CSS contrast-color is newly baseline, but it falls short in some areas. Here's how it works, and what to look out for:

I listened to this while deep cleaning my bathroom today (rock and roll), and found myself wanting to thank @brucelawson for doing what he does.

Thank you for your charisma (I mean this without sarcasm) and your willingness to spend time talking to stiff-suited policy wonks until they understand why the web is so important to us and is not to be carved up and sold off.

From this silly goose, thank you for stealing back our commons.

While the kids (age ~9) I pick up from soccer usually talk about their favorite soccer players and teams, yesterday they could not stop discussing different types of nuclear bombs and how much of the earth would be destroyed if the americans (who make the biggest bombs) drop them (ranging from half the earth to one country). Not in a scared way, but more a rational, curious way.
I guess this is the world we now live in?

🔥 "Capable browsers, and the PWAs they support, hold the power to grow an ecosystem of applications that no gatekeeper can own or tax, based on standardised APIs that resist enclosure. But few outlets are connecting these dots for readers."

The Web Is An Antitrust Wedge

Armed with new powers to rein in the worst excesses of mobile's duopolists, regulators around the world are struggling to find their footing. The UK's CMA is only the latest to pose capitulation as success. Far from unlocking growth and dynamism, regulatory timidity is reducing enforcers' future room for manoeuvre and hampering home-grown competitors to Big Tech. Unleashing the web would fix a great deal of what's broken, but regulators are falling down on the job. It's time we spoke plainly about it.

Very good blog post about MDN's frontend architecture.

Under the hood of MDN's new frontend | MDN Blog

You may have spotted that MDN has a new frontend. There's plenty happening under the surface, so let's unpack the technologies we chose, the architectural decisions we made, and why we did a rebuild at all.

The Virtual Keyboard API ⌨️ Is broken where it matters most: https://zouhir.org/blog/virtual-keyboard-api/. Fantastic blog post by Zouhir Chahoud that goes into where it hurts: no support by Safari and Firefox, buggy support by Chrome, but Zouhir created very actionable bug reports that you should star ⭐ if you care. (I wrote about the API some years ago: https://developer.chrome.com/docs/web-platform/virtual-keyboard.)

The Virtual Keyboard API Is Broken Where It Matters Most

Six years after the spec shipped, Safari and Firefox haven't implemented it and Chrome's implementation has three compounding bugs. Here's what's wrong.
