Oasis reuniting in 2025.

Did you know they are named after my local sports centre, which closed during Covid times?

en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oasis_

They are hoping to re-open the sports centre in the coming years.

It had a large hall that hosted gigs.

This seems like the stars aligning? Might they…? Could they?!

(I suspect that’s a “definitely maybe”!)

🤓 When I come out the other side of this very intense phase of life they call middle-age, I’m going to be more of a nerd than I’ve ever been!!!!!

That was weird. Back from a trip to my in-laws. About 130 miles.

On the way there our EV did about 4.2 miles/kWh. We started at 100% and ended with 9%.

On the way back we got 4.8 miles/kWh. Started at 100% and ended with 22%.

No A/C or heating on either way. Similar conditions.

I’ve never known a discrepancy like this. Did we just have a strong headwind?

Did someone say or boost something here about links to HTML IDs not being reliable? I’m sure I saw something but can’t find it.

I know this was all very well considered. But I find it baffling that WordPress always comes to the conclusion that the best thing to do would be to reinvent the wheel… and the tyre… and the axle, creating maintenance burden on its own developers; making people that already understand wheels learn the new wheel; and hampering developers that learn the new wheel because their wheel is different to everyone else’s. And for what benefit? I don’t get it.

I've kinda run out of interesting things to do with Turbo Admin, so instead of doing useful real world stuff, I'm building fun easter eggs! 😂

YES! I DID IT!!!

plugin actions from Turbo Admin.

I wanted this for SO long. It was harder than you'd think.

Will be in a release soon.

And yes, plugins do weird stuff that might mean this is messy. I don't care. I do the basics. I can't handle every situation. It's flippin dark magic as it is!!

😀 I don’t mean to be trite or dismissive of all the bad stuff in the world, but we need to laugh more and be excited about small things.

I love Dave and Chris on Shop Talk Show podcast. They just sound like they’re having a good time chatting.

I love The Vergecast. They’re enjoying hanging out.

So much “content” is stale and boring and safe.

I want to hear more people enjoying themselves.

JavaScript question/help…

Context: I’m building a bunch of DOM elements from an array of configuration objects.

The objects might have callbacks that need to be called on events on the created DOM elements.

Question: Is it OK to just add the callbacks as “custom properties” on the DOM elements when creating them? Is that bad for some reason? Is there a better way?

Thanks in advance.

P.S. This is vanilla JS. No framework!!
