Mosaic was the first web browser to hit the mainstream in 1993, built by NCSA at Illinois. 🌐 It integrated text, images, data, audio & video, sparking a web boom. Not the first browser, but the one that made the web usable for millions. Its legacy? Every browser since.

We got TEN DAYS to go before this knockout karaoke fundraiser in downtown Oakland and we could really use some more people to buy tickets. It'll be fun, I promise.

Also, the changes to the Oakland Encampment Management policy are finally coming up for a vote before the Oakland city council, so I have to go down there tomorrow evening for a show of force. Frankly, I would rather be doing karaoke.

"How to Get Your Conference Talk Proposal Noticed"
I recently had the opportunity to review CFPs for an upcoming conference. After going through hundred of proposals, I noticed a couple of things that set the good ones apart.

I am once again begging, begging everyone to hold these 3 thoughts in their head at once:
1. Plastics recycling is not very effective. It’s far, far better to not use plastic at all in the first place, and that failing, far better to reuse.
2. Plastics recycling is not worthless or pointless. Don’t just throw it all away because “iT dOEsn’T matTeR.” A miserable 5% reclaimed is still better than 0% reclaimed.
3. Plastics recycling is nonetheless part of a petrochemical greenwashing campaign, per

Can you imagine what the dating experience is like with a marketing exec who thinks 11 emails and 13 texts in the space of a few days after signing up for a discount code is probably the right number?

ICYMI - I commend unto you my most excellent podcast interview with break-out stand-up star Faris Hytiaa, the pride of Lethbridge, speaking about his Sudanese roots, Alberta identity, and the future of Canadian comedy. At a moment of both crisis in Sudan, and rising anti-immigrant rhetoric in Canada, this is a very timely listen. (Also includes comedy excerpts, if you need a good laugh today.) #Alberta #AlbertaUnbound #abpoli #Canada #Sudan #yyc

“Abby Stylianou [professor at Saint Louis University] built an app that asks its users to upload photos of hotel rooms they stay in when they travel. It may seem like a simple act, but the resulting database of hotel room images helps Stylianou and her colleagues assist victims of human #trafficking.”

Mayank (
@mayank) is the most talented frontend developer I’ve ever had the pleasure of working with.
They’re not only someone with a excellent grasp of web technologies, but someone who knows how to lead very effectively. I was constantly inspired while working with them, not just by their technical abilities, but how they were able to balance the needs of many constituencies, often cross-functionally, as well as, how they navigated legacy and future development efforts so harmoniously.
If you want a frontend leader who knows how take an organization’s frontend to the next level, hire Mayank!
Garmin just released the InReach Mini 3, which is worse in many ways than the v2 (heavier, worse battery life, touch screen that’s more a liability than a feature in an emergency device). BUT this means the v2 is on deep discount, which means if you’ve been thinking about getting one now’s a great time. I’m a huge fan of mine - it’s an essential piece of safety gear, imo, and has been indispensable when plans change and I need to deal with logistics in the backcountry.

Today’s Classical Chinese translation: The Oil-Hawking Geezer.
Sir Chen Kangsu was a great shot — the best archer in the world, in fact. He was busy practicing in his own yard when some oil-hawking geezer set down his wares to take a good long stare. When he saw that eight or nine of every ten arrows struck the bullseye, the old geezer nodded slightly.
“Oh,” called Kangsu, “are you also a big archery stan? Hot stuff, don’t you think?”
“Meh,” said the hawker, “it’s just a matter of practice.”
Kangsu was insulted. “And just who are you to brush me off like that, huh, hotshot?”
“Here, lemme show you my oil.” The old man put a drinking gourd on the ground, and laid one of those coins with a threading hole in the middle over the mouth. He slowly poured a ladle of oil straight through the threading-hole without leaving the slightest trace of oil on the coin. “See? Just a matter of practice, that’s all.”
Kangsu really had to let that one slide.

Localization note: the original story takes it for granted that of course “money” has a small hole in the middle; I was very confused trying to grasp what was going on until I figured out they meant this particular type of coin.
I bet I'm the first person to ever use the words "meh", "stan" and "bro" in a Classical Chinese translation. If not: let's be friends. https://infosec.exchange/@0xabad1dea/115195918556365522
