What does the large hadron collider have to do with misguided non-scientists tasing themseves in the nuts and squirrels teased by capitalist nuts in a social media forest? @heydon has the answer and it's black (and, at times, very very dark grey): https://briefs.video/videos/why-the-indieweb/
The new Webbed Briefs video is available for your viewing pleasure.
Hi everyone!
I think I'm going to spend more time here this year. Some things I released lately:
1. A video on progressive enhancement: https://briefs.video/videos/is-progressive-enhancement-dead-yet/
2. A punk/blues/rockabilly/sludge record: https://deathgarage.bandcamp.com/album/death-garage-1

Si vous rêvez du "container query" #CSS, @heydon a créé un "custom component" qui utilise l'API ResizeObserver pour en simuler un ! 🎉

⏰ LAUNCH DAY! ⏰ Okay, I have until May 1st to fund my book "Bye Bye, Billionaires". Please help in any way you can, even if it's just a share!

My wife helps a Syrian refugee family. I came home to find a picture on the fridge of 'our family' by one of the kids. I'm included (😭) as 'Hadon' and I appear to be wearing a dress. It is my favorite thing.
I have been suspended from Twitter for attacking the protected class that is [squints] Brexiteers... how's your morning going?
