https://github.com/leekelleher/umbraco-contentment/releases/tag/7.0.0-alpha001

TL;DR, want to try out Umbraco 18 with Contentment this weekend?

Is it stable? Probably!
Does it have bugs? Nah!
How can you help? Test it out and feedback!

Release Contentment v7.0.0-alpha001 · leekelleher/umbraco-contentment

Hey there Umbraco fans! Due to various API breaking-changes in Umbraco 18.0, I've had to make some breaking-changes to Contentment, so we've got a major version bump; see #542 for details. With tod...

@paul Oh yes - I don't mind getting updates, but it's not the reason you launch the app, so that should just happen in the background (which many apps handle perfectly good, btw. Nova.app, Polypane.app to name a few)

I've totally forgotten about `env()` and `safe-area-inset-*` which let you keep buttons and content out of the notch and home indicator area.

Google Chrome is silently installing a local LLM on your computer that is 4 gigabytes in size. It's done without consent, it's not visible in the settings, and removing it will reinstall it later.

Google Chrome silently installs a 4 GB AI model on your device without consent. At a billion-device scale the climate costs are insane. — That Privacy Guy!

Google Chrome is downloading a 4 GB Gemini Nano model onto users' machines without consent, with no opt-in, no opt-out short of enterprise tooling, and an automatic re-download every time the user deletes it. The pattern is identical to the Anthropic Claude Desktop case I wrote about last month, but the scale is between two and three orders of magnitude larger. This article does the legal analysis and, for the first time, the environmental analysis. The numbers are not small.

@Kilian Another great Polypane update! If someone’s reading this who’s on the fence considering Polypane (and maybe the idea of another subscription…), fwiw I’m coming up to my first year or so with it, and I’m very happy to renew. And I’m sure I’m only using a small percent of what it could do! While it’s not an app I pull out every day, when I do it _easily_ earns its keep. I’ve tried all the alternatives and nothing comes close for me. 🫡 #webdev #app #indiedev

Polypane 29 is here! 🥳

It comes with my take on a network panel, a snippet store, a custom selector outline, the best way to test pseudo states ever, passkey support on macOS, WhatsApp previews, grid/flex overlay visualizations and, like, 10 more things.

At the point where the song “Almost At Fifty Percent” transitions from one motif to another, it is almost at seventy percent of its runtime.

This irks me in a way I cannot quite articulate.

Looking into this one next and just left a comment with design plans/decisions as we look to nudge it along into potential reality. https://github.com/whatwg/html/issues/10378#issuecomment-4297579999
