I have just had a profound realization. Browser tabs... are a gas. Think about it. They expand to fill all available screen real estate, then additional browser windows, then virtual desktops, then additional screens...

Theo went to the vet for a routine echocardiogram and returned with fur missing. Slightly concerned that U.S. forces may have attempted to lay an airstrip for an imminent invasion to seize THE FUZZIEST KITTY BELLY PUDDING.

Excellent reporting, alarming findings. Bloomberg's @dmehro et al found U.S. state government health websites are sharing people's personal info (sex, citizenship & race data) with tech giants via pixel-sized webpage trackers. Several states pulled the trackers after Bloomberg disclosed.

ALWAYS USE AN AD-BLOCKER. But really!

I have found another old 7" 45 rpm single that curiously causes the volume knob on my little stereo tube amp to go all the way up early on a rainy Monday morning..

i've been working on moving away from Tailwind, and one thing I'm realizing I appreciated about Tailwind is having a basic color palette (blues, grays, greens, indigos, pinks, purples, reds, yellows) I could use while prototyping

i extracted it into css variables so I can still use it if I want:

but now I'm curious: are there similar CSS color palettes like this out there?

DigiCert — a certificate authority, the entity you're trusting to anchor your entire chain of trust — got compromised because a support analyst opened a .scr file from a chat session. In 2026. CrowdStrike was misconfigured on one endpoint and completely absent on another. Nobody noticed the second compromise for 10 days. The attacker grabbed EV code signing initialization codes and walked out with 60 certificates. Zhong Stealer, signed and shipped. (2/5)

The fact that CAs hand-wave this aura of "we should be trusted" when they're no more secure than the gas station down the street is laughable.
