Hive mind! My partner has fairly extensive bilateral sensorineural hearing loss and is meant to wear hearing aids but found the NHS ones very uncomfortable.
We’re looking at private options, and I’m wondering if anyone in my network has any recommendations?
Exciting! Request for developer feedback: focusgroup HTML attribute "a proposed declarative way to add keyboard arrow-key navigation to composite widgets such as toolbars, tablists, menus, listboxes, etc. Replaces hundreds of lines of JavaScript boilerplate." developer.chrome.com/blog/focusgr...

It's the kind of feeling that makes me hate working with software.
Although, I do wish I'd just chill out some times.
I've just spent close to 2 hours debugging why my microphone on my mac desktop wasn't working (a Yeti Blue - pre Logitech).
Anxiety inducing at the level 11. It was something related to ghost logi software lurking and not releasing the USB device even though I wasn't using the logitech software.
There are a lot of things wrong with this. (Like a lot of things).
But what stood out to me was "llms don't feed and validate narcissists". Like they absolutely do? These things feed you back exactly what you wanna hear. By design.
Don't use ai for therapy. Full stop. Don't do it.
Studies find AI helps developers release more software—while logging longer hours and fixing problems after the code goes live
And @sil.kryogenix.org gave me this link which (I also think) is much clearer and where the call to action is: open-web-advocacy.org/blog/apples-...
Govenments change and (Bruce can correct me), but it now means there's potentially going to be a soft approach to Apple's monopoly (ie. they'll decide whether they want to investigate themselves).
Anyway UK gov is asking for *any* form of evidence DEADLINE TOMORROW 5PM
@paulca.com was really nice seeing you after such a long time. I *loved* the mini history lesson (and have been watching 1971)

"a talk is more than bits of code" - @cassiecodes.bsky.social - I strongly, *strongly* agree @ #SotB2026
You gotta get a *proper* console that fits in your pocket. Or even a beautiful GBA micro!
Shit. I've just realised. Hammer from Gladiators 👉 Barry Gibb.

A warning.
All the worst people in the country are now shitting themselves.
The mother of all campaigns is now going to be directed against the Green Party.
It will be an unrelenting smear campaign.
The Greens need to be ready for that - and so does everyone on the left.
Of yourself? That's bold. I approve.
Absolutely this. Can't remember this kind of externally driven hope so early on in the day!
“I said we were here to replace Labour and this is what replacing looks like.”

So the Telegraph is taking this well
Gorton and Denton by-election result:
GRN: 40.7% (+27.5)
REF: 28.7% (+14.7)
LAB: 25.4% (-25.3)
CON: 1.9% (-6.0)
LDEM: 1.8% (-2.1)
Green GAIN from Labour.
I know I shouldn't bust open the news this early (for my own sake), but couldn't help it and really pleased to find that the Greens won it.
Amazing effort 💚

I want to listening to @thisisjofrank.bsky.social but I'm spending my time counting all the Dinos - and why are the unicorns afraid of the Dino - surely it shoud be the other way around?
This *is* cool, but does anyone else remember the time when "built in a week" was a red flag?
Lately it's used as testament as to validate and justify.
I don't deny it's impressive. It…just doesn't sit in the right spot for *me* when it's anything other than a scrappy tool or prototype.
On February 6th Lucy Powell, Labours deputy leader, wrote to Zack Polanski accusing him & the Greens of sharing "misleading election material & claims on social media" & told him "its time to stop the bogus bar charts"
Labour on social media last night & the poll they're referring to⬇️
I can only assume Sarah Vine is paid by the word. Quite impressed by the void where substance is supposed to be. Strong on the imagination though.
(I do hope it's not too soon before I read the Mail and have to clear out all the tracking garbage and cookies)
Sure, but don't pitch it with: stop using js for that thing - which is what I'm seeing.
8 => 25 - it was like driving the Delorean - fire streaming behind me!
Somewhere between tech demos and "this is what the web with standards can do (without JavaScript)".
