Mozilla is taking an important message to campuses and challenging the companies that often recruit there.

@jeremiahlee I guess #TheRising20s also works for the planet’s temperature and sea levels.

This is happening faster than scientists predicted. We are so fucked. 😔🌍🔥

I am having climate change anxiety. This winter in Stockholm has been historically warmer by 5-7°C. Every day I wake up and think, “This is not right. It shouldn’t be this warm yet.”

“Sex Education” season 2 on Netflix was perfect. Candid discussions about relationships, sexual and otherwise. Representation across the spectrum. And such a great soundtrack.

My 3 most recent employers (InVision, Spotify, Fitbit) have had 10+ people dedicated to building an internal PaaS on Kubernetes/Mesos. Typically when lots of co’s are building the same damn thing, a winning 90% open source solution emerges. I wonder why that hasn’t happened yet.

(I had to wait a day because my barber was on vacation and gays are most powerful immediately after a haircut.)

I went for a walk along the water at sunset sipping a latte and listening to Tycho wearing a silver puffy coat and purple shoes. https://songwhip.com/song/tycho/no-stress-instrumental

Forcing the use of Slack threads is an indication a company likely is using Slack for things it should be using better tools for.

Every time I see something about supporting local bookstores, I wish publishers did their own ebook sales so they/authors could get more revenue from a direct sale, but they’re too afraid of piracy and—welp—I’m never buying tree books again, so their loss is Amazon’s gain. 🤷‍♂️

about:performance (type it in the address bar) became one of my most used features in Firefox last year.

When my laptop’s fans go crazy, I can identify the tab that is being naughty.

Far too many websites—unjustifiably—have a notable energy impact when in the background.

My iPad mini and my Fitbit Versa 2 are my only rechargeable devices remaining that do not use USB-C or Qi to charge. I hope their successors adopt one or both standards by the time they need to be replaced.

Just wasted an hour. Counting down the days to 2021-04-30 when Node.js v10 is EOL and everyone can safely assume use of ESM…

Helluva morning with that news to wake up to…

Bring too many browser tabs in to the new year?

Try the Tab Tosser extension. It automatically closes tabs you’ve forgotten about.

If you really needed the info in that tab, you would have taken action already. Let it go.
