Every time I read these stories I cant help but think of Vance who came to Munich to tell Europe that we have freedom of speech problem.

The Telegraph has taken that fake story with the stock photo illustrations down. But it's pitiful what the right wing media in this country has become.
Brexit broke them and they never recovered. They spent years pretending black was white and up was down. They lost their moral bearings completely.

I will say, I know a *lot* of devs who made good choices like this to take care of their users, quietly doing the right thing. I wish more people knew how often some programmer made a thoughtful decision to protect their interests that they never knew about.

The key is bringing down rents and mortgages via a rate of housebuilding weโ€™ve never seen before. That will put money in peoples pockets. Everything follows from there.

Could Tailwind agree to follow Widely Available Baseline? ยท tailwindlabs tailwindcss ยท Discussion #15817 Hi, Congrats on the v4 release! However the browser support, in a professional setting, makes me a bit itchy. Chrome and Safari are March 2023 versions, so that's not so bad as we only have 8 month...

Anyone using #tailwind in a large company with browser support requirements? Please upvote and add your stories to my suggestion (plea) for them to follow Baseline: github.com/tailwindlabs...

A great start would be retaliating immediately with a 100% tariff on Tesla imports.

Itโ€™s all beginning to feel a bit 1984. Weโ€™re in a battle against autocrats and oligarchs who are using money and misinformation to dismantle democracies. Thatโ€™s why weโ€™re looking for 1,984 new monthly supporters to make our biggest and boldest plans a reality (see link in bio)

Great to hear that brands have now started shuttering their accounts on the far-right cesspit that Twitter has become.

Itโ€™s not just London that has a huge amount of on-street parking. We need chargers installed on streets in towns across the country.

Iโ€™d have an EV already if my road had chargers (at a similar cost to home-charging).
