Melissa may become the most powerfully destructive storm ever to form in the Western Pacific. It is aimed squarely at an island nation which rarely sees powerful storms. The int'l community that normally spearheads preparation, recovery, and rebuilding efforts is missing one of its major funders.

I say this as someone who was NOT a popular jock in high school: Allowing losers who struggle to socialize into positions of influence because they could use a computer was a mistake. A generation of guys angry they couldn't do a pull up & got turned down for dates is taking it out on the country

A brief guide on writing good alt text for images, which suggests including 1. Who or what 2. Their expression or emotion 3. A description of the image 4. Notable colors 5. Interesting features The included example image and description: "A capybara looking relaxed in a hot spa. Yellow yuzu fruits are floating in the water, and one is balanced on the top of the capybara's head." Dan's addition: saving the "interesting thing" for last is a bit like writing a joke - end with the memorable punchline!

Irregular reminder that alt text on images is a valuable accessibility tool, and also lets your images show in search results or respect mute lists. For instance, I found the below image by searching "capybara alt text".

Folks, you can't report the United States to its manager. There's no superhero coming to save us.

We don't need one giant act of heroism. We need millions of small acts of solidarity. Help one person in your community for nothing in return. Then, do it again. And again.

That's the revolution.
