Surprised face! Cuuute
A cat looks out of a cardboard box with rocks sitting on a shelf, like a tiny booth.
My daughter’s cat, Denali, has a miniature “storefront” that he likes to sit in. Humans helpfully add some “products” on display. #OpenForBusiness #caturday
Yes. I feel this strongly. My words are mine or they’re nothing.
I love how “Iraan” is pronounced, “Ira Anne”.
My parents took me to get my hearing tested at age 7. My hearing was fine; I just wasn’t interested in what they were saying. I do find that I have an audio processing delay of some kind. I have to “replay” the words in my head a few times.
I read today that Truman’s attempt to follow other postwar governments to create national healthcare systems was stymied by Dixiecrats who couldn’t bear the thought of racially integrated healthcare.
I say nationalize all the HC insurers.
I’ve seen this curséd image before; I didn’t think it could get weirder. I was wrong.
That, and some config for the Contentful Images API CDN in the image component would be 👌
I work there, let me know if you’d like to talk to someone in product or a solution architect. Thanks Matt! I got to see the Google IDX team roll out an Astro site, would love to see more of it with our customers.
Wrote about this on LI today. Matt, can you help me understand Content Layers a bit, as it relates to a headless CMS like Contentful? Is it a new model for data sources, or for different kinds of APIs that are perhaps less structured?

Would you say this is also a result of Congressional deadlock and abdication of power over the years? So few eras of getting things done since like the 90s.
I mean, healthcare coverage is for sure broken in this country. But the best ways to fix it for the most number of people ain’t this. ACA was kneecapped by R’s preventing the big cost savings.
M4A & nationalization would help, if the courage existed.
Love it! Josh, did you explore any techniques to get some noise or a bump map of any sort to add some texture to the frosted glass? I can think of a few approaches but haven’t tested them recently.
1877/78. I think there are some key differences but history rhymes.
Perceived lack of control over workers and status. And yeah, the empty, expensive physical offices. People doing actual work love it of course.
Awesome, I’m always needing tools like this.
I don’t recall that episode! 🤯
Would you say that DS9 got the balance better?
I really can’t abide these long seasons either to find out what happens. I do not have time for that.
You reminded me one thing I loved about Trek: you can watch a single episode and go on about your life! 🛸
🥕I guess we better start planting gardens again.
Done. Marc, consider adding a domain alias to your Bsky config, maybe under democracydocket.com or a personal domain. It might help a tad. I did it this week and it wasn’t too hard.
Mina dot rip!
Awesome. Customers shouldn’t have to double-process images if they have a CDN.
Can this work with image CDNs to let them generate the assets, and reference them in the srcset?
a large b/w banner Bicycles deliver the freedom that auto ads promise hanging on the side of a building.
Large format Auto Freedom billboard now up at Brumble Bikes Westerly, RI. 🔥🔥🔥
Our community lead global counter message campaign continues. This is truly remarkable to see, every single time.

Big fan of MK, will check it out
At least Bat Boy has a consistent moral compass!
I expected outré candidates from him, but these really do go beyond the pale. Absolute clown car
Would people watch a small group drinking beers and discussing philosophy? 🍻
I would have preferred to see more grain, but was asked to match other dark furniture. Maybe the next piece
