I spoke Swedish in my dream for the first time after about 8 months of daily app practice. I only said one sentence: “Jag är vegetarian.”

CSS Grid is such a beautiful abstraction. In less than 3 hours of studying it, I am creating magazine layouts on the Web my yearbook teacher in high school would be proud of.

Pssttt… The best perk of an ACM.org membership is its access to O’Reilly Learning (fka Safari Books Online). ACM costs $75 for your first year, much less than O’Reilly Learning. Be sure to sign up with your personal email address.

The brain drain at npm continues to concern me. I keep wondering why its board of directors does not intervene.

Yarn won’t save us because it uses npm’s registry.

Entropic seems promising, but I think a better effort would be to bring Deno’s URL-based module loading to Node. 🤔

The only way leaf blowers could get louder is if Dyson makes one.

My best 2019 tech conference talk idea is just a jeremiad of things I like that aren’t popular but should be.

2019 might be the first year since 2013 I don’t speak at a conference. 2018–2019 have been rebuilding years professionally. I don’t have anything insightful to say about them yet. Not a big enough audience interested in my thoughts on Firefox extensions or FitbitOS watchfaces.

IT DOESN’T NEED AMP. It’s entirely static, is as fast as or faster than AMP sites, and is served from a fast global CDN with aggressive caching.

My manager called me an engineering—product—design unicorn today so I’m at maximum flattery for the year. *twirls*

It’s just really, truly nice to work at a place where I can resonate.

Why is it so difficult to move files into year / month / day folder hierarchy based on creation date in MacOS? Thousands of people asking how to do this in search results. Zero elegant solutions.

A month ago, I bought an iPad mini for the primary purpose of trying Apple News+. Getting my brain off a slow drip of news and reading magazines instead has been good for my mental health.

A language requirement for citizenship is a cruel hazing ritual. It’s an anti-immigration stance.

Siri can set a timer.
Siri can tell you how much time is left on the timer.
Siri can cancel/clear the timer.
But Siri cannot stop a timer alarm going off.

Cooking with Siri sucks.

The only good thing in the world today is that I learned about "banana pose" which is just something seals do when they feel safe and content.
Just happy seal things.

Getting to buy STEM toys is one of the best perks of being an uncle. Arriving soon for my niece’s 8th birthday: jewelbots.com/products/jewelbi
