    Yep, I was a little surprised about that too, seem like it is valid though https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Reference/...

    The main use case I was thinking of is being able to use an inline SVG, but with external resources inside of it (like say a CSS background image using url(...)) in such a way that…

    > How can you prevent it from accessing a parent doc when its not a separate document. By turning it into a document boundary when you use the sandbox attribute, kinda similar to l…

    It'd be nice if there was a sandbox attribute you could add to inline tags, like the attribute that'd let you opt out of all the potentially "dynamic" stuff inside of an SVG like s…

    Little bit of extra detail about static closures in PHP for anyone interested: https://www.php.net/manual/en/functions.anonymous.php#functi...

    Just tried it on my Mac and sadly it doesn’t seem like it. I’m still on Sequoia, so possibly it does it on Tahoe, but probably unlikely. That’s a shame. It’d be nice if someone on …

    It's not quite the same, but I've moved to using *.localhost for all my local web dev work. All modern browsers will resolve *.localhost to 127.0.0.1 internally. No need to setup a…

    Little bit saddened the sqlite provider doesn't use the SQLite archive format under the hood. Seems like it'd be a good fit for what they're trying to achieve + give you an easy wa…

    I'm not sure why the Falkirk Wheel keeps getting posted to HN, but hey I'm not gonna complain! I'll repost what I shared last time though, there's another much older boat lift on t…

    Just a guess but why do I get the feeling it’s because someone who setup sei.co.jp in Azure Entra (aka Azure AD) some how managed to add/claim the domain “example.com” against thei…

    The relative date formats are super useful. It can get a bit confusing when there's timezones involved though. https://www.php.net/manual/en/datetime.formats.php#datetime....

    Yep, locally where I am there’s one postcode for all the houses on one side of the street (all the even numbered houses) and another for the opposite side (all the odd numbers.) Pr…

    Kinda meta, but this is the first time in a long time where I've put only the first half of my postcode in expecting it not to work and been surprised. Most of these "find your nea…

    My favourite thing about these is that nearly everyone just kind of agreed on using that same pixel font for the text on the right side.

    A long while ago I wrote a very simple static site generator for personal site, mainly just to play around with using GitHub/Cloudflare pages to host my personal site. Then a coupl…

    My two favourite bits of git add -p that aren't mentioned here: the / (search) command to search unstaged hunks for a specific keyword rather than having to jump through all the in…

    It's not exactly the same, but I definitely remember Microsoft releasing some kind of conversion tool around the start of Office 2007's life that could convert the newer XML based …

    From that diff it looks to me that if ~/.mozilla exists OR if MOZ_LEGACY_HOME is set it uses ~/.mozilla, otherwise it uses the $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/.mozilla directory instead. So no mi…

    I believe that was part of the original plan for Proton, but with the success of the Steam Deck that got shelved and it moved to a focus purely on Linux. I don't think it's ever li…

    Maybe this is a lack of understanding on my part, but this bit of the explanation sets off alarm bells for me: > Under the hood, we're building a client-sourced RAG for the DOM. An…
