A team rebuilt the original WorldWideWeb application inside modern browsers. Here is a thing I never knew about WorldWideWeb:
HTML editing and URLs weren't intended for the user. All the editing would be done in the rendered view. Styled directly in the browser (from a custom toolbar) and saved to networked drives (possibly pushed using FTP to other networks).
Imagine if development had continued along this conceptual branch, and everyone developed the regular habit of copying and editing any web page?
Also of note:Of course these both [React and Parcel] provided me great affordances whilst on a few occasions causing me a headache because there was some bug, but I was so far away from "the metal", the actual executed JavaScript, it meant I had to work around issues
Although a large portion of the code is dedicated to the UI for the WorldWideWeb browser and also the NeXT operating system, the WebView - as we called the rendering logic - contains hacks that were only achievable using good old tried and tested DOM scripting. -

OK, we reboarded. Only 5.5 hours after our original boarding time.

Fuck, a total of 5 hours of delay and counting now. Never flying again.

They kicked us off the plane; said we'd get an update in an hour. Living life to the fullest here.
-
Our flight has been delayed for over two hours. We've been sitting on the plane that long. We've learned our lesson about winter flying. Never again.
-
Well, our flight is delayed so we're sitting in our plane at the gate. Eating fast food with the guy is not a bad time, though!

As Sir Slicer would say, you need armor.
Both stainless steel filet and chainmail gloves usually come in five sizes: S, M, L, XL, and XXL.

Oh, yeah, so Alex and I added an image slice moving effect to Colorer!
I'll explain more about it later, but for now, enjoy this out-of-context animation! -

Updating metadata is hard. To update the metadata for Observatory, I wrote an editor, and do that, I had to make some modules.
As a result, I finally have a view where I can reliably see things that I'm working on or at least that I haven't been able to give up on. I'm sort of relieved that that list is way, way smaller than the unfiltered one.
