Please stop setting `width: 100vw` on the `body`. It's unnecessary. By default, the `body` stretches horizontally as much as necessary. It's problematic. Setting `width: 100vw` on it can cause overflow even if you remove the default `margin`... because the page may have a scrollbar. #CSS

Recreated the Apple Photos UI with React Aria in just ~200 lines! Complete with virtualized scrolling, view transitions, adjustable waterfall layout, folder tree, search, multi-selection, and accessible drag and drop. Just one of the demos I'm planning for the new docs. 🙂

Liquid Glass, but in #CSS: "I have a lot of thoughts on this new language, but my immediate thought while I was watching the presentation was "I wonder if CSS can do that". It turns out, yes, with great effort, it can." atlaspuplabs.com/blog/liquid-...

I turn 13 on @codepen.io in June, so here are my 13 most hearted demos: 1️⃣ 1092 ♥️ #CSS infinite #scroll gallery codepen.io/thebabydino/... my only one to ever get to 1K ♥️ without being in most hearted of the year mostly CSS scroll-driven animations + tiniest bit of JS (~200 bytes for infinity part)

Latest @latent.space ep rocked - positioning reasoning models - multi-agent self-play - anecdotally confirmed my hunch that 4.1 is the 🐐 podcasts.apple.com/podcast/id16... "So, self-play outside of these two player, zero-sum games becomes like a much more difficult, nuanced question."

I've become a big fan of Biome- it really feels like the project is living up to the task of "one config to rule them all" Happy to see v2!!

The new SF Symbols app now has an animation editor 🤯 The team behind SF Symbols is killing it every year, they deserve a lot of credit 🙌 #macOSTahoe

hi @yusukebe.bsky.social! for new projects using Hono + Zod + OpenAPI, would you recommend `zod-openapi` or `chanfana`? they seem to fill similar purpose with slight syntax differences, so i was curious if either is "preferred" refs: - hono.dev/examples/zod... - github.com/cloudflare/c...

I ported ukiyo-e.org over to @cloudflare.social Workers + R1 (image hosting, about 1TB) + D2 (for DB and search) recently and I'm super happy with it, it's a great experience! Have it using React Router v7 + React 19, about 11 mil dynamic requests/month, served in under 35ms! Total cost ~$25/month.

Oracle justified its JavaScript trademark by claiming Node.js — now it wants that ignored #FreeJavaScript deno.com/blog/deno-v-...

The entire archive of all CDC datasets uploaded before January 28th, 2025 has been backed up on Internet Archive. Incredible work everyone. Science will never be silenced!

WarpStream posts never fail to impress. Such clear writing. The transaction implementation described here is excellent.

@brookslybrand.bsky.social hey- you had posted a while ago about React Router v7 docs.... This graphic was IMO the clearest part of the old docs, and all descriptions of modular design and single responsibility route modules that map data dependencies to slices of UI are missing from the new docs.

#FreeJavaScript update: Oracle has informed us they won’t voluntarily withdraw their trademark on "JavaScript". Next: they’ll file their Answer and we’ll start discovery to show how "JavaScript" is widely recognized as a generic term and not controlled by Oracle.

a spicy take, but I think python-based ai agents are a dead end. it's going to be typescript.

It's done. Now it’s your turn, Oracle. We’ve submitted a formal petition to cancel the JavaScript trademark: it is generic, Oracle has abandoned it, and Oracle committed fraud on the USPTO during the last trademark renewal. It's time to #FreeJavaScript. deno.com/blog/deno-v-...
