A screenshot of Lighthouse test results showing perfect 100's in performance, accessibility, best practices, and SEO.
My dumb little personal site scored its first perfect score in Lighthouse this week.
In April 2024, Spotify implemented a new scheme: songs with less than 1k streams per year would no longer receive royalties.
The data for 2025 was just released via Luminate, and 88% of songs have been demonetized.
Read it again: 88% of songs on Spotify have been demonetized.

That reflect **a sundowning man** stuck in adolescence. He was like this before he got the job. Say it like it is.
Forgot to tag @kagi.com and @theverge.com!
It’s always nice to see an upstart service you appreciate get their flowers.
Kagi works so well that I only think about it when I accidentally send a query to Google. They also love to celebrate their growth with their users. www.theverge.com/web/631636/k...
😍 those pops of yellow!
That @miriam.codes shared why being “in tech” in 2025 is depressing, and if we’re going to stick around, we need to remember why we’re here. This all resonates with me so much and I want to basically quote the whole article. Worth your time: www.miriamsuzanne.com/2025/02/12/t...

I am become Kool-Aid Man, destroyer of walls.
Apple Intelligence is asking your AI assistant’s AI assistant to fulfill a request. Breathtaking.
This is one of the finest pieces of journalism @theverge.com has ever published. I laughed, I cried, I hugged my fountain pens and ordered more notebooks.
Who else thinks that buying banned books as presents is a great idea this year?
I gave a talk at the final XOXO conference.
At first, I thought I'd revisit my first talk from ten years ago. But it turned into something different. Something about life, and art, and… McDonalds?

Sewer people, I've been here before
With shredded splinters on the floor
You see, I tried to use nunchucks before my katana
And I've smelled your pizza from the box
But those toppings are no work of art
They're a gross and they're a nasty cowabungaaa 🎵
I’ve decided to use my powers for good enough.
me, as a child: *walks into the kitchen covered in my own blood holding a rabbit I fought from a hawk*
my mom, on the phone: *mouthing* I’m on the phone
I’m like a Tralfamadorian, but instead of seeing all of time, I see all of what there is to be angry about
Half a million people in London right now. Jewish activists in New York last night. Polls in both countries overwhelmingly support a ceasefire in Gaza. Cannot imagine this level of support even five years ago. Whatever happens, the Palestinians are no longer alone.
