Playing in a session in Charlie’s, my old watering hole in Cork from my Art College days three decades ago.

Up and about in the morning.

Spiky green chestnut shells hanging from a chestnut tree with blue sky and a green meadow in the background.

Conkers.

A super-cute little brown-haired dog with an adorable face full of character (and tongue out). A large white short-haired ‘doo of some kind that looks like it’s smiling.

Still thinking about these good doggos from Bark In The Park yesterday.

A fluffy tabby cat all curled up indoors, with its eyes closed, looking very content indeed. A fluffy tabby cat lying on its back outdoors looking very content.

Not my cat, but I’m very fond of her.

A beautiful fluffy tabby cat sits primly on the decking in the garden looking up.

Jessica standing on a hillside overlooking a wide expanse of countryside.

Up on Devil’s Dyke.

A table full of large plates of traditional pub grub like fish’n’chips and a ploughman’s, with smaller plates of olives and Padron peppers. Jessica in a pub garden with a table full of food. Quaint half-timbered houses with an old red telephone box in front of them and green hills behind.

Pub lunch in Fulking.

Let websites framebust out of native apps | Holovaty.com

Adrian brings an excellent historical perspective to the horrifying behaviour of Facebook’s in-app browsers:

Somewhere along the way, despite a reasonably strong anti-framing culture, framing moved from being a huge no-no to a huge shrug. In a web context, it’s maligned; in a native app context, it’s totally ignored.

Yup, frames are back—but this time they’re in native apps—with all their shocking security implications:

The more I think about it, the more I cannot believe webviews with unfettered JavaScript access to third-party websites ever became a legitimate, accepted technology. It’s bad for users, and it’s bad for websites.

By the way, this also explains that when you try browsing the web in an actual web browser on your mobile device, every second website shoves a banner in your face saying “download our app.” Browsers offer users some protection. In-app webviews offer users nothing but exploitation.

Portrait of a beautiful brown dog with a brown nose and soulful brown eyes sitting in a pub garden in front of any ivy-covered wall.

My buddy Brody is very handsome (and A Very Good Boy).

Waves of yellowing grass covering the hillsides under ominous grey clouds.

A field in England.

A rock band in full blast in front of a sweaty audience with stage lights illuminating the musicians.

Danced my ass off to @TheAfghanWhigs tonight!
