can someone point me to a CSS tutorial "this is for folks who used to be pretty decent at CSS from about 2004–2014 but who haven't really written much since and floats aren't what people use anymore so what do I do?"

I had way too much fun doing this. Some people thought I was seriously a CVS Receipt Designer. Thank you to @ADotMartin for the inspiration. https://www.reddit.com/r/mac/comments/f6de3n/im_a_receipt_designer_for_cvs_pharmacy_ama/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=iossmf

One of the reasons I dislike stacked line graphs so much. It's so hard to see the performance of each item. This tells the same story but allows you to pull apart the weaker players.

I find it so interesting that people want free content from us daily, but then get so tilted when we make some money or do a sponsorship or something

Would you prefer I just make thousands of hours worth of content and make nothing?

Would you prefer I quit and get a job?

That's my Amazon cart. I do that on purpose to stop me from buying random things. If I still need it the next time I visit the site, I'll buy it. Otherwise I just delete it; it obviously wasn't that important.

The part of this process I hate the most is my local ISP refused for months to offer me any other option until I hit them with industry jargon then suddenly the magic words opened the gates (in this case it was “do you offer wireless dedicated backhaul connections?”)

Zoom acquired Keybase today.
Keybase helped me to identify a trend in the software industry: using a pretty UI to cover up the disruption of an open ecosystem with a closed, centralized replacement. Keybase seemed cool on the face of it - making encryption easier is a laudible goal, and PGP certainly could use the improvement. But, thanks to Keybase, now I ask different questions upfront.
Beware the Keybase formula:
1. Integrates with an existing, open ecosystem
2. May have open-source clients, but server is closed source and does not federate
3. Pretty UI and good marketing
4. VC funded
