I continue to be impressed by the innovation in the @ModdableTech@twitter.com JavaScript engine.
The article suggests it might be good to standardise Object.deepFreeze(). https://twitter.com/phoddie/status/1098435918149480449

All of GitHub's menus & dialogs work without JavaScript. The brilliant @muanchiou@twitter.com figured out that `<details>` elements could make popover menus work without JS https://github.com/muan/details-on-details! We've got open source helpers too: https://github.com/github/details-menu-element https://github.com/github/details-dialog-element

A GitHub ship that nobody has likely noticed was that we now serve native `class FooElement extends HTMLElement` and `async..await` JavaScript syntax to all browsers. No more need for most Babel transforms that we've relied on up until today!

As the year end approaches I feel obliged to point out that Brexit is not great.
Don't just take my word for it. We are better in EU than out. I introduce Theresa May who will seek to convince you.
To people suggest writing down passwords on paper is less secure, I posit to you that it’s really just changing the 1FA from “something you know” to “something you have”.
So yeah, telling people to write on paper is fine. Not optimal, but fine.

I literally tell most of my relatives to write their passwords down in a little notebook.
We tech people always think that “more tech” is the solution to all problems.
We have to smart, pragmatic AND compassionate. Know your threat models.

RT @bterlson@twitter.com Today's Edge announcements tl;dr

* Will be OSS. Will contribute code upstream.
* ChakraCore development continues for various non-Edge uses.
* No change to standards work - still pushing the web forward!
