The @firefoxdevtools.bsky.social JSON viewer got better in @firefoxnightly.bsky.social : the console offers access to the original json data via `$json`.
This allows to easily manipulate the underlying data to get what you want
This allows to easily manipulate the underlying data to get what you want
![Firefox JSON Viewer opened for the html entites JSON file
We can see the various properties of the JSON file, which are all objects containing a "characters" and a "codepoints" properties.
The Console is opened at the bottom. In it, we can see a console message explaining that some data is available (`$json.data` - the parsed JSON object, $json.text` - the original JSON text and `$json.headers` - HTTP request and response headers)
There's a console evaluation done with the following snippet:
```js
Object.entries($json.data)
.filter(([k, v]) => v.codepoints.length > 1)
.map(([k, v]) => ({characters: v.characters, htmlEntity: k, codepoints: v.codepoints}))
```
and the result shows an array of objects containing "characters", "htmlEntity" and "codepoints" properties.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:l6jizqbrtfnhnrd7vmsqmi3n/bafkreigizqr72frwj6qa53onh2tskqmcmrydexkzeydrkrarwiuoyulcmq@jpeg)

Infinite loops in the AI era: asking Claude to generate a memory instruction inciting it to suggest more memories ∞
![## Memory Suggestions
- When you notice repeated corrections, preferences, or patterns in my
feedback, proactively suggest: "Should I remember: [concise rule]?"
- Suggest memories for: code style preferences, architectural decisions,
workflow preferences, tools I prefer, things I consistently reject
- Format suggestions as single-line rules ready to paste into CLAUDE.md
- Batch multiple suggestions at natural stopping points (end of task, after
several corrections)](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:vxizjecldw4ka6lk5g46eunj/bafkreih55ekgwtfgjpdcn3ikr24jtpnozp3laxpcuvrtq4kqf4row6jfce@jpeg)

Instead, I will recommend anyone who uses hsla() or rgba() to read this article, as even the comma-separated syntax is now legacy.

So, here's a web app where you can rank the proposals you care about, giving us data we can use when reviewing which ones to champion.

What struck the Gaza Aid Flotilla? After we published the story, the Tunisian Ministry of Interior issued a statement describing the incident “that took place yesterday” as a “premeditated attack” stating that an investigation had been launched.”

I can’t say this enough — you don’t have to mutilate your language, and you do a disservice to important topics when you do so. This is going to be even more important as American authoritarianism accelerates.
Words included in my Nuremberg script: kill, murder, suicide, hanged, genocide, Nazi, holocaust, Hitler. The video is still monetized.
Using bullshit algo-compliant words like unalive, sewerslide, mustache man, etc. is not just embarrassing - its NOT EFFECTIVE.

I can confirm it is not. I was able to extract information including GPS coordinates from a test image sent to me.

⚓️ New Article: How to dismiss native HTML dialog elements when the backdrop is clicked
How to dismiss native HTML dialog elements when the backdrop is clicked
The HTML <dialog> element is a browser-native way to create dialog modals. It handles a lot of (but not all of) the accessibility stuff out-of-the-box.
By default, the <dialog> element is closed when…
You explicitly run the .close() method on it, or The user presses a <button> with the [formmethod="dialog"] attribute (or inside a method="dialog" form), or The user presses the Esc key. For most custom modals, clicking or tapping the backdrop, the dark area outside of the modal, also closes it.
