      Sorry we haven’t updated React DevTools in Firefox for awhile. We’ve tried, but their extensions review team won’t let us use React source code in React DevTools because it’s considered third-party.

      Day 23. This morning I did one of my favorite running activities (and all around great word): the fartlek. A lot of light easy jogging with unstructured short bursts of sprinting sprinkled in. It was super playful and just a ton of fun!

      Two photos: The first shows a man and a woman. The woman is wearing a black overcoat with aback shawl, charcoal knit, black trousers, and black riding boots. The man has a black double-breasted overcoat with a black sport coat, black long-sleeve polo, black gloves, charcoal pleated flannel trousers, and black hiking boots. 

The other photo also shows the same two people. This time, the woman is wering a brown jacket with a darker brown turtleneck and beige shorts. The man is wearing a tan herringbone double-breasted suit with a tan zip-up jacket and beige knit.

      it’s so weird. FF market share is so low and yet, as far as i can remember, its extension review process is way more annoying than chrome’s. it’s almost like FF doesn’t understand that it is actually in FF’s interest to have FF versions of popular developer tools
