Pretty exciting news to share today. I don't always share with whom I'm partnering, but this time, it's special. I'm partnering with Greyd.Suite to consult them on strategic and technical topics.

In the end I managed to get it halfway done in chunks but for the last two parts, it just would always remove the code so I went and did it manually. I was only asking for correct indentation and nothing else. I was working on a longer pattern that I wanted to have better readable.

"Error calling tool 'edit_file'." I was able to reproduce it a second time and I assume there was just too much data in the file, so Cursor was unable to handle it properly. I had a lot of issues and it was again a rather frustrating experience.

I asked Cursor to help me add correct indentation to a file and while generating it, it ended up throwing an error. While it worked on other files yesterday, it's not working today. Anyone know any good resources how to use Cursor?

Technisch ist der Text ja erreichbar und wird auch korrekt ausgelesen, aber wenn jemand eingeschränktes Sehvermögen hat und den Screen Reader als zusätzliche Hilfe nutzt, sieht die Person nicht, wo dieser Text genau herkommt. Nicht jedes hippe Design ist immer praktikabel 🙃

Das ist nicht barrierefrei, da zuerst der Text in der linken Spalte vom Screen Reader gelesen wird und die Website beim Sprung in die rechte Spalte unten bleibt, sodass alle "Karten" aufeinander gestapelt sind. Der Screen Reader liest dann die erste Karte vor, die aber von den anderen verdeckt wird.

I haven't been using Twitter too much anyway, and a recent tweet got way more negative comments on Twitter than over here. I'm still using both for some folks who have not yet moved over, and some conversations only happen there but yeah, I'm not so interested in this algorithmic shit over there.

I was wondering why Twitter didn't work all day and no one else seemed to complain about it online, so I was curious... Turning off that one browser extension that made it halfway usable made it work again, so it looks like it's blocking viewing the content when the extension is active.

This week's learning: Safari is the new Internet Explorer. Added what I thought is an accessibility improvement? Safari just doesn't display those items anymore. Trying to use a z-index? Well good luck if the rendering stack is turning out what you want it to be... or not.

Almost as good as the fact that @jessicalyschik.com and @karmatosed.art are being sponsored to work on WordPress is the explanation of why they are sponsored: “If you rely on an open-source platform, you have a responsibility to support the people who make it better.” greyd.io/why-greyd-is...

That's why I don't use it on my phone anymore (only to check notifications), instead only on desktop with a browser plugin that strips out all the BS and lets me see my timeline the way I want it. However there are still too many people over there from the WordPress community.

I know this doesn't answer your question, but I've been using the Logitech MX Keys for years now. I've used two Apple Magic Keyboards before that and I don't want to go back. There aren't any stores in your area where keyboards are on display so you can get a feeling for it?

I have been missing the "What's new in Gutenberg?" posts on the Make Core blog lately, as I found this always to be helpful when checking what just got merged. So I decided to ask if any help is needed and how to make these, and did one this past weekend: make.wordpress.org/core/2025/02...

What’s new in Gutenberg 20.1 and 20.2?
This time, due to the smaller sizes of the releases, this post contains information for both the 20.1 (22 January) and 20.2 (5 February) releases. “What’s new in Gutenberg…” posts (labeled with the…

TIL that when having a word with ß (lowercase sharp s) and using text-transform: uppercase, it will always convert into SS (two uppercase regular s) instead of the capital version which is ẞ. The fun with special characters. 🙃

I guess the numbers are only relevant to your own repositories as I've commented way more than once on Github. But hey it's blue and I got the cat 😀
A blue card with statistics about Jessica's Github account. At the top left, is her name, on the right is a score of 376. Below this line there's a pixel art of a white cat with steampunk-like glasses on, in front of what looks like a city with tall buildings. Below the image the Github username luminuu is shown, followed by a description:

A web wizard with 38 contributions, mastering PHP, CSS, HTML, SCSS and JavaScript. A versatile coder ready to tackle any project!

Below this sentence, there's a table with three columns, the first showing icons, the second holds the description and the third some numbers.

From top to bottom: 
- two icons with the Pull Request logo on a green gradient background, Contributions - Novice Maestro - 38 points
- one icon with a speech bubble on a white background, Comments - Silent Observer - one point
- three icons with the issue icon on a indigo blue gradient background, Issues - Issue Maestro - 74 points

Interesting, this looks more like a step up from the "Modern" color scheme that is already available. It's unusual, but I like it. Will probably very much like the A11Y color changes on the login form a while back, it was unusual at first but I quickly forgot about those again.
