"Hallway track"...don't you mean "eavesdrop track"? When you realize something that you want shipped might be made easier when you overhear someone with a solution that might not otherwise be perceived as related. 😜

TIL that when you run `el.attachShadow({mode: "open" })` on an element with DSD it _clears_ the children while leaving the initial shadow root.

The most important lesson for Democrats from Mamdani's victory is this: abandon the decades-old practice of triangulating to win the center. Instead, grow the base with a positive, joyful vision for what government can do when it gives up on being shackled to a Republican base.

components know:
- user stuff
- device stuff
- app stuff
- design stuff
- what stuff is in them
- what stuff they're inside
- etc
It's amazing how much a component can know on the web, and I'm going to try and list it all out. Help me 🤓

If someone had said “if Trump gets elected, he’ll literally bulldoze the White House” just a year ago, everyone - right, left, and center - would have told them to shut up and stop exaggerating.

With the number of developers that don't really know what it means to _finish_ a project (read performance, accessibility, documentation, etc.), it's no wonder so many in management think AI can replace them.

Oh, the painful balance of "doing something because it's on the top of mind at the leadership level" and "doing something that's actual worth doing" as you think about "career growth". 🤬

I often fall into the thinking the "fullstack" was a condemnation of "frontend", but what if it was just an admonition that there are very few "backend" devs that actually want to do their own jobs... 🤔

So, #webkit is it some sort of esoteric security issue that prevents me from streaming multiple device cameras in iOS Safari? 🥺 Really wanting to work through a prototype for my team with that feature. Looks like I’ll have to switch to supporting Android users…only. #browserban @owa
