I made a new blog post!

In this update, I write about bereavement and dealing with insurance companies, my ongoing auto-immune flare (Lupus), moving, my new phone and switching to GrapheneOS, returning to Debian, setting up a homelab server, and things that I found interesting over the past couple of weeks.

The Invoker Commands API is the new hotness for a declarative #HTML solution to the problem “click and see something happen!!”

However…

If we’re inside shadow DOM and the button being clicked is supposed to do a thing via its host component, then uh, nope. 🤨

Thankfully there’s always a workaround in the Wide World of the Web, so I’ve written it up and here it is!

😁 Yay for building directly on top of platform mechanics. 👏 #JavaScript #WebComponents #WebDev

Please run your own tests.

I outline my methodology in the post. It’s not perfect, but I try three languages, hidden content, and dynamic content across real sites.

If you’re only testing one (common) language on one visible non-dynamic control, that’s far less robust.

A valid HTML zip bomb, ache.one/notes/html_zip_bomb by @ache

The article shows how to create an HTML zip bomb for AI crawlers not respecting the `robots.txt` file.

A zip bomb is a huge file (like 10Gib), that once compressed, has a reasonable size like 10Mib. An AI crawler will uncompressed it and will see all its memory being consumed, leading to a possible crash.

That’s an effective way to counter-attack disrespectful AI crawlers.
