Trying to figure out the CodePen 2.0 editor
Recently, CodePen introduced CodePen 2.0, and since then, I have been trying to figure out how to modify my workflow for this blog to use it. I have been using CodePen to host my code demos for over six years now, and it feels weird to change, but it seems like a positive development. Lately, I have been writing a lot of posts about how to use Vue.js with Web Awesome. Let’s start with something that we can use to demonstrate basic functionality with Vue.js, Web Awesome, and Font Awesome.
So, what’s going on here? In previous demos (like the one for More Web Awesome Dropdowns), there were three files for each pen (the markup, CSS, and JavaScript). For 2.0 pens, you can have many more (and it uses Vite). In the demo above, App.vue handles the application layout, Header.vue handles the header, and CounterButton.vue handles the button’s behavior. I have done A LOT of experimentation since the 2.0 editor dropped, and I can’t get a few things (like Vue Router) to work, but I am hoping that will come with time. Since I can add more files, I added the social meta tags and a manifest.json. It means that the result should be more shareable on its own. I also added a light-mode/dark-mode toggle, a link to view the files, and a link to the blog post.
I think that, moving forward, I will keep using the same header. I hope that you appreciate the result.

Everybody loves a token chart. I care more about the app that boots.
This piece looks at a small Quarkus Agent MCP test thread and the part I think matters most: skills pay off when they cut wrong turns, retries, and stale framework guesses.

Every deterministic workflow step does not need a planner call.
This piece shows how to keep MCP tools boring inside a LangChain4j graph: one Quarkus MCP server, one workflow app, /topology, and tests that hit real Ollama instead of stubs.

Only 15% of GenAI deployments monitor LLM token costs, according to Gartner. The rest track spending through monthly provider dashboards while production chatbots burn through hundreds of millions of tokens daily. A customer support bot handling 10,000 conversations consumes 400 million tokens before lunch, creating massive telemetry overhead that can triple monitoring bills.

A quotation from Marcus Aurelius
Finally, in every event which leads you to sorrow, remember to use this principle: that this is not a misfortune, but that to bear it like a brave man is good fortune.
[μέμνησο λοιπὸν ἐπὶ παντὸς τοῦ εἰς λύπην σε προαγομένου τούτῳ χρῆσθαι τῷ δόγματι: οὐχ ὅτι τοῦτο ἀτύχημα, ἀλλὰ τὸ φέρειν αὐτὸ γενναίως εὐτύχημα.]Marcus Aurelius (AD 121-180) Roman emperor (161-180), Stoic philosopher

It appears that Lucy has been initiated into the crime syndicate. She would have been unable to reach the goods without the help of her big sister, but judging by those tooth marks, she got tasked with cracking the safe on her first heist. Keep practicing, little one, you'll get the hang of it. 😸🏴☠️

University of Oslo: “We are in the midst of a digital backlash”. “An increasing number of individuals today recognise the drawbacks of a mobile and screen-based lifestyle, according to media researchers at the University of Oslo (UiO). This perspective marks a shift from the optimism that dominated when the internet became widely accessible at the turn of the millennium.”

The rise of candidates centering gun violence is a result of the growing prevention movement across the US, which has become something of 👉a pipeline for new candidates running for office.
#Maxwell #Frost, the nation’s first gen Z US representative, started off as a volunteer before becoming organizing director for
"March for Our Lives",
the gun-safety group founded by survivors of the 2018 mass shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas high school in #Parkland, Florida.Georgia representative #Lucy #McBath, whose son Jordan Davis was shot and killed in 2012,
and Virginia governor-elect #Abigail #Spanberger were both volunteers with the gun-safety group
"Moms Demand Action" before they ran for office.And #Cameron #Kasky, a survivor of the Parkland shooting who helped to organize the March for Our Lives student protests, recently announced his campaign to represent Manhattan, New York, in Congress.
“I see myself as a small part of a bigger movement. It’s the reason I got into politics,” Frost said.
“I was 15 when #Sandy #Hook happened and that’s what pushed me to get involved in organizing and it’s remained a big piece of my organizing.”
Today, calling out gun-rights lobbyists and groups like the National Rifle Association ( #NRA ) is common among Democrats vying for political office.
But less than 15 years ago, many moderate Democrats held A ratings from the NRA and the subject of regulating guns was a third rail that could spell an end to political aspirations,
said #Shannon #Watts, a violence-prevention activist and founder of Moms Demand Action.“It was gradual and not linear,”
she said of the change that’s happened.
“We saw that our volunteers were running for office and thought it was common sense that someone who was learning how to shape legislation would want to take the next step to make the legislation as an elected official.”Watts marks the 2012 mass shooting at Sandy Hook elementary school, in which a gunman
killed 20 children and six adults,
and the subsequent failure of Congress to pass gun-safety policies, as a watershed moment that pushed formerly gun-friendly Democrats like former West Virginia senator #JoeManchin, Minnesota governor #Tim #Walz and former Arizona representative #Ann #Kirkpatrick to risk their A rating from the NRA to call for restrictions on gun-#magazine #capacities and #assault #weapons.
⭐️Now, having an F rating from the group is a point of pride.“After Parkland, zero Democratic members of Congress had an A rating and were proud about it.
That’s a seismic shift,”
Watts added.
“I think it’s proof positive that playing the long game works.
Lucy [McBath] ran for a seat held by Republicans and she ran on the issue of gun safety.
It shattered a lot of misperceptions and fears about being gun safety-forward.The issue of gun violence has also activated newcomers to politics.
#Shaundelle #Brooks’s son, Akilah Dasilva, was one of four people killed in a mass shooting at a #Nashville Waffle House in 2018.Five years later, in 2023, another son, who survived the Waffle House shooting, was shot and injured while leaving a Nashville music venue.
After her son’s death, Brooks said she regularly would go to the statehouse to advocate for gun laws that she feels could have prevented the death of her son and so many others.
After years of her pleas falling on unreceptive ears, she decided to run for office.
“There was a time where people were scared to even mention it while they were running.
And I remember not voting for certain people because of that.
So I am grateful that people are standing up, speaking out and being brave about it,” Brooks said.
“Coming up here for seven years and having them just ignoring me,
testifying and then being told that if my son had a gun that would have saved his life,
showed me that I needed to do more than what I was doing.”The personal experiences of loss unite people like Brooks and Pearson with the scores of Americans who are part of what gun-violence victims and survivors describe as a club that no one wants to be a part of.
“When people see you’re personally impacted,
they feel that you’re more credible to talk about this kind of stuff.They know it’s not a political thing for us,” she said
