A *fantastic* article all about CSS containment: csswizardry.com/2026/04/what..., containing practical use cases, gotchas, performance and debugging tips. A goldmine of a resource from none other than the #CSS Wizard himself: @csswizardry.com

Watching the tech industry unleash unpredictable software into production in the name of AI adoption, then spend twice as much time and money trying to limit the blast radius, proves humans should be investing in our own intelligence before allowing the machines to mimic us.

HTML might be getting a new type of tag, which… hasn't happened this millennium. Here's the new syntax, and how it works:

It’s called ‘vs code’ because the code is an enemy you are fighting

Being a parent is really just the best gift life has given me. It’s so wonderful but also scary to love someone this much. I melt every time he smiles

This is precisely why they *always* attack education. US history is the most gruesome horror story every created.

One of the most consistently neglected parts of today’s user experiences is our handling of errors. We’re so busy designing the happy paths through our products that we often forget to give the same care and attention to the times when things will go wrong piccalil.li/blog/how-to-...

Quick #CSS #3D carousel on @codepen.io: codepen.io/thebabydino/... Auto-rotates on load, but it can also be paused and navigated through via the buttons. Minimal JS. All 3D is CSS. Heavily commented.

Friendly reminder that I shared *an extensive* guide to ARIA live regions so you can learn more about: - what they are - what to use them for - how to use them - what *not* to use them for (!important) Part 1: www.sarasoueidan.com/blog/accessi... Part 2: www.sarasoueidan.com/blog/accessi... #a11y

I kind of love that this doesn't affect me

I've been saying I want this for so long :D . lbvs . I do a lot of functional fitness making myself useful around the house but doing some equivalents of what an exercise at the gym would do

First day of work for the year! I realize I don't get on platforms like Bluesky/Twitter when I'm off work. I think I've sorta associated them with work even though I'm not always writing about work or consuming work-related content.

The BlueSky/Twitter split feels like I'm living in a multiverse of madness. I keep wondering, will there ever be a sacred timeline (app) that everyone is on again? Is it just going to be this divided forever? Like we accept that we'll miss out on some good accounts over there

CSS Wrapped is back! Catch up on everything you might have missed that landed in 2024 🥳 Another big year for CSS and HTML 😎 chrome.dev/css-wrapped-2024

This is pure supervillain behavior

I remember when you could just buy a computer program like Microsoft Word or Photoshop and just have it on your computer forever without having to pay monthly or yearly. What a time that was

I love my life a lot more now than I used to a couple years back when I really needed escapism. However, I could still use some immersion in fantasy and maybe an occasional escape of the realities of my laborious existence caused by the pursuit of financial freedom

I loved Tems’ response to someone who asked her why Afrobeats don’t touch much of the political situations in Africa. The genre is about escapism. Even when listening to other genres, I really love getting lost in the fantasy of the melody

I know some songs just hate to see me open Spotify. I play the heck out of them

Last night I assembled 2 separate pieces of furniture. For the first I was like what kind of trash is this with misaligned assembly holes. I packed it up and took to UPS for return even though they’d closed. Next was such fine piece with good assembly instructions it made me crush on wood

Fun fact: If someone quotes a post of yours in a way that is unwelcome (as is commonplace on Twitter/X) there is a tool to combat the unwanted attention. Simply click the three dot menu on the quote post & click "Detach quote". This removes your post from their quote post. Useful to know, do share!

React v19 is now stable! react.dev/blog/2024/12...

Hey everyone! React v19 has been released! react.dev/blog/2024/12...

Now we need one for Chromium browsers

Y’all let’s talk about physician catfishing. Why do these doctors have pictures of themselves from 20 years ago? I’ll get a new physician and the face I get digitally vs IRL are many years apart

htmlforpeople.com is #BuiltWithEleventy by @blakewatson.com 🏆

The only work I plan to do on Christmas week this year is to clean up my ~/Downloads folder

Woo! I got to play a video game today. I’ve been so consumed by adult life that I’ve not touched my controller in 2 months. That’s before yesterday when I thought I’d sneak in a game between my work day and it ended up just updating so I went back to getting work done

I feel so proud of the lists I've created and pinned to my home page. I could really just see a feed of people/things I want at anytime based on these lists. Starter-packs are cool but I've found lists to be even much better for me. I have one list called IRL friends for just people close to me IRL

GitHub is giving me a sign to take a break

GitHub seems less than functional, but githubstatus is all green 😵‍💫

Authors love libraries. Please use them. Please support them. Libraries are amazing. 📚

American culture applauds this, but I find it sad and pointless There is no virtue in living a smaller life than you have to

Robocop is a movie about a guy who gets killed on the job and they still made him go back to work

Testing buffer for the first time

Just hooked up my bed’s Bluetooth speaker to the Tv and that’s crazy to say but laying in bed with the sound coming right out of it is peak home convenience. I’ve been on a journey to make my home my favorite place to be. I go places to have experiences but always look forward to being back home

We could go on about how we welcome publishers, we don't demote links, we encourage independent developers to build apps and extensions on top of Bluesky's network.... but instead, we'll show you. All thanks to the incredible community here! 🦋

Oh no! This was almost me with the dressing but it survived

For post-thanksgiving I replaced the toilet in my in-law’s guest bathroom. Saved a water damage caused by bad toilet ring from getting any worse. I thought I’d be laying down today but I’m glad to fix a problem instead

this is my request @bsky.app
