Since this advice was well-received elsewhere, I thought I’d mention it here too: in CSS, you can just repeat selectors to increase a rule’s specificity. `.x` b=1, `.x.x` b=2. w3.org/TR/selectors/#…

Today, I too have tried and failed at the Sisyphean task of getting @SendGrid to accept a basic spam report. It’s been a while since I encountered a company whose entire business operation relies on *not* being blocklisted trying so hard to get blocklisted.

Happy 21st birthday to the DOM Level 3 Events spec! First introduced in September 2000, it’s still only a Working Draft. Will it make it to CR status before brain–computer interfaces make keyboards obsolete? Only time will tell! w3.org/TR/2000/WD-DOM… w3.org/TR/uievents/

This is great news, not just for macOS users, but also for web devs. VoiceOver is (IMO) one of the most usable screen readers, but it can be quirky. Firefox’s excellent a11y dev tools ought to make supporting it much easier. Great work @firefox team! blog.mozilla.org/accessibility/…
