    When people ask me whether I'd go for bionic vision if it were an option, it's a complex question to answer. However, it never occurred to me that the tech could just stop working with no hope of a fix. Their Bionic Eyes Are Now Obsolete and Unsupported

    I've thought for years about the livejournal/fansite to engineering pipeline, so yeah this makes sense

    I wrote about the Tumblr girl-to-engineer pipeline and how girlies who learned HTML to code their own themes are now leading a new generation of women in STEM. ✨

    Long COVID is why millions of people are not ready to accept they must get this virus eventually. We all know people suffering. We know it's real. And we know it seems to affect at random. It's an ENORMOUS barrier to any "return to normal" and it is never discussed.

    is the most scandalously under-reported and least-discussed component to this damn pandemic.

    FYI: Telling people who are terrified of catching covid, “it’ll be okay, it won’t be that bad, you’re overreacting and everyone will get it” is real fucked up because y’all don’t know that, you have no clue how it’ll affect some folks because you don’t know their health status.

    My personal 2021 recap (let's pretend I actually wrote this before 2021 ended). Lots of baking, pets, plants, and a little travel.

    My site is now using a block-based theme, and I wrote about my experience building it. Spoiler: new things are hard, but once it clicks it'll be pretty powerful.

    I knew this was going to be a math joke- I was happy I didn't have to take English classes 😆

    My teammates have mostly been leading the charge on the News redesign, but I joined in last week to help out. It's exciting to bring such a great design to & it's the start of a whole-site refresh- using a block-based theme, too!

    I've been working hard the last few months to get the Pattern Directory ready, and soon you'll be able to design, build, and submit your own patterns for anyone to use:

    <h1>The Angle Bracket <em>FINAL FOUR</em>!</h1> What a ride it's been! Thousands of people have voted in every round over the last week and it's all come down to this, an absolute travesty of the web that we're about to shrink even further down to just 2 tags.

    Welcome to round 3! Round 2 saw all but the strongest eliminated. There were some shockers: every single <h*> is out, <blockquote> is gone, <br> and <b> both failed to make the cut. But that's nothing compared to the match-ups in round 3. Round 3 is CHAOTIC.

    I wanna do a March Madness style bracket competition where everybody votes for their favorite HTML tags but there are 111 tags in the first round, which at 4 options per poll is 28 twitter polls just for round 1, who is going to vote in that many polls?

    This is so horrifying. Our mobility devices aren’t just luggage. They’re not just things we can replace quickly. They are life saving and allow us to move about the world unharmed

    RIP Engracia. " passed away on Sunday due to complications from injuries she sustained when United Airlines destroyed her custom wheelchair last July."

    This is certainly one of the more amazing visual aids presented during a Congressional hearing that I've ever seen.

    Are you a product or project manager in the space? Are you interested in learning how WordPress core "works"? Then I'd love to mentor you and act as a docent to help show you around in hopes of bringing in more folks to contributing to core!
