Just discovered @webdesignmuseum.org and it is glorious!

My first real-world use of CSS Container Queries! Almost forgot about them, but this was a very nice small use case. Taking icons normally in four columns, dropping to two columns when the card is small. #CSS #GunthersLibrary

Been getting a lot done on my upcoming #StardewValley app. Though I'm starting to hit a lot of details that I can't automatically parse from the game code, so lots of copy pasting is now involved. I do believe this is shaping up to be the most complete stardew guide app! #GunthersLibrary

Fantastic thread about why Frontend devs should be included at the beginning of a project. Fought for this long and hard at one job but ended up leaving as they refused to do this. It is that important.

Wish I could Google my memories to remember where I left something.

This week has been all over the place. On one hand, we are prepping for a new Foster Care kiddo to stay with us. On the other, one of our cats went missing just before New Year's and we have yet to find her...

Trying to get ChatGPT to write out several individual sentences based on a theme and a specific voice. The longer I go the more generic they get. What's the trick to keep it on track?

need product differentiation? overhire a #CSS front-end team and ask them to: - polish whatever - add delight wherever and watch as your product becomes smooth and buttery while everyone else's gather dust and crust UI is a huge space offering differentiation via quality

πŸ”₯ One of my favourite hidden macOS features is the scroll hotkey gesture. By holding ⌘ (Command) and scrolling down, we zoom WAY IN on the cursor’s location. I learned this trick for highlighting stuff in video tutorials, but it comes in handy a lot in my day-to-day life!

So many new CSS features this year! Need to start memorizing a bunch of new syntax.

But.. but.. it's my "hobby"! What do you mean it's the same thing I do at work?

Got my wife a weighted blanket for Christmas. Now she is back in bed. Should have given it on Christmas Eve.

I don't like the Bluesky dot on the up arrow telling me there are new posts to view. Notification dots give me anxiety.

Am I doing something wrong or does VSCode still struggle with syntax highlighting for nested CSS?

Working on something and need a quick color value and you're tired of using the same old ones like `red` or `blue`? Shout out to @miriam.codes for sharing enes.in/sorted-colors/ which has a color slider that gives you the named CSS color values for whatever color you're after.

Always satisfying when I think a coding problem is going to be very complex but ends up only being a few lines of code.

Getting lost in nested for loops and forEach and while loops and .every() and .find()... Where did I put that map()? Haven't I already returned from here? I should take a break.

Been spending the last few days adding villager schedules to my Stardew Valley app. Who knew they were so complicated! #guntherslibrary #stardewvalley #app
