TIL about a memorial ceremony in Iceland in 2019 to mark the end of a glacier, changing the place name from Okjökull to Ok (jökull = glacier). Uncompromising wording on the bronze plaque:

160 years ago, the 13th Amendment was ratified, ending slavery. But that amendment came with a sinister loophole: a Slavery Clause that allowed for slavery “as punishment for crime.”

If we can only have art from people who "aren't in it for the money" that means we can only have art from privileged middle-class dilettantes. Making art being a viable career is responsible for nearly all worthwhile art, and if it's not a viable career any more we will get drastically less of it.

If Democrats want to regain working people, they must disavow Big Money.
They must hammer economic populism — and have a laser focus on the cost of living crisis in America.
There’s no way the party can speak for or represent the working class in America if it's beholden to corporate interests.

For me, the biggest improvement that Signal Forms brings is how easy it is now to create custom control components
No more `ControlValueAccessor` and boilerplate, simply drop some inputs/model signal for value/disabled state/etc, and you're done!
Here's a reusable Rating component example:
