The tilde key on my laptop seems to have stopped working reliably... this is a real problem for the number of code samples I'm typing/pasting in everywhere!
Anyone else facing this? This cannot be uncommon.
Maybe time to go back through all my external keyboards and pick a fav.

All the electronics in the house are screaming at me today in their high pitched whiny voices. I suppose it's a good day to visit them all and see what can be unplugged.
Also, I hope I am not about to get a migraine 😬🤞

I just used California's new Delete Request and Opt-out Platform (DROP) for the first time. I was sad to see that it won't start deleting my data until Aug 1st, but maybe it's a step in the right directlon?

New year, new choices.
Some Camps require coats. Some require sunscreen.

I'm sorry you're not feeling well :(
I've had luck with N-acetylcysteine (NAC) for chest stuff that lingers. Also I think Liquid IV has actually prevented me from getting sick twice now (after the onset of symptoms!) so I have at least one each day when I'm not feeling well. Can't hurt?
I put the entire description for the Lampton coat of arms into Sora to see if it could generate a stained glass pattern. Incredible results. Attached are the notarized description, a commissioned drawing we inherited, and the Sora output.

I am creating a new repo on @gitlab.com. Yes, it's because I'm leaving BitBucket -- but why would the *only* option be to manually upload an export? What's wrong with `git push`?
I don't mind paying for a good service, but I have a lot of instances where a client will end up hitting domain or API key limits in a way that costs them hundreds of dollars when they really only have like 200 emails/mo across all domains.
Horrid support is from my own personal experiences with them in the past, delivery reputation was based on current tests (run in 2025)
Sengdrid free tiers are being discontinued in 60 days, that's why I'm in the market again :(
Sooooo what are we using for SMTP providers nowadays?
I'm looking for one with decent support that has a free tier for the little guys who need only help with pw resets :)

This is certainly better than needing to click to open the modal - but surely there's a way around the modal all together... Is this missing feature not driving everyone else up the wall too?
Has anyone found a google docs extension that will allow you to highlight some text, paste a URL, and have that URL become a link around the text? You know, like almost all other modern rich-text editors? Surely this exists by now?
Actually the best life advice I ever got: Anything worth doing is worth doing poorly. A half-cleaned room is better than an uncleaned room. Occasionally flossing is better than never flossing. A 10-minute workout is better than no workout. When it’s all you can do to get out of bed, get out of bed.
Here's my talk from I/O along with the companion blog post that rounds up all of the links mentioned. It's been a very exciting year for the web, and all the new Baseline tooling we've just announced can help you understand when to adopt these new features. web.dev/blog/whats-n...

A little over a decade ago I was on vacation before a company event. While I was out, @justafish.bsky.social and co-conspirators planned… a companion event.
So I can say confidently that Eatoncon would involve powerpoint karaoke, fake moustaches, and gummi. Because it did. flic.kr/p/bs4APW
TIL: setting form_error() or form_set_error() prevents forms from being rebuilt, so $form_state['rebuild'] is ignored.
