Ayyyy! Just released 1.0 of my take on an opinionated CSS framework. varde.variant.dev/docs/ Look, I love packages, but isn't it something magical about just referring to a CSS file? To get fonts, colors and utilities. It's probably not a design system, but it certainly is the foundation of one.

Made a web component to progressively enhance good ol' SSR forms. Introducing <enhance-form>! You wrap a form with it and you'll get inline form validation with minimal effort. Heavily inspired by Unpoly 😍

Looking back at 2025, my own highlight is the talk I put together about color systems using OKLCH. youtu.be/pQ0asU6mB1I #designsystem #css

Norge har ambisjon om å gi Ukraina minimum 15 milliarder NOK i bistand hvert år fram til 2030, men det gulvet kan godt heves betraktelig. Nå, mer enn noen gang de siste tre årene, må vi som nasjon ha handlingskraft. www.aftenposten.no/meninger/deb...
aftenposten.no
Handlingsregelen må ikke stå i veien for en kraftig økning av Norges støtte til Ukraina
Ved å gi Ukraina det landet trenger, gjør vi nettopp det handlingsregelen var ment å gjøre.

Morsomste jeg har lest i dag er sinte kommentarer fra "Green Day-fans" som skal slutte å høre på dem fordi de har blitt politiske. Bitch, come on. Du hørte aldri på dem om du tror de først nå har blitt politiske.

The very short version: it is madness to continue transferring the running of European societies and governments to American clouds. Not only is it a terrible idea given the kind of things the “King o...

Burde Norge gjøre seg uavhengig av amerikanske datasentre og teknologi? Det er skremmende å tenke på at så mye av Norges digitale infrastruktur er utenfor vår kontroll. @krakels.bsky.social og jeg spilte nylig inn en podcast-episode om dette med Lars Iversen fra Atea: share.transistor.fm/s/b69ef07e

When SaaS products grow and the architecture starts to break down, two types of devs emerge: 1. Those who believe the system is beyond repair and needs to be totally rebuilt 2. Those who put their heads down and fix it one piece at a time I've only seen group #2 be successful.

The most humbling part of writing a presentation to explain a concept, is coming to realize you don’t understand the thing you want to present as well as you thought you did.

The whole starter packs concept seems like a good idea. But then I go into some profiles and they follow 30k people. And I wonder, what’s the point? It’s like having dozens of books in “currently reading” on Goodreads, you’re never going to get through all that.

Finished reading “Make Work Visible” last evening, which is all about the flow of work and exposing bottle necks and “time thieves”. I liked it but as with all “how do we work” books I’ve read it always seem to boil down to “to do this you need a major change in the culture of the company”

Apparently Jacob Collier, and I have this on good authority from the man himself, thinks the Oslo-audience is the best audience on the tour so far

Okay starting to really like some of the design decisions in Bluesky. Just found out I can unpin the Discover-feed to remove it as a tab. So now I have to actively search it out to be caught by the infinite scroll troll. 🧌

One weird thing I’ve noticed with using #anki daily is that for certain flash cards I am reinforcing the wrong answer. Each time I get to certain cards I think “OK I got this wrong last time, so I must take the opposite of my gut feeling”, and then it turns out I should have listened to my stomach

Self-imposed rules I’m trying to follow with social media at the moment: 1. Don’t install native apps, only interact with apps through browsers 2. Use extensions in browsers to block any attention-capturing algorithm-driven parts of the apps 3. Don’t allow them to notify me in any way, not even mail

Okay so I like the straightforwardness of saying this, but at the same time I don’t want to be served content by an algorithm. That is exactly what is cursed about the current era of Internet
