@CilComLFC This tweet is a blatant lie. There is no such message from the WHO, this is just a troll trying to spread misinformation.

@Roku my perfectly fine Roku 4 is now a useless paperweight because you dropped support for it. Hulu, Disney+, AppleTV, etc. can no longer be viewed on it. I’m very disappointed, it’s such a waste that this now has to be trashed. Do you offer customers a reduced upgrade to Ultra?

I woke up this morning to a news alert that our @GirlsWhoCode middle-grade book series was banned by some school districts as part of the Mom for Liberty effort to ban books. To be honest, I am so angry I cannot breathe.

This is my favourite story about the Queen

@nasjaq__ It’s not clear what happened here. Can someone explain?

[Peter Foti @Fotiman]

@TroublesomeF This is super dumb, and annoying to the actual users of the system. It eliminates the ability to use many passphrases. This may seem trivial to Linksys, but this makes me so angry.

@ms_hagen @NHgov @GovChrisSununu @salesforce @POTUS @JoeBiden There is definitely some poorly designed and developed software at play here. And poor execution. It does seem to be improving a little now (if you're quick enough, once the fields become enabled you can Activate before you get redirected).

Merry Equinox to all residents of planet Earth. On this day, Earth’s tilted axis points neither towards nor away from the Sun.

Astronomically, that gives us Spring north of the equator, and Autumn south of it.

Also 12 hours of daylight and 12 hours of nighttime - worldwide.

Hey developers, please stop disabling copy/paste in form fields! 🚨

It’s awful UX.

It’s confusing.

It doesn’t improve security.

It breaks password managers.

It risks typos on critical info.

If asked to do so, push back. Please don’t break the web.

"Remote for now" is a good way to not hire great people.

@ados_me @Carvana @Carvana This is happening left and right. You’ve got some major house cleaning to do.

[Peter Foti @Fotiman]

@the1erichines @Carvana Yeah, delivery of the vehicles is a major component of their business model. It should operate like a well oiled machine. Likewise, there should never be support wait times. An hour on hold is unacceptable.

I’d like to post more software/code related tweets, but I’m usually on my phone when on Twitter. Are there good options or do I just need to switch to a computer? Suggestions?

@LeaVerou @fantasai I would expect to have no loss by default, so the short side should be stretched, giving 200px by 200px, regardless of whether the image was 200x100 or 100x200. Seems another property needed to define stretch vs fit vs crop.

[Peter Foti @Fotiman]

@LeaVerou @thtg88 @fantasai There is definitely one wrong answer though, which is 200px by 100px (an aspect ratio of 2:1).

@AMLTrackSanta_ @NoradSanta 9pm! Yikes, I’d hate to be a kid seeing that Santa had already passed by!
