responsive web design is unique as an artistic medium because you’re designing for every potential canvas size at once. very few other things are like that

Marco Rubio just made the argument, bold faced, not a mistake an intentional statement, that at any time the US can revoke your visa and then you are instantly here illegally and they can arrest you, deport you, torture you, all without any due process.

That means the United States is simply unsafe

things are so bad that if you just tell people factually what's going on, you sound like a maniac ranting on a street corner, so at this point when people ask me how things are I just shake my head, look at the floor, and pour us both a drink

These extraordinary photos of the LA fires have been shared widely on social media, often without crediting the photographer.

These are all the work of Ethan Swope, an LA-based photojournalist working for AP.

most interesting framework for the sixth year running, most positively viewed for the second

Nearly 7 years ago, I blogged about Houdini + the CSS Paint API. codersblock.com/blog/say-hel...

It promised devs the power to extend CSS functionality by writing custom "worklets" in JavaScript. 💪

I loved the idea, but the API itself is STILL not cross-browser.
Say Hello to Houdini and the CSS Paint API
I haven’t been this excited about a new browser tech in a long time. Houdini is an ambitious project to give developers more power over CSS than we’ve ever had...

most of you were probably wondering what it looks like to leave a pinhole camera exposure going for 8 years (preferably by sitting it on a roof and forgetting about it). well--here you go!

This is madness. If other countries want to sell us solar on the cheap so we can expedite adoption of clean energy, let them. Either climate change is a crisis, or it isn't.

So Unity recently decided that the tiny startup I dayjob for needed to upgrade to Industry at 5k/year/seat. We had no chance to contest it because they would have killed our only product. They even threatened people we worked with in the past with the same.

It's not just us.

DO NOT USE UNITY!
