@SimeonBrownMP Obviously never ridden a bike in your life. If you had you’d realize you can get where you need to go really quick. I’ll send you my 3 year olds trainer wheels in a month or two
The web already gave us everything we need: HTML, CSS, and JS. A framework should amplify those tools, not replace them with its own dialect. Aurelia treats the platform as the foundation, not a problem to be patched over. That's why Aurelia code feels timeless.
AI enthusiasts be like:
"AI can generate an entire HTML front-end from a simple prompt! It can even build an OpenAPI backend! It's coming for your job!"
Also AI enthusiasts:
"We can't use HTTP, HTML, REST, or OpenAPI for interop; we need MCP because AI doesn't understand any of that."
I get that there are legit reasons for something like MCP. But let's not keep pushing this contradiction.
The dissonance is loud.
The CTU has taken a look at the costs of the Cook Strait Ferry upgrade (sometimes called the IReX Project). It's a huge deal, with a huge price tag. The recent decision by the Coalition Government to end it however should be viewed against the other decisions they have made. A 🧵

We just wrapped up some great Web Component meetings at W3C TPAC this year! There were five dedicated sessions on related topics, with excellent implementor engagement across the board.
A few highlights include:
* Firefox intends to ship Declarative Shadow DOM very soon! 🎊
* The remaining major open questions on Scoped Custom Element Registries have been resolved. Microsoft is implementing a prototype in Chromium now.
* Google has an early prototype of DOM Parts available now in Chromium under experimental platform features.
* There was a ton of interest (and I think excitement) about bringing custom attributes/behaviors/enhancements/mixins to HTML.
* Cross Root ARIA proposals are getting more refined, and folks are now looking at how best to harmonize simplicity for common/simple cases with power for complex scenarios.
I'll be following up with a blog post providing more details in the coming days.
165! That's the number of lessons planned for my upcoming Web Component Engineering course.
I spent this week doing a final review and edit pass on the entire course.
The screenshot below shows the full course module list. Next week we begin video production. 😀
YES! Finished writing module 9 of my upcoming Web Components Engineering course focused on the modern Web Platform.
This module, titled "integrating with Forms," has 23 lessons covering form association, submission, validation, reset, state restore, focus, styling, and more.
My most recent blog post was about HTML and the DOM as they exist today. But this week's post is about new W3C proposals and browser prototypes for the future of HTML. This will be game changing.
