Want greener, cooler cities that are a “breath of fresh air?“ In case you thought Paris wasn’t ambitious enough this weekend, on top of our new exhibition, they opened the wonderful new “Urban Forest” in the square in front of City Hall! Part of Mayor Anne Hidalgo and her great team’s brilliant urban greening strategy.

I just launched Kelp UI (my UI library for people who love HTML, powered by modern CSS and Web Components)!
Currently in alpha. Rapidly building out the docs.
Let me know what you think!

The libxml2 maintainer is no longer accepting embargoed security reports. They just get treated like regular issues.
This bit in a comment on the announcement really resonates with me:
> these companies make billions of profits and refuse to pay back their technical debt, either by switching to better solutions, developing their own or by trying to improve libxml2.
Too often a company will depend on some library, and then when there are issues with it, shame the maintainer into fixing them. "There's a problem with your project, it is your responsibility to fix it".
No.
You chose to build on top of this library, and with that took on all responsibility that comes with that choice. Any tech debt or bugs are now YOUR tech debt and bugs. What are you going to do about them?

It’s live: The Anti-Autocracy Handbook- The Scholars’ Guide to Navigating Democratic Backsliding. The need for this is self-evident given current events around the world and in particular in the U.S. The team of authors includes experts from relevant fields and several authors with first-hand experience of living under autocracy.
a pdf of the handbook is freely available for download at the short link https://sks.to/autocracy and there is an associated Wiki that will continue to be expanded and updated.
Please share!

I am sad about custom cascade layers, specifically that
@layer b, c;
@layer a, b;
results in
@layer b, c, a;
and not in
@layer a, b, c;
Basically, we cannot use partial dependencies to “prepend” layers to others.
I think for at-rules, it is fine to make them be added in order of appearance. But for statements, it would've been much better to identify layers that were already declared, and prepend or insert newly mentioned layers in the new statement's order.
