The headline of the story reads: Google boss warns 'no company is going to be immune' if AI bubble bursts. The image is of the meme of the guy dressed as a hot dog saying: We're all trying to find the guy who did this.

A screenshot of an accessibility auditing tool showing a score of 100% …even though we all know that you've got to manually test stuff. A screenshot of PageSpeed Insights showing scores of 100 across the board for performance, accessibility, best practices, and SEO. A screenshot of the blacklight inspection tool showing that there are no trackers on The Session. A screenshot of a security report summary showing a rating of A+. A screenshot from SSL Report showing an overall rating of A+. A screenshot of the website carbon calculator showing a rating of A+.

Accessibility, performance, privacy, security, sustainability …some of the things I value more than “developer experience” when I’m working on thesession.org

A screenshot of the posting interface on my website showing a form field with this note written it. Below there are two selected buttons: Mastodon and Bluesky.

I’ve updated my website’s posting interface to allow me to selectively POSSE to Mastodon and/or Bluesky (previously I was using RSS-to-micro.blog for Bluesky syndication)

A monochrome screenshot of a primitive interface showing the contents of the Patterns Day website as just black text on a white background, but the text is reasonably well structured and perfectly understandable.

A screenshot of one corner of my desktop showing app icons in my dock, including one for The Session that has a red circle in the corner of the icon with the number 1.

Ooh, Safari on Mac supports the Badging API for websites that are added to the dock—nice!

Lighthouse scores for PatternsDay.com showing 100 for performance, 100 for accessibility, 100 for best practices, and 100 for SEO.

I know it’s pure gamification but I have to admit that I get a kick out of making Lighthouse set off fireworks by getting a clean sweep across the board.

Airlines that prioritise passenger safety cancelled their flights at @CorkAirport because of #StormBarra Then there’s @RyanAir. (I’m very glad I pre-emptively changed my booking instead of waiting for them to cancel or postpone.)
