on bookshop.org, but I've found their search function to be pretty bad, unless you're looking for a specific book or author.

So I started going to Amazon for searches like 'books for boys 9-12' and then, once finding something I think my grandson will like, going to bookshop.org to make the purchase.

Yes, it costs a bit more (part of the money goes to a local bookshop), but it's worth it to not put any more money in Bezos' pocket.

It's Thanksgiving Day in the US and we're thankful for so much! That includes our space agency partners like NASA.

Their recent article on 25 years of science on the ISS includes work done with ARISS!

Read about ARISS & all the science at: https://www.nasa.gov/missions/station/iss-research/25-year-of-scientific-discovery-aboard-international-space-station

Alt text for the image:Astronaut Nichole Ayers smiles while floating in microgravity inside the International Space Station (ISS), holding a handheld radio microphone. She is wearing a black headband and dark shirt, with her hair floating upward. The background shows ISS equipment, cables, and various stickers/patches on the walls.Overlay text on the right celebrates “ARISS: 25 Years on ISS – Enabling global access to space via amateur radio events.” It highlights a recent NASA article recognizing 25 years of scientific discovery on the ISS, noting that ARISS (Amateur Radio on the International Space Station) has allowed astronauts to connect with students worldwide via ham radio since 2000. Key points include:Over one million students have spoken directly with astronauts through scheduled radio contacts. These events inspire the next-generation participation in STEM fields. Caption: “NASA image: Nichole Ayers talks with students from Lakeside Junior High School in Springdale, Arkansas.” The ARISS logo appears in the bottom right corner.

Nova flopped on Luna's computer, her front paws are streched out and placed on the power button, her back paws are hanging in mid air. She has a very weird expression, she's kinda mid bllink and mid licking her lips
Same but now she's mid licking her nose
She's done licking now, and just looking cute
She retracted her right paw, no longer threatening to press the reset button on the computer. But now she's very scrunchy , her mouth opened just a bit and her eyes mostly closed

“Since the sixteenth century, technological and economic change have produced enormous advances but also massive disruption. The disruption and the unequal distribution of its benefits stoke huge anxiety. Change and anxiety, in turn, leads to an identity revolution, with people searching for new meaning and community. And all these forces then produce a political revolution.”

we have been working on MathML interoperability across browser engines, making sure that formulas are rendered consistently regardless of your browser of choice.

i wrote about some of the highlights of our work and the challenges of contributing to three very different, large and opinionated codebases (Firefox, WebKit and Chromium). don't hesitate to leave any feedback or comment what you'd like to see next!

i am truly so happy to be able to work on open web standards alongside so many great people :blobhaj_tinyheart:

https://conflor.es/blog/2025-11-27-interop-and-mathml

Right to left math formula with a fraction, parentheses, a square root and an integral. All of the operators are mirrored. This writing direction is used in Arabic.
A series of math formulas with nested exponents, indices or fractions. The variables in the nested formulas are progressively smaller.
Three clockwise integrals. The first is written left to right, while the other two are written right to left. The issue with the middle one is that it is just mirrored vertically, so the arrow goes in the other direction and it is actually counterclockwise. The third one is a different character that is mirrored but has the arrow going in the correct direction.

I have lost my Arq backups through a series of tragicomical misadventures (on my end, not Arq's, although I think their UI for backup management could be a wee bit clearer). The first new one, for the Mac Studio in its new role as a server, finished in 48 hours—with 2355 errors.

I'm fairly sure 99% of those errors have to do with iCloud, which was apparently not syncing properly. I'm going to let it run again tomorrow and check the errors, then decide whether to set it to "materialize" cloud files. (It's one banana, Michael. What could it take up, 10 terabytes?)
