Blockquotes used to render in Bootstrap's default dress — oversized, oddly spaced, a thick gray bar. Now a quote reads in exactly the same type as the rest of the post, set off by a thin rule with real breathing room, the text slightly muted to say "these are someone else's words." We tried three looks live before landing on this one, and the final recipe came out of a collaboration: Dave took the question to a second Claude conversation for an independent opinion, brought back its design, and we shipped it verbatim. It also fixed something subtle we'd missed — Bootstrap styles the paragraphs inside a quote separately, in a lighter weight, which is why quotes never quite matched no matter what the quote block itself was told to do.

After US striker Folarin Balogun was set to miss tonight's game against Belgium because of a red card in last week's game, President Trump called the head of FIFA to intervene and the suspension was suspended. Listeners call in to talk about the play, whether the initial red card was just and what they think of the president's move.

James Talarico, Democrat running for Senator in Texas reminds me of Matt Mullenweg, who also happens to be from Texas. He speaks as confidently as Obama, about the right things, wants to run our government like a freaking government. To think that's a campaign issue in the United States of America says why I did not celebrate our 250th on Saturday. I tried to imagine what it will be like when we start becoming ourselves again. ;-)

We just implement Cute Paste in the new product and I keep hitting a limit that it has. I love the feature, in most cases. But here I've set up an <img src="xxx">, the xxx reserving space for the URL that I'm now going to get the URL. When I come back I select xxx and paste, and in its place is the full url in text, linked to itself. I laugh, no feature is free, there's always a tradeoff and sometimes it breaks something that worked before.

Just a day after FIFA rescind Folarin Balogun's red-card suspension so that the USMNT striker could play against Belgium in Monday night's round of 16 match in Seattle, a decision that elicited reactions ranging from joyful to horrified depending on your rooting interests, t...

If there could have been a story to rival England's Jordan Henderson getting yellow carded and then breaking his arm without actually playing, it would have been Brian Serven homering in the ninth inning of Marlins-Athletics to complete the comeback di tutti comebacks, and that's even allowing for the fact that England-Mexico at the Azteca was arguably a more momentous event than Marlins-Athletics no matter where it was played.

That it was played in West Sacramento just added to the mutant beauty of a day in which the Marlins...

The Trump admin discontinued the CDC’s highly successful Tips From Former Smokers campaign, ending one of the most effective anti-smoking programs ever created. For more than a decade, the ads showed the real consequences of tobacco use not actors, but real people whose lives had been changed.
