Quick #accessibility tip: Rather than writing an alt text that says nothing but "image", you might as well just write one that says "fuck you".
To people/projects/organizations/companies promoting their software/frameworks/tools to software developers...
If your website shows virtually nothing about how your package works, but has a "Learn more" button, and clicking that "Learn more" button triggers a popup video rather than a page describing what your thing actually does, you've already lost about 93% of the initiative.
So don't do that.
Thank you for attending my TED talk.

This tool ⸺ made for web developers to use, mind you ⸺ has all these things that look like links. But when you hover your mouse cursor over them, you don't get a URL in the status bar. Nothing.
Of course, they're just divs with a special class, that an event handler *way higher up the DOM tree* detects click events on, and then redirects the browser. Ugh. 🤦🏻🤮😠
With web devs as its target audience! 😡🤯
@12thRITS Said with appropriate respect & a warm-ish internet-based cordiality:
You f*cking idiot!
If you complete control a person to the point where they love you then you've killed them. Don't do that.

I recently sprayed a textile with lots of chlorine because i wanted it to stop smelling bad.
it kind of worked but not as i had intended. and I only recognized it when my nose started burning.
Also, lock your poisonous spray bottles front caps after use 🤦
yeah i definitely treated a mosquito bite with solder flux pen, good job me
(the other pen is the correct one) (i have put the solder flux pen back where it actually belongs)
