This is a good principle for design in general: When users tell you there's a problem, they are usually right. When users tell you how to fix it, they are usually wrong. (bonus: if you replace "user" with "stakeholder" this still applies)

Recently I've seen recurring mentions of "IBM research" that shows "fixing accessibility bugs post-launch is 25x to 100x more expensive" That's *absolutely fantastic* marketing material, so I wanted to get in on that. First, I decided to look for the actual research. You know where this is going.

This got me riled up enough to make a video about why it might feel like CSS is now doing things that JS should be doing, but really, these modern features are allowing us to use CSS for what it should be used for, instead of hacking solutions with JS. www.youtube.com/watch?v=GTCJ...

No splitting text into letters, no text duplication. This is a single element and #SVG #filter magic.

Honestly this comment gives the whole game away. It was never about what CSS is; it was about creating and enforcing programmer classism. "CSS isn't a programming language" seamlessly morphs into a new argument because it was only ever a dog whistle wrapper to launder the real argument in anyway.

Most comments are just impressed, but there was a small wave of people complaining about how CSS shouldn't be able to do this, and that it should be for *styling* only (emphasis theirs). The thing is... all this simply opens the doors to styling in more robust ways. youtu.be/Y-3tPDZCk2o

I imagine the hardest part of this project was having to kill God so that you'd be unhampered by divine intervention stopping you from bringing this affront to the natural order to fruition.

i built an entire x86 CPU emulator in CSS (no javascript) you can write programs in C, compile them to x86 machine code with GCC, and run them inside CSS lyra.horse/x86css/

We are in the rare and unique position where indie animation can be unique creative visions unfettered by corporate interference or IP shit Why would you, as the fan, demand that the vision of the creator, who you claim to love, bend to your demands Kill your inner exec

dog follows pointer + avoids collisions with no dependencies - builds the page as a graph, more subdivisions towards the text for perf - dijkstra shortest path

It’s a similar problem at a different level of abstraction. Tossing words at a model and hoping to see something good is a fool’s errand. Giving it some detail and having it build something that would have taken you weeks in a couple of afternoons is where it feels amazing to me.

Let me also say - I’m using AI a LOT at work and at home, and it has absolutely made work so much easier! But AI is more of my lil assistant that takes on the tasks I DON’T enjoy so that I have more time to do the things I DO enjoy, like writing good code. 😊

that's not to contradict what you said, just sharing that i've found some lost state of flow in those pockets, but they're not on the default path of using these tools

The second edition of Designing Data-Intensive Applications, by myself and @chris.blue, is finished and sent off to the printers! Ebooks should be available in the next week, and print books in 3–4 weeks. Sigh of relief. 😅 (BTW, this is a good opportunity to support your favourite local bookshop!)

I miss the music app that was centered on _my music_ Playlists, Artists, Albums, Songs, these were the primary axis of navigation — the Nouns of the system. Now I get Discover, Radio, New, all _their stuff_ while my stuff is tucked away under “Library”

It has taken 10 years of being on the @heypresents.com stage as MC to secure a slot to actually give a talk. So, you know... I better not screw it up. Tickets for this final edition are going. Get yours.
