> 2020 they had $2m+ ARR

You've got an extra "R" in there. In 2020 their only revenue from was non-recurring lifetime software purchases. Like SaaS if you had a 100% churn rate.

Very good point, and I imagine part of the issue here... everything they sell is one-time payment, more of a reason they should have been preparing for the music to stop

I’ve had swiftbestpractices.com forever and still haven’t done anything with it. Meanwhile I’ve been going ham on my latest purchase of myfacespacebook.com. It’s weird the things that actually motivate us.

If anyone would like to add some Christmas lights to their site I made a little web component to add a little cheer to any site.

You can see it in action at https://bradlyfeeley.com and https://birdymusic.com

Dang… I don’t even use React and it still brings down my sites. Good beats I guess.

I recently implemented dark/light mode for the first time and was really surprised to find that in order to add a toggle I had to duplicate a both of vars/styles and use JavaScript. I'm looking forward to not having to deal with that cruft in the future.

You can do without javascript. Checkbox `:checked` + `label` trick for toggling states still works.

Thanks, I’ll check this out!

Here's a version with a 3-way theme selector (light / system / dark) using radio inputs.

Would be interesting to hear from Cloudflare the extent of exploitation before today. I'm assuming they can see if/when this started being exploited.

One of my best and most productive work situations was remote with a week[0] together every quarter. Key to this was scheduling the next trip while we were together to make sure it was on the books. We got to meet new team members, share some meals together, work through new architecture designs with a whiteboard, and plan. Not much got done during that week, but we sure got a lot done each quarter.

[0]: This was actually Monday-Thursday with travel on Friday

This sounds like what PI planning is imagined to be in "safe".

That does make sense given the prompt "What is the current year and is 2026 next year?" provides the correct answer.
