Proud of my work on PNG. 24 years is a good run! But now that Apple has finally adopted WebP, there is a superior replacement for both JPEG and PNG. With Microsoft ditching IE11 support on their own sites on August 17th, it's time to start moving on. 🍺💧 ct'd

Release day! ApostropheCMS 4.23.0 is out (and it's a good one). LAYOUT is now in core, a new widget that offers an in-context layout building experience. Drag'em, drop'em, stretch'em, hide'em on mobile. Check out the preview. youtu.be/ppFdc0NfIWY
@Katsucon Hi! The "registration" dropdown takes you to a FAQ that does not include the actual registration page. Google finds the actual registration page, and registration does seem to be available, so I assume something is not quite right. Just FYI
@CoderRadioShow Love the show, learn something new every time. But I can't quite figure out why you keep downplaying Red Hat's legal maneuvers to get around the GPL. I am sincerely scratching my head about it and finally couldn't resist reaching out.
Even if adhering to the spirit limits the scale of what companies can do and it takes longer for things to happen, the spirit under which everybody else contributed to that OS you're selling matters. Community matters, in open source, even for corporations.

I love that we get to give good stuff away at work. Why would we hoard a tool like this when it could be made better by the community?
Check out what Apostrophe CTO @boutell recently built and released as #opensource. max-mem measures the maximum memory usage of any command. `max-mem` does for memory what `time` does for execution time. #webdevelopment

The comparison to Carl Sagan is interesting. Sagan was in favor of Mars colonization, but he was also concerned about the price tag and open to waiting a century. washingtonpost.com/opinions/…
