Incredible Facebook slop ad I just got

Saw a woman at the park give a rolled-up ten to a toddler to carry to another woman, then she said with increasing urgency, "Give it to your mama! Give it to your mama!" as the baby calmly ate the money.

There's the shovelware @theverge.com So much for this take: mikelovesrobots.substack.com/p/wheres-the...

10/10 no notes

Question: where are the @atproto.com people hanging out on the internet? I'm working through some ideas for contribution and would love some feedback. 🙏

Ooooooo this looks fun! Brilliant use of custom elements.

We all have days like this

Is the @codepen.io 2.0 editor not loading for anyone else? It seems to bork for me on Chromium browsers. Works OK in Safari though 🤷‍♂️

Sir, a second bird is at the feeder

2026 basically

Element-Scoped View Transitions are gonna be **SO GOOD** There’s still some details to settle, but the main thing is there: run VTs on a subtree of the DOM, allowing parallel VTs. And with `view-transition-scope` you can limit the scope of `view-transition-name` values, allowing VTs to be nested.

love a bit of continvouclous morging

Ever tried boiled pasta? Not as crunchy but still good

The View Transition API continues to be very good

This was so much fun to be a part of, and it’s finally live 🔥 (Deleted my original post because I thought this was only for code.tv subscribers, but seems like anyone can watch now!)

I wanna be less of a hater, so here are some of my favourite things on the internet at the moment (most of these I've learned through @sfpc-study.bsky.social or various are.na channels). Flight Simulator by Laurel Schwulst is an “ode to airplane mode”: laurelschwulst.com/e/flight-sim...

Visiting friends in New York

I've been leaning hard into the View Transitions API at work. This isn't, like, perfect, but I'm pretty impressed by what you can pull off with it.

Damn this HorizontalScrollView and I have a lot in common

The visuals at Floating Points show in Brooklyn last night were painted live and projected onto the wall behind him. This is a terrible picture but it was cool as hell.

this site has two different styles of loading spinner and it’s driving me crazy

'lil WAAPI-powered infinite card flip animation codepen.io/andystewartd...

What should I do in Mexico City?

I've always been annoyed that, with the Web Animations API, there's no built-in way to know when an infinitely looping animation is finishing/starting an iteration. Turns out it's pretty easy to fake it using the `finished` promise that you get when you play an animation. codepen.io/andystewartd...

This is first time that I’ve written a shader and know, at a line-by-line basis, what the hell is happening. It's not even particularly complex, as shaders go, but it feels like progress.

I started this on a plane 6 months ago, forgot about it, and finished it on a plane last week. There's a lot more that I could do with it, and I may bang around on it occasionally going forward. I've found it useful on some recent projects, though, and wanted to publish it. www.colorpalett.es

I made a micro-library over the past few years for drag and drop, inspired by the instagram story editor. It's touch friendly and has accurate hit-boxes for transparent images. Try the demo here: maxbittker.github.io/draggablejs/

Every time some big news event happens, someone chimes in about how they’ve noticed that said event is being used by others to confirm their priors. At some point, does that become its own form of confirmation bias? It’s a bias ouroboros.

So leet. Much heat. @jason.energy

Bought a little macro pad to use as a controller for my coding experiments. It actually is meaningfully more fun than just using my keyboard 😅

New Year’s Rave

Finally getting around to writing a post about one of my favorite details from the eBay Playbook homepage. Anything you're curious about?

Happy Holidays!

Safari: Intent to Ship in v18.2

Feels weird to say this isn't baseline because it’s not in iOS Safari. Of course it’s not!
