Same me, another platform. I code stuff. It usually involves some Maths. I enjoy music mandatory religion classes warned me about. And other things that may kill me.

linear() was a mistake, we should have had the functions generating the points in CSS, not the list of generated points.

But not much else is too complex to write by hand. Though some things (clip-path) are better off if generated in a loop, which is the big feature still missing from CSS for me.

And yet, the only way I was able to build this UI was by giving the AI the right answer, telling it to use subgrid instead of `display: contents`.

If I didn’t understand the mechanisms and limitations of CSS Grid layout myself, I wouldn’t have been able to provide this guidance.

Thank you, I did enjoy it, in spite of the miserable weather.

I was seeing a show across the street (Im Wizemann, Phil Campbell celebrating 50 years of Motörhead) that evening, so I filled the rest of the day by checking out the animals... and the plants bsky.app/profile/anat...

Saw the 🐊 & 🦁 too!
🍌 tree?

Well, 🍌 tree-lookalike. There's no wood trunk, there are just those huuuge leaf stems (the so called "dwarf" varieties have 3m stems).

Also: a cluster of bananas may weigh more than me.

(hate I even need to specify this, but not AI, all photos taken by me @ Wilhelma in Stuttgart)

Also, this was the 3D efect with SVG filters demo I couldn't find before (sorry, I have thousands and thousands of demos and search isn't working anymore)

Not today, sorry, got too much to do. Maybe tomorrow IF I have internet access.

I would use SVG filters to distort the gradient (feDisplacementMap with a feTurbulence map input) and create a 3D effect with lighting filters.

Prompted by a question [from reddit](https://www.reddit.com/r/css/comments/1j03iyv/comment/mf89ri9/), for which I also created [this Pen](https://codep...

I wonder why you'd even need to disable them. I've heard stories of stuff like that landing and being enabled by default, but that never happens to me, it's always disabled by default. Maybe it's because of other restrictive settings I have? Maybe it's because I'm in the EU?
