Dear devs,

It's NEVER ok to lock people out of a webapp because their User-Agent doesn't match your predefined list. 😡

Especially webapps they need to manage their healthcare.

(I am in fact using one of the browsers on this list, your code just isn't able to tell.)

:boost_love: Please boost for basic education.

OMG, the South Park episode about ChatGPT is making me wheeze with laughter and I'm only 5 minutes into it.

"If the recent Twitter debacle has taught us anything it is that platforms aren’t stable. Tying your online identity to a corporate-owned website is fine for a while but in the very long run anything posted there is, ultimately, ephemeral....The only thing we can really rely on on the web is the web itself.

It is ubiquitous enough to be mostly decentralized, has backward-compatible standards that are mostly agreed-upon, and is mostly resilient to attack..."

This line about AI makes me laugh but also I want to use the term more 

Outlook for free on Mac is pretty nice! techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5 They should do that with the x86 Windows Outlook too... the Outlook PWA Microsoft is working on is terrible.

I think I finally learned how to get WordPress running in NGINX with multiple server blocks. Phew!

Hasan Minhaj deactivated his Twitter account on air during Wednesday night’s “Daily Show.”

Worth watching if only for the moment when he calls Madtodon the “Canada of Twitter” 😆

Joanna Stern recommending LastPass as a solution to the iPhone passcode thief problem seems irresponsible, huh?
