"I'll wait until it comes out on video to watch it." And then I proceed to never watch it when it comes out on video.

With the new design, I'm going through to add some slash pages. Newly added: My AI Statement snook.ca/ai

I decided to change the fonts. I'm happier with the results. snook.ca/everything/f...

Everything and Nothing: The End and The Beginning I've officially redesigned my blog. snook.ca/everything/t...

I've been enjoying playing with scroll-based animations but implementations are finicky across browsers and I don't love that Firefox still has it behind a flag. It would be nice to be able to style element X that isn't a child of view-timeline.

Great post on AI but I'd also like to mention that I like the hover transition on the font-weight. ky.fyi/posts/ai-bur...

I am watching Moby and Jacob Lusk on repeat. Damn, that’s some good stuff.

When I cancelled my Adobe subscription, they said that I'd still have access to Adobe Fonts but it's not clear which fonts are only available via a subscription. (It says only 5500 of the 30k fonts would be available.)

Sending money to the IRS via online payment and really hoping this goes through smoothly. Nothing feels particularly clear.

What're people using for a NAS these days? I'm thinking of going local media instead of relying on the cloud so much.

The problem with social media algorithms and April Fools jokes is that the jokes appear long after the day is over.

OH: You went from CI/CD to YO/LO.

I appreciate that Sara tracked down this post as it helps provide some context on what's really interesting about this library. I can see the scenarios where it can be helpful—like infinite lists but ugh, I dislike infinite lists, too.

Congrats, I guess, on building a layout engine that is demonstrably worse, feature-wise, than what we already have to solve some edge cases you've run into. You sure showed those CSS zealots a thing or two.

Managed to sleep in until 9:30am and was pleasantly surprised until I realized the clocks jumped ahead. I guess I didn't sleep in as much as I thought.

I'm down to owning just 4 domains and I'm tempted to drop it down to just one.

Renewing a .ms domain went from $45/yr to $80/yr. That's quite the jump in one year.

Enjoying some Octomore 10.1 on this fine afternoon, keeping me warm inside while it's cold outside.

I am today years old when I realized they sing "He just smiled and gave me a Vegemite sandwich" and not "He just smiled and gave me a bite of his sandwich".

I think I have become one of those people. I saw a comment from this person who complained they weren't able to get a straw or vanilla syrup with their cold brew and I thought "maybe you should go to Starbucks if that's what you want".

Am I a speedskater? No. Do I even own skates currently? Also no. Do I want a helmet like the Olympic speedskaters? Yes.

Appliance stores should let you demo the appliances before purchase. Like, let me bring over a load of laundry and see how well the washer and dryer actually works.

Would you rather be at the top of a trapezoid or the bottom of a triangle?

Me: "Even a broken clock is right twice a day." Kids these days: "What are you talking about? Is your phone broken?! How can you even tell the time without your phone?"

Always a joy. "When you eat beaver, you understand that it's beaver." www.youtube.com/watch?v=bsa7...

Hey Apple, how about instead of handing awards to numbnuts, you figure out how to bring an app to the forefront when I Cmd-Tab to it?

Didn’t expect to hear news of Catherine O’Hara dying. abcnews.go.com/GMA/Culture/...

Good stuff. Kinda makes me miss working on design systems. daverupert.com/2026/01/algo...

Maybe black text on black background in a dimly lit elevator isn’t the best idea.

jQuery 4 is released! blog.jquery.com/2026/01/17/j...

jQuery is 20 years old. That, Prototype, and Scriptaculous were probably my favourite JS tools to play with.

Ottawa is getting dumped on with 35cm of snow expected. I don’t miss shovelling. I didn’t mind shovelling. Maybe even enjoyed it. But I don’t miss it.

I don't want a “to do” list; I want a “to enjoy” list.

One thing I like about autumn: it's nice for driving around in. Sunroof open, windows down, cruising.

I used to have an app that auto-created contacts from IM, Email, and Social Media and hooboy that was a mistake. So many contacts of people I emailed 15-20 years ago. Cleaning up, I've gone from over 1000 down to 700 and I've only gone through half my contacts.

"theme-color" no longer works on OS26. It seems to style the address bar and tabs based on web site background color. www.reddit.com/r/webdev/com...

One of these is a heading. One is a list item. And one is actionable. I feel like there should be more affordability to make this clear.

I’m not minding iOS26 so far, although there’s some UI changes that I’ll need to get used to that I’ve stumbled on. Slowly updating all my devices to ‘26.

Go Irish! (My first ever tailgate experience)

Thankfully, had the smoothest border crossing ever. Took 10 seconds and I was on my way!

Took in two coffee shops today in Yorkville: Goldstruck (meh) and Coffee Lunar (okay).

"Every mature application contains within it some UI which is a living fossil of its past." When I was at Shopify and we were updating the UI, I tracked down every piece of interface to make sure nothing fell through the cracks. x.com/rauchg/statu...

Doing some digital gardening today. In particular, pruning accounts and passwords. Closing accounts where I can, resetting passwords where I should.

Intentional curation is important. Even with algorithms, I try to push the system towards providing higher quality content. notetoself.studio/post/inputs-...

Watching the Apple event, which I haven’t done in a long time. Was delighted by the Loaded Honey track early up.

Since Mr Black coffee liqueur isn’t available here in Ontario, I have 4 different bottles of coffee liqueurs as I tried to find something that hit the right spot. Now it’s taking forever to go through them all. Lots of espresso martinis and White Russians in my future. (Made with Ukrainian vodka)
