We can animate an element along the border edge of another element to random positions... pretty easily? Might as well be a cute dog.

Went camping with Adam. He blogged it because blogging rules. His post has some videos we did kinda right when we got there for a memento. Here's a couple of those same songs in shorter clips smooshed together. https://www.instagram.com/p/Ddsdb1bS4z8/

I've got a basic block of Zwilling J.A. Henckels knives. They are fine? Or were they when I got them? They got dull. I bought the HORL®3 knife sharpener to bring them back to life. It absolutely didn't work after really committing to trying to get it to. I took them to one of those...

I bought a standup bass back in June! I set up a Facebook Marketplace alert for them, and it actually worked; a good option came up. It feels like Craigslist and Facebook Marketplace are the only options for local sales online, and it's been that way for a long time. And Craigslist sucks? It used...

It's a little surreal watching Kevin recap the current CSS-Tricks situation. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9_upvxCAUzM It's been rollercoastery after DigitalOcean's acquisition. Thoughts: DigitalOcean bought the site. They can do whatever they want with it. At the very least, I hope it stays online. Aside from a general distaste for bitrot, a lot of people have bylines on that...

What? Axe-con '27: The world’s largest digital accessibility event. Where? At your computer. When? February 23-27, 2027 Who? Me! I'm a keynote speaker along with Jennison Asuncion, Co-Founder of Global Accessibility Awareness Day (GAAD). There will be 70+ other amazing presenters as well I'm sure that will be announced soon. Why? Because it matters.

I think I bought this thing at some grocery store endcap or something. The magic is that it can do all three advocotasks: Cut avocado in half (little knife thing) Take out the pit (little indent with teeth thing) Cut avocado halves into slices (grate thing) Amazing! All in one! My review: I actually kinda...

The commerical airport we use here in Bend, Oregon is actually in Redmond, Oregon. Flights from here generally depart very early. It think it's because they need to make it to bigger airports to make connections to further-away places. Flight typically depart at 4:30-6:30 AM. They want your bags an hour before departure, and the...

A podcast about front end web design and UX.

Arc is the greatest web browser ever, and has been tragically moved-on-from by The Browser Company of New York-come-Atlassian. I've been back on it the last month or so though. It's still very usable as they keep the Chromium version updated. I just really like it. It's so good. My second favorite is Zen because...

It was March 2022 when I sold CSS-Tricks to DigitalOcean. So it’s been just about 2 years now. This was me and my wife’s thinking: The negotiated sale price was fair. They are a big com…

Because I haven't published anything to it since August 31. And no one else has either. That's not a super long time to go silent but it is for a site that

A curated list of resources for the Cross-Origin Storage (COS) API - tomayac/awesome-cross-origin-storage

I pulled the trigger on an underdesk treadmill. Basic research suggested GoPlus is a decent one. I was hoping it would be $300-400 USD. Turns out this one is just $119.99. So cheap it had me a little worried, like it was going to be cheap junk, but I pulled the trigger anyway. It took...

Normal text wrapping can leave big gaps in your container, which can become even more exaggerated with the new-ish CSS values of text-wrap: balance and text-wrap: pretty. You almost certainly want …

I'm a good 50/50 split on music and podcasts while I'm driving. So lots of podcasts! I love them! I use Overcast, and it's got a decent CarPlay app. So I see this screen a lot: Nice. It shows 3 podcasts I've started and 5 of the most recently published podcasts to choose from. THIS...

A project overdue. As an 80's/90's kid, I was obsessed with printing technology - and especially halftone patterns. I've long theorized that these pat

It's my birthday! Well, it was a couple of days ago. I was busy. Here's an element that I made all by myself. People that make things interesting are so cool. I’m super down to go to a Renaissance Fair. Vouri t-shirts are the best. Their socks suck. Smart wool is the way there. I...
