Executives in charge of selling GPU time are not reliable sources of information on whose jobs AI will eventually replace. It’s an ad.

Created a new recommendation to selectively enable Shadow DOM encapsulation features as mode flags. Builds on the idea of `open-styleable`, but in a way that I hope is more flexible. Enables "Light DOM with slots." Would love your thoughts. github.com/WICG/webcomp...

Note to self: don’t post something to social media you want a bunch of people to see right before a major sporting event.

Ever wish Lit had a function API for creating custom elements instead of using classes? Maybe give `funlit` a chance and tell me what you think. npmjs.com/package/funlit

For the record, the OpenAI board said, “We’re worried he’s leading this to a place that’s bad for humanity,” and a bunch of billionaires said, “That’s fine.” Just so we’re clear who the heroes and villains are here.

📣 Announcement! Google is funding me to design a new #StateOfHTML survey, to complement the well-established #StateofJS & #StateofCSS surveys. As a strong believer in transparency and co-design, I’m opening up the design process to community input: https://lea.verou.me/blog/2023/design-

Newly diagnosed with ADHD. It explains a lot. Including kind of a big screw up yesterday. Doc prescribed meds, but there’s a shortage and it’s backordered. How do you all navigate this? Especially as a spouse and parent?

What if you could use Lit without having to write JS Classes or use the Shadow DOM? Would you give Web Components a chance? @lit.dev @codepen.io https://codepen.io/shannonmoeller/pen/RwqVQXm?editors=1010

I get unreasonably irritated when someone says “JavaScript!!” when the source is really TypeScript or “just CSS!!” when the source is really Sass.

el.className and el.htmlFor have weird, incorrect, inconsistent names because old JavaScript didn't allow reserved words to be property names. That changed over a decade ago, so should we add el.class and el.for? https://github.com/whatwg/html/issues/9379

I think I just coined a term: Copilot Hypnosis. Where the first few suggestions by GitHub Copilot are reasonable, then you keep hitting Tab while thinking less and less, until you are not thinking at all, mesmerized by the plausible (but incorrect) code unfolding in front of you.

Waiting for the bubble of collective insanity around Tailwind to burst like the one around CSS-in-JS has. Have you tried actual CSS lately? It’s pretty great.

Say the compliment out loud. I have some coworkers I really dig working with. I think that every time we do projects. So SAY it. “I really enjoy working with you! We always get it done and it’s always super collaborative!” Don’t just THINK the compliment. Say it. Then tell their boss.

Domain verification is such a simple feature, it’s shocking that as far into this social media world that we are we still don’t have this feature mainstream. Nicely done blue sky.

It feels like it was a mistake to have `contain: paint` create a stacking context for `position: fixed`. Ideally the number boxes would have a wipe effect on desktop the same as the fixed background images. https://codepen.io/shannonmoeller/pen/VwEaeYy
