My dear front-end developers (and anyone who’s interested in the future of interfaces): I have crawled through depths of hell to bring you, for the foreseeable years, one of the more important foundational pieces of UI engineering (if not in implementation then certainly at least in concept): Fast, accurate and comprehensive userland text measurement algorithm in pure TypeScript, usable for laying out entire web pages without CSS, bypassing DOM measurements and reflow

Extremely heartening responses

What is happening in Pakistan? 200% hike on high octane fuel, 20% hike on petrol and diesel happened overnight. Petrol now is sold at 321 PKR a litre. Smart lockdowns announced in Sindh province, so that their fuel can be conserved. Restricting movement, gatherings and public events. Schools are shut for two weeks. Government offices have moved to four day working week. Private offices told to shift 50% staff to work from home. We're not doing any of it. Still some leaders are spreading rumours that there will be lockdown. This rumour mongering should not happen. It's being done to spread fear. Markets and shopping centres are ordered to be closed by 9.30 PM in Pakistan. These are all the media reports. All universities shut down and shifted to online learning in Bangladesh as there's no electricity. Five hour rotational power cuts are happening. Implemented for domestic consumers in the city of Dhaka. Fuel station across Dhaka closed due to shortage of octane and diesel. So, the situation across the world is not good. We're managing in a way that our citizens don't face any difficulty. There's a contrast in price I want to say. In India, nothing has changed. Whereas in Pakistan, plus 20% to plus 200% price depending on petrol, diesel, high octane etc. Bangladesh has rationed stations closed, supply cut 10 to 15%. Excise duty action, we have cut Rs. 10 per litre. Neither Pakistan nor Bangladesh have responded. So, India among these neighbourhood countries is maintaining a level of stability. We're following Hon'ble PM Shri @narendramodi Ji's guidance on the same. - Smt @nsitharaman in Rajya Sabha

So what exactly was looted from India? The Mughals didn't take the mountains. The British didn't cart away the rivers, the forests, the air, the lakes, the minerals. They couldn't. What they took was recoverable. What we've done to ourselves isn't. In 75 years of self-rule, we have managed to hollow out something they never could. We were handed a country and we handed it back to smaller, pettier versions of the same masters. We called it democracy. We called it progress. Decade after a decade, the politician became the new zamindar. The loot just changed its paperwork. Elections became the conduit. But the last decade. The unhinged last decade. That's when something else started rotting. Not just institutions or infrastructure or the economy. What started dying was something that others hold dearly. Decency. The basic willingness to see another person as a person. Hate turned into policy. Policy turned into pride. And a man who burned his neighbour's house started calling himself a patriot. A society that feels like an echo chamber built on a hollow. Every surface is noise. Nationalism without nation-building. Sentiment without sense. Propaganda wearing the facade of progress. The tragedy isn't just what was stolen. It's what we surrendered. Willingly. Enthusiastically. We didn't regress because someone forced us to. We regressed because we agreed to. And here we are. Standing exposed and bare, looted by our own.

@sandeep_PT In what is the converse of western values turning out to be mythology, Iranian leaders painted by west as fanatics are emerging as legendary strategists , selfless , fearless & living upto the greatness of an ancient civilisation .

❗️In the fifth and final Beagle Rescue Trial, Dan, Beau, and Ben have just been found guilty. Before the jury deliberated, here are the last words of Dan’s closing speech they heard: "Whatever happens, whatever you decide, and whatever consequences I may or may not face, I will be at peace knowing that the dog I carried out of that place is living a happy life because of what we did. To me, and to them, that is worth everything.” Join the team, help us shut down MBR Acres and free all the beagles: buff.ly/aulXfOC The fight isn’t over. #rescue #beagles

Papa Woof und Krampus und Bleaken
At 40, Franz Kafka (1883-1924), who never married and had no children, walked through the park in Berlin when he met a girl who was crying because she had lost her favourite doll. She and Kafka searched for the doll unsuccessfully. Kafka told her to meet him there the next day and they would come back to look for her. The next day, when they had not yet found the doll, Kafka gave the girl a letter “written” by the doll saying “please don’t cry. I took a trip to see the world. I will write to you about my adventures.” Thus began a story which continued until the end of Kafka’s life. During their meetings, Kafka read the letters of the doll carefully written with adventures and conversations that the girl found adorable. Finally, Kafka brought back the doll (he bought one) that had returned. “It doesn’t look like my doll at all,“ said the girl. Kafka handed her another letter in which the doll wrote: "my travels have changed me.” the little girl hugged the new doll and brought her happy home. A year later Kafka died. Many years later, the now-adult girl found a letter inside the doll. In the tiny letter signed by Kafka it was written: “Everything you love will probably be lost, but in the end, love will return in another way.”

They cut her vocal cords because she was making too much noise. And forced her to give up her babies for experiments. When she's old & broken, they'll sell her off for science, too. But she's still crying for help. That's why we're going back. For this mama. For them all.
