I've added schema support to my LLM Python library and a CLI tool: you can now provide a JSON schema - or a new concise schema DSL - and supported models will return data matching that format simonwillison.net/2025/Feb/28/…

If the extent of your WCAG testing is running axe / ARC / WAVE / EAAC and that’s it, not only are you only testing ~30% of WCAG, but my own 2023 testing shows those tools catch under 15% of issues:

Manual testing is still a thing.

Which you need to know how to do, especially if bumping into `<canvas>`.

librewolf and other Firefox forks are a band aid. None of Firefox forks has a capacity to continue developing Gecko if Mozilla goes full evil.

Of course, no one claims that Servo is ready, far from it, and Firefox forks are currently the best thing available. I use Zen for the past few months. But this post was about investing to the future. Mozilla and Google need a competition, we need a browser engine that isn't tied to a corporation.

Today, Friday, February 28, 2025, is Doomsday. Nope, I'm not referring to any particular horrible thing which has happened or may/will soon happen. Rather, Doomsday refers to an easy way to calculate weekdays for this year in your head. For each year, the last day of February, be it the 28th or the 29th, is that year's doomsday. Once you know a year's doomsday, you can easily figure out weekdays, since the following dates also fall on the same weekday: March 14 (Pi day), April 4, May 9, June 6, July 11, August 8, September 5, October 10, November 7, December 12. In other words, these dates are as follows, and it's particularly easy with the Even months. The following dates are in American month/date notation. 03/14, 04/04, 05/09, 06/06, 07/11, 08/08, 09/05, 10/10, 11/07, 12/12.

Fière de l'industrie forestière du Québec qui est prête à "laisser dormir" son bois pendant plus d'un mois sans le vendre aux États-Unis en cas de droits de douane!

« [La stratégie], c’est de garder le bois pendant quatre à cinq semaines. Il y a un just in time aux États-Unis, ils n’ont pas les cours bien pleines de bois », a fait valoir Réjean Paré, le fondateur du groupe Rémabec.

Oh wow. Skype is shutting down after 23 years, 14 years after Microsoft bought it.

"It’s not clear how many people are impacted. The most recent numbers that Microsoft had shared were in 2023, when it said it had more than 36 million users — a long way from Skype’s peak of 300 million users."
