At the farm today. The one I grew upon. Perhaps for the last time. Despite my wishes and the magical silver cup.

OG GAN Moby Dick ends spectacularly and ominously: "small fowls flew screaming over the yet yawning gulf; a sullen white surf beat against its steep sides; then all collapsed, and the great shroud of the sea rolled on as it rolled five thousand years ago." Hope we fare better.

Feeling pretty romantic, I'm thinking of designing a custom scent for my sweetheart for Valentine's Day. 🤓♥️🌸 fragrantica.com/notes/ mefragrance.com (don't worry, she doesn't read Twitter)

I'm crying. I'm so relieved. My neighborhood (Castro, SF, CA, USA) is shouting.

I'm so happy and excited! I start my new job tomorrow. I don't know what it's going to be like yet, but it's exactly the job I wanted: Frontend engineer at Khan Academy. 😍💃💃💃💃

I was sick in bed yesterday, and I congratulated myself for not drinking any coffee. But then I realized I ate almost a whole pint of Coffee Toffee Bar Crunch ice cream. So I had better not congratulate myself too much.

@marioeg Good question! I don't know the answer. :) Brotli is different. We'd have to consider it and test it out on files. Still, using compression that doesn't add value isn't the worst thing we could do.

Gzipping files that have native compression (such as images) is not useful and can actually make the resources slightly bigger. discuss.httparchive.org/t/sites-that-d… icydk

A seemingly small but valuable detail for web dev productivity: use different favicons for staging and prod.

@richardtagger Whoa. That's interesting to witness. It looks to me like the Uber driver *might* be in the wrong here. :P

Wish I had sfzinefest.org when I was a young, queer zinester trying to express myself and connect with people. So much good stuff.

When looking for a new job we must personally rank the leadership of the companies we consider, in addition to evaluating the product. If you don't like the CEO, don't work there
