@theo I get the feeling the cursor agent’s window was “inspired” by Codex.

Working on some gesture and hotkey feedback for Video.js

@simonswiss I just want Apple to bring back Aperture 😢

A lot of work going into v10!

[Sam Potts @sam_potts]

This has been awesome to work on. The team has smashed it. Looking forward to getting stuck into more skins and polishing what we have ready for GA.

Video.js v10 beta is here!

Video.js v10 is a complete rewrite combining four (!!) open source players into one.

With 88% smaller default bundles, first-class React and TypeScript support, composable architecture, and beautiful new skins, you’re sure to fall back in love with your video player ♥️

And of course, it's built into Tailwind with `<bg|text|etc>-current/<opacity>` 😍

[Sam Potts @sam_potts]

There have been loads of really useful CSS features added recently, but being able to derive colors, especially from currentColor, is a game changer.

For example:
`oklch(from currentColor l c h / 0.8)`

…gives me a live 0.8-alpha version of currentColor. So handy!👌🔥

@adrianmg Always Nucleo or roll your own.

@simonswiss Good luck with the search mate!

Final result, a modern  iSight 4K Camera ✨

[Sam Potts @sam_potts]

@rafahari Does the iSight still work?!

If you're looking for someone who can designgineer, record and produce videos, teach, talk on stage, be a positive team player...

Hit me up. Looking for remote roles as I live in a small town in Australia.

[Sam Potts @sam_potts]

@simonswiss Sorry to hear mate! Hope you can at least enjoy the holiday and you find something else quickly!

[Sam Potts @sam_potts]

@mihar_22 You'll have to give me a rundown of your setup. I need to get up to speed. I've just been using Claude Code now and then for the boring bits!

[Sam Potts @sam_potts]

@flyosity That whole feature is painful. It’s obvious very little effort is put into maintaining or improving it.

[Sam Potts @sam_potts]

@cloudflare @eastdakota could someone please help out working out why the R2 cost for my open source project has suddenly increased over the last 3 months? Everything is immutable and highly cacheable. Support have unfortunately been useless and just giving copy/paste replies.

[Sam Potts @sam_potts]

@simonswiss Gotta love a summer storm ⛈️

[Sam Potts @sam_potts]

@adamwathan Have you tried good coffee? 😅

[Sam Potts @sam_potts]

@wesbos IE6 of course

[Sam Potts @sam_potts]

@adamwathan @eastdakota Cloudflare definitely needs better support. I’ve been struggling to talk to someone useful too.

Are you using R2 by any chance? I’ve been a big increase in R2 cost recently. Cloudflare seems to be ignoring cache headers and hitting the origin (R2) way more than it should.
