Fashion client is pushing for all of their blog text to be aligned-center. This was my response: "Center-aligned text is the web equivalent of buttoning all the buttons on a sports coat. I promise, promise, promise your articles look better with aligned-left text." #uiux #webdev #CSS

This is a cartoon about housing.

Remember: When Tylenol was poisoned *by an outsider* and killed people, the company recalled all their products & redesigned them. When Intel’s Pentium had a bug so obscure it affected 1 in _9 billion_ long division calculations, they recalled their chips. ChatGPT was made deadly *by its team*.

Just watched the new Knives Out and I think it's really important you know that the scene in the Seminary's Gym is filmed in the same place Rick Astley filmed the music video for Never Gonna Give You Up. I saw the window tracery and immediately made my friends pause the film so I could tell them.

Just wow. @pluralistic.net.web.brid.gy came out swinging in this article. He's right though and that's the coolest part.

i found this screenshot on tumblr and i can't stop staring at it. every detail is so beautiful i want to weep. why did we ever leave this behind?

showing up to meetups is just like working out. it's a muscle and you have to practice. if you feel like you suck at navigating large conferences start investing in local meetups.

It's Bandcamp Friday, Which means Artists get 100% of what they earn in sales on Bandcamp. Did you know that at $0.003 per stream, purchasing one song is worth as much as 300 streams, Today is the day to support artists and musicians, Which helps us in turn. They may support us tomorrow

I spent the afternoon drafting some skill badges that look like fruit labels for my portfolio site. They aren't quite ready to go live, but I'm stoked with how they turned out. Inspired by fruit_stickers on Insta: www.instagram.com/fruit_sticke... #webdevelopment #html #css

Boss: You f@cked up Me: I was just hallucinating Boss: Ok 👍

Quality is never an accident.

If you say: “Em dashes = AI writing” I hear: “I don’t get grammar—and assume no one else does either.”

Everyone in the past was neurotypical, which is how we got things like this single-author, eight-volume encyclopedia of ferns

The amount I have to be on LinkedIn kills me slowly. Satirical posts like this let me know I'm not the only one. 😂😭

SORRY. Sorry. Have we seen this *incredible* news video coming out of Queensland? Wait for the witness/witnesses statement

Chief among the Ring's powers is its ability to deceive.

Kids, remember if you use dev tools to throttle your internet speed, you have to reset it. SIgned, Guy who was mad at his ISP for about an hour. 🤡🤡🤡

It's insane how congestion pricing in NYC has been just about *the* most unambiguously successful new policy implemented in my lifetime and still all the dumbest people in government want to get rid of it

Et tu, Grammarly? "Basically the #CSS variable `--rem` is now 'considered harmful' because Grammarly are bad web citizens. They could generate a random variable name. They could also not inject their code into every web page ever, unless the extension is actually used."

@bell.bz Bug FYI: The checkbox on piccalil.li/mindful-desi... isn't working. I'm on Chrome on a MacBook M1.

reposting this banger, good day to you

Accessibility isn't a checklist, it's a pursuit and an expertise. WCAG and auto-checkers are the absolute bare minimum. If you actually give a fuck about the people who have to use your shit, you’re gonna need to do more than a panicked box-ticking exercise eleven seconds before merging a PR.

friends, I have a bit of a scheduling emergency & I need your help: we’re filming Web Dev Challenge on Mar 25 in Salt Lake City & had a team drop out — need to book a new team FAST I need: - 2 devs (combined skills covering full stack dev/UX) - comfortable on camera - available Mar 23–26 in SLC

"We won’t even know about the new deaths, because all the data collection was supported by U.S.A.I.D." It will be years before we understand the size of this crisis--and we may only understand it when highly resistant forms of TB come home to roost in rich countries.

My pal @dansinker.com crafts a lot of simple words into important messages like the punk that he is. Print now available. https://www.starshaped.com/small-prints/writeitdown #letterpress #print

Tuberculosis, the deadliest infectious disease on the planet, kills more than 1.25M people a year. New infections are expected to surge by 30% as a result of closing USAID, a memo says. The increase will inevitably lead to cases in the U.S.

Ranty grumble from me: remysharp.com/2025/03/08/d...

Recently, the promised path to efficiency has been AI, specifically LLMs. I recently used Claude to to help with two big tasks for a client. Here's my reflection on that experience. The TLDR is that it went 1-2 on being helpful, and 0-2 on leaving me satisfied. www.linkedin.com/pulse/mainta...

If you are trying to find a way to build community, having people meet for an informal lunch or happy hour may be the lowest barrier to entry. I'll be hosting another Denver meetup next month!

oh, you’re a leftist? do you mean inline-start-ist? #css #html

"Trump’s 2nd presidential term has arrived amidst a new golden age for internet grifters, propagandists, and bad-faith hucksters of all stripes. ... constantly enticing us to engage with its impenetrable nonsense." www.404media.co/you-cant-pos...

BREAKING: Federal judge temporarily blocks Trump administration from placing 2,000+ USAID workers on leave as litigation continues.

Denver Dads in Tech inaugural lunch was a success! 🎉 Guys from Longmont to Castle Rock showed up. Hop in the discord or guild to get on the list for future meetups.

My coworking space has Remember the Titans playing in the theater this morning. You already know this is where I'm working from today.

This UI animation from @guild.host was a delightful find this morning. I know it's not the most original thing, but so many sites just breeze past the fun stuff.

For more of Oracle's comedy routine about its JavaScript trademark:

I'm watching a video of a guy integrating a CMS into Astro and he is absolutely RIPPING on his vape anytime he has to wait for something to load. 💨💨💨

We've released patches for a critical security vulnerability. We strongly encourage projects to upgrade to versions 1.6.1, 2.1.9, or 3.0.5 as soon as possible.

USAID matters. I've often disagreed with their strategy and choices, but their work saves more lives than any philanthropy can. It's a rounding error in the federal budget, and one of the best things we do as a country. To see it destroyed overnight by one unelected man is an unmitigated horror.

We have reached new levels of madness when an unelected, non senate-confirmed private citizen is overseeing an effort to overhaul or possibly end a congresionally mandated arm of our government. This is real trouble for the separation of powers, and with it, our basic democratic institutions.

If you wanted to decrease the cost of homes, one thing you wouldn’t do is put a flat tariff on your main source of timber.

hey question, is this bad?
