I’m kept waiting for Lockjaw to be like:

Are my methods… unsound?

lol at “brain coding”, the new term we need for the forever established thing we already do.

Like “multi-page website”.

(They knew it was tongue in cheek but I can see it catching on)

Interesting.

I actually used arc at first but I wasn’t quite grokking the “of” syntax or how to get it to arc “the other way” so I aborted and found curve easier to use even if slightly more numbers involved

Was surprised to see that, even though CSS Grid isn't a new feature, it's still high on the list of things devs find confusing, so wrote a post about it.

I focus on a new mental model I think is helpful. Let me know what you think!

📺 Wondla — 10/10 kids show. I was way into it. Post-apoc situation with underground bunkers (apparently Apple loves that theme) where when the protagonist girl busts out of it, the world is quite different. The premise and payoff in Season 1 was better than the commentary vibe of Season…

📺 Wondla — 10/10 kids show. I was way into it. Post-apoc situation with underground bunkers (apparently Apple loves that theme) where when the protagonist girl busts out of it, the world is quite different. The premise and payoff in Season 1 was better than the commentary vibe of Season 2, but I liked it all. Apparently there is one more season coming…

Each toy also comes with a small plastic bag of white powder. Just sniff it in kids! It’s fun!

I feel like how we feel about smoking on airplanes is how the next generation will feel about us just mainlining social media.

I hemmed-and-hawed about this one on one of the streams. It was close but ultimately I decided that I've never personally cared or been bitten by the font size increase on landscape so left it off.

Yup I blogged it!

Calling it a "starter" instead of a "reset" as it's not massively about stripping away styles.

I quite like it and I'm extra interested in thoughts/critique.

Chef's kiss stuff here from Colin Cornaby: Today’s microwave can cook a frozen burrito. Tomorrow’s microwave will be able to cook an entire Thanksgiving Dinner. [...] We all need to transition to this way of cooking, because clearly this is where the future is going. I expect in a few short years kitchens will be much smaller. Gone will be stoves and ovens and flat tops.

Flies

Listen, I had some flies in the house. I had a party, it was nice having the doors open, some flies got in, and they apparently set up shop. You can't just wait them out. They live like a month. Too long. Not to mention I gotta imagine they were having fly sex in their sweet new pad and…

Too long. Not to mention I gotta imagine they were having fly sex in their sweet new pad and kicking out more flies.
