    Japan airport security is basically pre-2001 (sans theater) * keep shoes & jacket on * metal detector Unlike: American airport security * remove hoodie, jacket, etc. * slower and more radiative millimeter/backscatter I went through both Tokyo/Haneda and Chitose airport security this week. Haneda's security was also ok with using a single tray for liquids, devices, laptop, coins etc. for their x-ray machines, in contrast to U.S. airport security requiring separate trays for each laptop, and any liquids or anything else. I can only conclude that the TSA's extra procedures and expensive radar devices are a waste of time & resources, no more than a perpetuation of a culture of fear since 2001. I remain hopeful that the TSA will eventually adopt measures similar to Japanese airports and return to just using metal detectors.

    @chrismessina we can make #AMP smaller: * script: ban JSONLD * meta: ban "property" attr, schema-org make optional (not required) * link rel=canonical * meta name=viewport * script ampproject * style body opacity * anything "amp-*" allow but make loading expected to be optional by default: * picture, source * img - by default works like a span with its alt text * perhaps allow per domain user opt-in, starting with same-origin * any @font-face re: https://github.com/ampproject/amphtml/blob/master/spec/amp-html-format.md#required-markup

    Remember when I declared js;dr? #AMP: “not include author-written JavaScript, nor 3rd-party scripts” https://www.ampproject.org/how-it-works/#not%20include%20any%20author-written%20JavaScript,%20nor%20any%20third-party%20scripts Background: tantek.com/2015/069/t1/js-dr-javascript-required-dead However, View Source on ampproject.org/how-it-works, and they’ve still got some work to do, e.g. their misuse of <blockquote> for second level headings, e.g.: <blockquote>AMP HTML is pretty fast.</blockquote> Remember in the 1990s when presentational web authors would use "blockquote" to mean, "indent this"? @Zeldman remembers. HTML has a high performance element for second level headings. Curiously enough it’s called <h2>, e.g. that AMP Project page should be using: <h2>AMP HTML is pretty fast.</h2> But this is any easy fix. I’m sure it was a minor oversight. Because why would someone worried about size & performance use 20 characters of open close tag names, when 4 would do? Consider this an open challenge, what else can you cut from AMP? @KevinMarks already has some suggestions: http://www.kevinmarks.com/ampreaction.html

The new W3C license more explicitly allows experimental improvements on W3C specifications, in particular outside W3C, including publishing publicly (with attribution), with the potential for reincorporation into W3C specs. It’s a big step forward, and hopefully experience with this more permissive license will help build confidence in the use of more permissive licenses in general, towards the goal of increasing use of CC0+OWFa for open standards. † http://www.w3.org/Consortium/Legal/copyright-software ‡ https://wiki.mozilla.org/Standards/license Related: • tantek.com/2015/150/t1/running-for-w3cab-again Previously: • tantek.com/2011/168/b1/practices-good-open-web-standards-development Aside: • https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dagger_%28typography%29#Modern_usage

Going to set aside a few things to donate every day, clustering them into canvas bags. When a bag is full (or nothing more to donate of that type of item), take it to Goodwill. Repeat until everything left is useful for a positive future, or a part of my identity I want to keep and reinforce. Repair things and only buy things as consumables, replacements/upgrades of current useful things, or to grow new areas of creativity & optimism.
