I can't wait for full remote opportunities to be the norm and more accepted.

It's interesting why people are more productive when working that Friday. Could it be the happiness of sleeping in for an extra 30mins that morning.

And what do you think of early starts? Where a developer gets in an hour or two early and leaves early that day.

The problem is that I see that most managers don't want to go full remote.

They still want face to face meetings at least once in a while.

They care about output more than anything, and they know that finding a better job is going to be hard no matter how good you are.

I'm fine with early starts. Everybody should just work the way they want if it's up to me.

That's true. A lot of managers do. Like your article about the HTML dialog tag. Just what I was looking for for an e-commerce shopping cart message. what is not supported in ie so do you think I should just stick with a standard alert fall back?

I think you can check if the showModal method is a function.

If it is, then you can display the dialog element. Otherwise, you display an alert.
