If you have existential feelings about the state of your software stack, just remember that on the web it’s completely undefined which element a mouse click returns.

Are you excited about CSS Grid Lanes?
It can be tricky to fully understand how content order works in this layout. Safari Technology Preview 235 just landed a new Order Number tool in our Grid Inspector to quickly see what’s up. Especially helpful with `flow-tolerance`.

CSS `random()`, now in Safari 26.2.
Play around with it while waiting for other browsers to ship.

Wasn't expecting how much fun random() is, it really opens up a ton of pure CSS creative possibilities.
Now you need custom functions, which combined with random() will enable all sorts of distributions, Perlin noise and more 😇

This feels like a different life, but my most starred project on Github is something completely unrelated to the web.
It is a port of a popular inverse kinematics solver library to the ROS2 API.

The right to not be distracted and manipulated, particularly in a personalized way, is something we don’t (but should) start thinking about as a society.
