  2. While @ChromeDevTools always has been great to figure out navigation/resource timing, there's been a blind spot regarding the server side. Not any more: blog.chromium.org/2018/02/chrome-65-beta-css-paint-api-and.html. Annotate what's happening on the server with the Server-Timing HTTP header: w3c.github.io/server-timing/#dfn-server-timing-header-field.

  6. Wow, this Web Share API bug ⤵️ is concerning. const pwn = () => { navigator.share({ text: 'Check out this cute kitten!', url: 'file:///etc/passwd', }); }; Turns out Safari actually shares the _contents_ of /etc/passwords, and allows for stealing the history, too. x.com/firt/status/1298338366065451008

  11. #A11Y Tip: Don't set absolute font sizes! If someone has their default browser font size bumped up/down, you override their choice and force them to zoom. 😔 Instead, set the font size to 100% on the :root {} level and make everything a function thereof via em or rem. 🎉
