I think these rectangular progress indicators look really fancy.

Excellent read about vibe coding and how it affects your “relationship” with a codebase.

Pushed a small Pintura "fix" to workaround zoomed iOS viewports.

The modal would scale with the viewport, causing the close button to be positioned of screen.

Using the `visualViewport` API it's now positioned in the top left corner of the zoomed viewport making it possible to close the modal.

One of the best things I ever found out about the lunar missions is the fact that we have a transcript from Apollo 10 where the astronauts argue about who made the loose turds floating around the command module.

Still sketching. 💪

Spotted a cute tiny restaurant in Amsterdam. I also bought more fineliners and the set included a brush pen which turns out to be great really high contrast sketches and value studies.

The perks of being a solo dev 👉 spend 2 days working on a rectangular progress indicator.

Why 2 days? Because spinning a rectangle is a bit tricky.

With a circle you can just spin the entire thing. With a rectangle not so much. So now I'm spinning a rectangle behind an SVG mask.

This online SVG path editor by Yann Armelin is so handy for cleaning up and/or adjusting SVG paths.

I'm currently using it to make some small tweaks to FilePond icons, just paste in the value of the "d" attribute and start editing away.

Respect user preferences.

Years ago I published conditionerjs.com to help you conditionally load JavaScript modules based on the current user context and preferences.

Great DX if you’re into sprinkling a little bit of JS on top of your pages.

I'm in the market for a new sit-stand desk.

My Fully desk is too wide and when typing the screen shakes :/ I'm hoping a smaller more sturdy desk will help, any recommendations?

if only my screen was this stable 👇

I can't believe it took met 10 years to realize you can stack multiple of the same transform functions.

The original Unreal OST is just still so good, I still vividly remember crawling out of the prison ship and the music kicking in, 10/10 👌
