Your periodic reminder that mRNA vaccines are a scientific and public health game-changer. Those that have been approved have passed stringent efficacy and safety checks. They protect you and your child against potentially fatal diseases. You may, however, get a sore arm.

Science is hard. You gotta prove it, test it, and reproduce the results.
Pseudoscience is easy. You make it up, add some fear, and watch ignorant people spread it.

TIL — the CSS working group is working on `appearance: base;` which will give us:

- Identical styles across all browsers
- 100% WCAG 2.2 compliant controls
- Easy ways to customize all these form elements 💯

This talk is time very well spent. 👇

Some people sort css properties within a rule by some categorization like layout vs type. Other people simplify to alphabetical order. Both are Incorrect.

The Correct Way is to sort properties by their initial draft spec commit date, and then order of definition within the spec.

If you want to defeat radical dishonesty and LIES, it’s going to take radical honesty and TRUTH.

And many of you can’t handle the truth.

Here, let me prove it to you with one word that has been banished from Congress and corporate media:

Genocide.

a while ago one of you was asking about labelling the 'status' of components in your Design Systems documentation - alpha, beta, ready, deprecated, etc.

Well, here's a natty little page from SumUps Design System - CircuitUI - explaining the component lifecycle

It’s incredible that the President of the United States is openly flirting with suspending Habeas Corpus, disappearing people left and right, arresting judges and politicians, accepting ludicrous bribes from foreign countries, and people are still trying to normalize this shit.

What a line from Warren Buffett this morning:

“Be kind, and the world is better off. I'm not sure that the world will be better off if I'm richer."

Could you imagine if the head of the United States healthcare system didn’t believe that HIV caused AIDS?

…And that instead they believed that AIDS is caused by recreational drugs (“poppers”) used by gay people?

Oh wait…🥴

RFK Jr. is going to burn in Hell for what he said this week about autistic children.

I mean, he was already going, but now we are building yet another special place in Hell just for him.
