at the @CSSWG.org (@CSSWG) F2F (face to face) meeting^1, hosted by @Apple.com (@Apple) in Cupertino. Not counting at #w3cTPAC, the prior #CSSWG F2F meeting I went to was 2.5y ago, also in Cupertino, and before that 2019 in SF. Good to see so many longterm colleagues in-person.

The hot tub controller/heater is on its way back, but won't arrive until tomorrow evening. It's expected to drop to 28° tonight, so I had to drain the tub so the pipes don't freeze. But it's ok because this water needed to be changed out anyway, so Sunday I will try to get the tub back up in operation.

It's crazy that CDs are the most reliable way to play a list of songs in a specific order with nothing else. Also burning CDs is super easy now too, easier than trying to put a list of files on a USB drive in a specific order. Also also my burned CDs from 20-25 years ago still play just fine, which is definitely something I questioned 20 years ago, so to my past self: the answer is yes.

It was bothering me that I messed up the alignment of the compost bin on the cabinet door so I fixed it. There was exactly enough free space between the bin and hinge to move it so it exactly clears the other door.
