Sooooo excited I just managed to snag tickets to see Alan Menken in Dublin in February. The musical theatre geek inside me is living his best life right now :) 🎶🥳🎶

Just updated Node Pebble to support latest release version of Let’s Encrypt’s Pebble testing server.

Codeberg.org

node-pebble

A Node.js wrapper for Let’s Encrypt’s Pebble (a small RFC 8555 ACME test server not suited for a production certificate authority)

Enjoy! 💕 #LetsEncrypt #Pebble #testing #tls #ssl #security #NodeJS #JavaScript

I updated the initial Kitten course based on our first lesson with @npub1fm29...u496 and your feedback here. So now we start with no tooling except for your default terminal app and Kitten and it serves as a gentle introduction to the command line and gets to you seeing your first web page in your web browser far more quickly.

Kitten: Course

The tooling chapter is now Chapter 2:

And there’s a new Chapter 3 that gets you editing your newly-created web page using Helix Editor:

Kitten: Course

I’m going to add an introduction to git to this chapter soon. The course is being developed as Casey and I have our lessons so new chapters should trickle in and things may change with rewrites, etc., as we go.

Kitten: Course

Please feel free to follow along and pipe in with thoughts and suggestions if you have any. Enjoy! :kitten:💕 PS. There will be screenshots, etc., added as I work on it more. I know it’s a bit text-heavy at the moment. #Kitten #KittenCourse #course #SmallWeb #PeerToPeerWeb #web #dev #HTML #CSS #JavaScript #NodeJS

I just saw that we now have over 100 verified accounts on Gaza Verified.

That’s over 100 people that @npub1nv8q...za59, @npub1q654...ykwz, @npub1fm29...u496 and I have had live video conversations with to confirm that they are real people from Gaza. As previously announced, the last day for verification calls this year is this Friday (19th December, 2025) and we will be closing sign ups for new calls at end of day tomorrow. Sign-ups will resume again in the new year. You can find the fundraisers for our Gaza Verified families all in one place at:

The list is sorted by those who have received the least in the last week. Given many are struggling through the harsh winter in makeshift tents being flooded and swept away by torrential downpours and gale-force winds, your help – even if it is a couple of dollars – can go a long way to helping them survive Israel’s ongoing genocide and its blockade of essential aid. Thank you! 💕 #GazaVerified #Gaza #Palestine #FreePalestine #mutualAid #fediAid

Little JavaScript tip: You know you can comment out code to quickly disable it: ```js /* console.log(‘I won’t run’) */ ``` But did you know you can also use a labelled block with a break statement to do the same thing? ```js disable: { break disable console.log(‘I wont’t run’) } ``` Then, you can quickly the move the `break disable` to different lines to execute different bits of code within the block. (Of course, ideally, you should use your JavaScript debugger and break points but, hey…) Enjoy! 💕 #JavaScript #tip #dev #debugging

“People want software that is fast, modern, but also honest about what it does.”

Mozilla’s next chapter: Building the world’s most trusted software company | The Mozilla Blog

Today, I step into the role of CEO of Mozilla Corporation. It is a privilege to lead an organization with a long history of standing up for people ...

No, you muppet, people want tools that do what they need, not do crap they don’t want and be honest about it. If someone tells you they’re a gardener, they should tend your garden, not piss in your face while telling you “I’m pissing in your face. If you don’t want me to piss in your face, you can opt out. Tomorrow, I’ll come back and piss in your face again unless you opt out.” If that’s what they’re doing, they’re not a gardener, they’re someone who pisses in your face. #mozilla #firefox #AI #pissingInYourFace
