Sharing time 🎉 I have been working a lot on `@rocket/engine` which you can see as a sort of a nuxt/next equivalent but instead of vue/react it works best with web standards like custom elements, ES modules, template literals...

Moved the partial hydration API discussion to the web component community group. join it! I personally believe it can result in WAY faster (with less js) websites. Think blogs, company sites, docs sites, ... github.com/webcomponents-cg/…

If it's been solved by the platform, use the platform.

It should go without saying that there can be no “both sides” for voting rights. Making it easier for more people to vote - a civic good. Making it harder to vote, and targeting certain populations - a grave threat to democracy.

From a doctor friend: "Just intubated a perfectly healthy 35 year old in the ICU, unvaxed. He looked afraid and was completely hopeless." There's also a married couple there in liver failure from Ivermectin. "The same story is happening all over. It's depressing and disturbing."

History has shown that when you start taking away people’s rights, stuff starts getting a LOT more real. Fast.

Amen brother Take a look at the DOM Parts, HTML Modules and HTML Includes proposals. A future with dynamic HTML templates, modules, control flow, etc, is not that far off. stampino and <html-include> projects by @justinfagnani give a preview of what this might look like

If you are a lead in any capacity your primary job is no longer to be the best coder in the room. Your job is to invest in learning the skills you need to effectively communicate and grow those you lead. Your words have the potential to sit with people for years, act accordingly.

"You can't tell people what to do" isn't a sign of personal growth when it comes to vaccines and mask hygiene, just the opposite.

I hope we never stop wearing masks on planes. I haven't been sneezed on a single time AND I can mouth the lyrics to whatever I'm listening to without anyone being tempted to think I might be talking to them. It's a party in 8C and none of your bacteria are invited.
