For the second time, Firefox made a page that lets you rank the Interop 2027 features that you care about. Interop is an effort by multiple companies involved in shaping the web to make the platform more interoperable. This is your very low-effort option to contribute to the future of the platform we love, so please...
Most of this month we spent at the Polish seaside, with family and friends, chilling at the Baltic Sea, playing cards, grilling fresh fish and enjoying a poor internet connection. The rest of the month I spent trying to understand the madness that happened at work during my absence. But I managed to read some of the...
Apparently while having a shower people have the best ideas. Drawing in the wet room is a little bit hard though. The other place where great ideas occur to my brain and where the pencil is perfectly allowed is the toilet. And this is where I created a logo for the meetup that I run with my good buddy Darren, NN1...
It was a good month for me. Very productive, slower than usual. When the rest of the world races, folks go faster, produce more than ever with all these modern tools, I find more joy in doing precisely the opposite. My friend inspired me to re-watch a decades-old conference talk about programming, and surprisingly I...
Modern IDEs let you jump from project to project with ease. Neovim doesn’t have this feature, so folks usually keep a few terminal windows or tabs open or jump between Zellij or tmux multiplexer panes. As you can imagine, there are also a gazillion plugins to fill this gap. None of these fits my bill, so I spent a...
Browser engineers encourage blogging about issues with engines, so here I’m reporting an issues with Safari that doesn’t respect the justify-content property on the subgrid containers. The justify-content is not only a property of a flexbox, but you can also use it on grid containers to define how to distribute the...
End of July? Seriously? Feels like yesterday when I celebrated New Year’s Eve, and all of a sudden it is the end of July. Can we all slow down a little, please? Not a little. Slow down! You, time, the world. Pretty please! I’m in a good mood today, but not in a good one to write interesting intros, so let’s go...
Inspired by Andy Bell, a few years ago I added a music page to my website. It is a mirror copy of my Discogs collection that I have meticulously maintained for over a decade now. A few folks have asked me before “how I keep my Discogs collection in sync with my music page”, so here is the answer. Next time someone...
The reason I write more Go than JavaScript nowadays is not because there is anything wrong with the language, but because I’m tired of the ecosystem. The language on its own is really good, it is the first programming language that I became productive with and I’m still motivated to keep up with the new additions to...
At the last State of the Browser after party, Manuel Matuzović was hanging around and randomly snapping pictures with friends using an instant thermal printing camera that he nicked from one of his daughters. What a fun it was! The next day I ordered the exact same one off Amazon for £18 for my daughter myself. It’s...
Do you remember the little drama with Apple and Google proposing two contradicting ideas about the native CSS way for masonry layout implementation? It is all over, and what we got is a beautiful compromise between the two in a the form of display: grid-lanes. This is super exciting as it has been a frequently...
Since you landed on my blog, the chance is high you’re a tech-savvy web geek. If you publish stuff yourself, the chance is even higher that you came across standard.site, a set of lexicons to sync your writing with the AT Protocol. There’s a tonne of hype on the internet about the thing, and a bunch of friends...
