unsigned integers were a mistake

And here's that Codepen refactored as promised using sibling-index()

🥳 We added new attributes to HTML to enhance <input type=color>: webkit.org/blog/16900/p...

Lots of folks fell for the "DOM is slow" marketing of certain frameworks, but DOM isn't slow. *Uncontrolled style read-back* is. But what if that wasn't a thing? Looking for feedback on a new proposal to control layout thrashing here: github.com/MicrosoftEdge/MS…

There's a first time for everything, I successfully crimped my own ethernet cables today. It was easier than expected in the end...

If you write code to make websites (HTML, CSS, JS, Web API, Media) and you get frustrated trying to wrangle your code to work in Safari, which bugs are blocking you? Which existing features would you most like to see improved? If you got a chance to order priorities which effort would you put first?

You absolutely know that tons of people in the administration are gaming this crap to get rich on insider trading. I wouldn't be surprised if they even mention it as a perk in the job interviews.

Your next game obsession is now at @theatlantic.com. Start playing today: https://theatln.tc/Y262sZUp

This is high art

✍️ New Article: First Look at The Modern attr() I explored the new attr() capabilities and shared my thoughts about it. Happy reading! ishadeed.com/article/mode...

Time to kick the tires on the #CSS @mixin prototype in Canary ⤷ nerdy.dev/css-mixins-r...

#tinyCSStip 🚫 DON'T use layered text-shadows for text outlines just because text-stroke is broken (bsky.app/profile/anat...), they are going to produce ugly corners, thickened roundings and angled lines. ✅ DO: use `paint-order: stroke fill` instead! #CSS #typography

The most draft spec there ever was.

The Trump/Vance/Musk foreign policy agenda is vile and turncoat; there's no daylight between them and what a Manchurian Candidate under Russia's thumb would try to accomplish: www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

Two things that are true at the same time: 1. Due to the political uncertainty brought on by the Trump admin, there is a need to discuss options for the worst case scenarios. 2. NATO isn't dead yet. Therefore we must remain committed to NATO, because it's the best instrument for planning and C2.

Where are the investigative stories about Trump's stock market manipulation? It's hard to imagine he isn't handing out rewards in the form of information to loyalists who can then short the market at the right time.

Well Europe, time to take a deep breath, hitch up your pants, roll up your sleeves, and do everything you can to help Ukraine. No one else will. Its not only their freedom on the line--its yours too.

“Trump is keenly alert to his legal danger, deeply committed to keeping power by any means necessary,” writes David Frum. “He also seems to be sleep-walking toward a stinging political loss that will expose him to all kinds of personal risks”:

We are living in dangerous times. Europe‘s security is threatened in a very real way. Today I present ReArm Europe. A plan for a safer and more resilient Europe ↓ europa.eu/!MFPVMC

HTML event handlers are those onxxx attributes and properties many of us are used to, but do you know how they actually work? If you're writing custom elements and would like them to have such event handlers, what would you have to do? #webdev #html #javascript #webcomponents

Not really seeing how the cited piece advances personal liberties or free markets.

If you also struggle with #CSS units and what they mean, I just learned from a petrol pump about vmin.

What an unbelievable spectacle of thuggery. This is deeply embarrassing for America—249 years of leadership and goodwill, all thrown away.

"Musk’s activism does seem to be turning off the affluent or middle-income progressive crowd that was traditionally Tesla’s bread and butter." This is obvious, and is true for me, I just hope it's at a scale that matters... Also considering those bumper stickers of disgust.

A colleague shared this with me yesterday. The best website I've visited? Don't miss the playground!

Marketing done right, haha: the first ever typeface fully designed with the other hand — because our designer's dominant hand was covered in Cheetos. The YouTube video is a masterpiece of parody: www.youtube.com/watch?v=6olc...

It looks like this wish might finally come true! I just got a notification about some activity on Bugzilla regarding container style queries! bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi...
