I created my own **reset.css** file #css #webdev

Inspired by @joshwcomeau.com @bell.bz @willybrauner.com and others - added sources links on the file itself :)

You can try it with:

`npm i gist:0822bebdf9935e1c5cfd5e3d1018a565`

and then:

`import "reset.css"`

gist.github.com/fsgreco/0822...
✨ reset.css ✨ install with`npm i gist:0822bebdf9935e1c5cfd5e3d1018a565` and import it like this `import "reset.css";`

How many times do we have to remind people: the chatbot *cannot* admit to *anything*. It *doesn't know*. When you ask it about itself, it generates its answer the same way it generates your request that it write an email. It takes what you tell it and responds in way to sound plausible.

The superintelligent AI is smoke and mirrors. Big corps and states with do atrocious things to humans and blame the AI god. So many will go towards religious psychosis and be radicalized towards fascism. Instead of AI, it's the billionaires benefiting from all this we should be looking at.

Il “decreto sicurezza” è l’ennesimo tassello dell’orbanizzazione dell’Italia.

Norme ad hoc contro i nemici politici, crudeltà verso i più deboli e repressione del dissenso.

Dear @bsky.app devs - I am continually confused by the "Share" button that looks like an "Upload" button.

Please consider using the icon that looks like interconnected nodes, or the swoopy arrow thing.

Thank you!

BTW, most people think they don't need to understand whether or Bluesky is decentralized, a claim they make.

Here's why you should care.

If Bluesky gets a govt order to shut down your account, they can.

That's it. That's how you know it's centralized and why you should care.

Unrequested but useful tip here :)

🔎 Search and Show node_modules recursively:
```
find . -name "node_modules" -type d -prune | xargs du -chs
```
🧹 Delete them:
```
find . -name "node_modules" -type d -prune -exec rm -rf '\''{}'\'' +
```

Set them as alias on zsh:

“The reason we face the worst is because it helps us imagine the best.” What a fantastic, hopeful read. Treat yourself to this, and then spread it around.
I wrote about the worst people in the world, charting the depths of their depravity and vastness of their incompetence, and offered some thoughts about the opportunity presented by their failure to acknowledge reality and their refusal to access any form of human virtue.
