😂 yep the internet does suck now

@calendly-official.bsky.social this is why we hate chatbots. Stop it with this nonsense 🤣.

As a long-time YNAB (@ynabofficial.bsky.social) customer, I was pretty bummed to learn they _sell your private information_ by default. Make sure you go and turn this off -- and I'll be on the hunt for a replacement soon, I think. bsky.app/profile/nick...

Screenshot of YNAB showing that "Allow Sale of My Personal Info & Sharing of My Personal Info for Targeted Ads" is enabled by default and opt-out only.

@ynabofficial.bsky.social I feel like you should be called out for this being opt-out 🙄. I literally pay you money every month, why do you also need to sell my information?

“we need to talk about your ad blocker”

NO WE NEED TO TALK ABOUT THE FACT THAT YOU ABNEGATED YOUR RESPONSIBILITY TO FIND A BUSINESS MODEL, TO OFFER A VALUABLE SERVICE FOR MONEY, AND SURPRISE! IT DIDN’T WORK

Mom: Hi there! My tv is telling me I need to sign in. I’ve look thru all the settings and not sure where I’m supposed to sign in. Any ideas? Mom: I see where I can reset the app but I will lose my accounts and will need to sign back in. Settings will also be reset Mom: I figured it out haha! Me: Oh okay! Sorry haha just got to basketball practice

Rubber ducking works on parents, too!

oh nooo ahahah

That would match both targets in my original post here. The problem I have is that I want to style the inline code blocks differently from the box-style code blocks.

This is actually much more bearable once I became more liberal with child labor laws.

And yea I adjust the drill setting to very low for most pieces.

Uhhhh can I just ship all future furniture to you for assembly and you ship me the finished item!?

One of the bags of hardware broke open in the box and I'm short 21 cam lock combos 😭

AIM buddy profiles! They supported basic HTML. From there it was a natural leap to "okay how do I do a website now".

Oh I mean the character count. Funny though, I can just screenshot the code and use up to 2,000 chars for alt text 😆

'use client'; import { useEffect, useRef } from 'react'; export default function PostContent({ content }: { content: string }) { const ref = useRef<HTMLDivElement>(null); useEffect(() => { const codeElements = ref.current?.querySelectorAll('p code'); codeElements?.forEach((codeElement) => { const codeElementWrappedInnerHtml = `<code>${codeElement.innerHTML}</code>`; if ( codeElement.parentElement?.innerHTML === codeElementWrappedInnerHtml ) { codeElement.classList.add('code-block'); } }); }, [ref]); return <div ref={ref} dangerouslySetInnerHTML={{ __html: content }} />; }

Yeah what a bummer. Ended up doing this to explicitly mark block-level code elements (had to post this as an image because of Bluesky's character limit... are we for real gonna do this again 😭)

CSS selector for elements without text siblings I'm trying to find a CSS selector that can help me distinguish between the &lt;var&gt; tags in these 2 different usages: &lt;p&gt;&lt;var&gt;Foo&lt;/var&gt;&lt;/p&gt; And &lt;p&gt;Some text &lt;...

😭 stackoverflow.com/questions/23...

I think the problem I'm having is that :first-child matches the <code> element inside <p>some<code>code</code></p> because "some" is not inside an element.

A screenshot illustrating that I want to target the code element inside the p tag of code <p>some<code>code</code>text</p>, but _not_ the code element inside <p><code>code</code></p>.

CSS wizards:

Anyone know how I can target the child of a selector that has siblings but those siblings are not within elements!?

Ie., I have <p>some<code>code</code>text</p>, I want to style the <code> element differently than <p><code>code</code></p>.

I've tried a huge amount of NA beer over the last couple of years and Untitled Art blows away everything, likely due to their RO process through their contract brewer Octopi.

It's very easy to fool a "leaded" beer drinker w/ UA's beers, not so much with Athletic and other breweries IMO.

Here now!

Is this place like Old Dev Twitter? It seems like it might be.

Ie., the OG An Event Apart speaker cohort. I just went through @simplebits.bsky.social's followers and pretended it was 2008 😂.

Hello, world.
