Lightning destroys all fireworks ahead of July 4 celebration in Sanford
A lightning strike destroyed fireworks equipment ahead of Sanford’s Fourth of July celebration on Friday, according to the police department.
AWS switched one of their product announcement web pages to a new theme a few days ago, it truncated a headline to "AWS WAF reduces web application security..." and then I guess they reverted to the old theme. :blobthinkingeyes:
Hot take: Granted "Yes"/"Ask me again later" prompts are evil. BUT! Prompts that randomly pop up and then randomly disappear forever when you accidentally interact with some element of the page -- even the prompt's own "Learn more" link -- are also toxic and hostile and awful. At least you can't permanently miss "ask me again later" prompts by accident. Software needs a link to a "what the fuck was that thing I just missed" list. (And not just "what's new" or "tips and tricks" or support links that go to completely different information.)
