I’m on today’s episode of ShopTalk Show chatting about recent, past, and current standards efforts for HTML video and audio performance and accessibility. (Reminder: standard video and audio [loading=lazy] lands in Chrome in 1 week!) Available wherever you get your podcasts shoptalkshow.com https://shoptalkshow.com

One apparent consequence of all this generative ai fervor is I've been drawing again. Sure, perhaps in spite, but I even drew something I liked enough to order it on a shirt. Never done that before. So, thanks?

Just a guy sitting a little farther from the wifi router, waiting literal minutes for the interactive section of the fancy project management app's otherwise-static pages to a list of 10 links to tickets.

Thanks @keithamus.social for the reminder today that any sufficiently long css property name is indistinguishable from standard 😅

We heard you like waiting for build steps so we made waiting for build steps the entire thing engineers do now
