Look into the future of the web platform
Last week I spoke at the very lovely Web Day Out in Brighton. My talk was about browser support, based on the work I've done over the past almost five years on Baseline.

I know you don’t want them to want AI, but…
Today, Rodrigo Ghedrin wrote the very well-intentioned, but incorrectly-titled, “ I think nobody wants AI in Firefox, Mozilla ”. As he correctly summarizes, sentiment on the Mozilla thread about a potential new AI pane in the Firefox browser is overwhelmingly negative. That’s not surprising; the…

We Need Website-Level Color Scheme Preferences
Since a few months ago, my website has a dark theme. So today I decided to casually open a PR to the darktheme.club website. On this PR, it is asked what mechanism is used to enable the dark mode. I selected JavaScript. It is unfortunate, but it is a reality.
