Sad to see this go, honestly. It's always been a really useful tool to quickly test a GitHub GraphQL query or grab a bit of data from GitHub without needing to get an auth token and set up a local tool to make the API calls... this doesn't really seem like a DX improvement.

How on earth has @firefox managed to break the native emoji picker... again...? I cannot type emoji in my browser now, for the second time in the last year.

So I decided to clone the cdnjs/cdnjs repository for the first time in a while... turns out it now consumes right around 1TB on disk (with .git removed), which is not really much of a surprise when you realise it now houses 25 million files.

Just spent an hour chatting with @EE about their broadband. They assured me they'd be able to install fiber even if I don't have it currently, including digging up the road. Agent goes to send the contract, and oh dear, there's an error that our address doesn't have fiber... Sigh

I managed to build a UI (with grid + aspect-ratio mess) that works correctly in Firefox and Safari, but doesn't work in Chrome. Can't think I've ever managed that before.

I don't talk much about my day job, but if you write clean React/TypeScript, are experienced with open-source and observability, and care about user experience, come work with me: grnh.se/g8fwl10b4us UK or grnh.se/f78w1gd24us US.

Very happy with how the server rack mockup turned out for the new compute section on the @AlveusSanctuary website. Thought about doing it as an SVG, but it was way more fun to build it with CSS and container query units to make it all scale nicely. alveus.gg/tech#compute
