Delivery day for our Rivian R2. Bethel Park PA service center treated us right. Can’t wait for the daily drives and upcoming ski season trips. The 4Runner is going to have light duty moving forward.

Firefox's new design ships September 29. And did you know... The Firefox UI is built with Lit? A web browser built with web components! 🔥

🌶️ HOT TAKE! 🌶️ Figma is not a very good source of truth for your design tokens. The limitations in types and the way features are implemented make it difficult to capture common tokens like line heights and shadows. #DesignSystems

This was also the case in Firefox to which I wasn’t logged in at all to.

If you're dealing with SVG icons you probably know the pain of overwriting colors. There's a new spec in the making that allows controlling CSS variables from "the outside". And it's shipping in Firefox already! drafts.csswg.org...

Code snippet: img { link-parameters: param(--color, green); } and .foo { background-image: url("image.svg", param(--color, green)); }

Imagine if a whole platform was locked down where you have no freedom of choice which browser to use…. That would be awful 😏

I still need to take a deeper dive into web awesome SSR. I gave Astro a try awhile back wasn’t convinced I liked it, but I can see the appeal for others. Looking forward to taking a look at the config.

Curtain Bluff is an amazing resort in Antigua if you are ever looking for a nice getaway.

First night sunset over the bay, fluffy clouds and slopes mask part of the sunset red lit sky.

Panorama view from a top the bluff. Beautiful palms and tropic plants line the frame with the bay and resort beach in the distance.

We must speak plainly about the agenda Elon Musk & other MAGA leaders are pushing. It’s white nationalism. There’s no room for Black, Hispanic/Latino, Asian, Native, Jewish or all other Americans in Musk’s monocultural vision. Multiculturalism is superior. We can’t allow Musk & others to end it.

border-shape can handle both insets and outsets, so you can do effects like this chevron nav (corner-shape can't do both). This means you get a perfectly-wrapping focus ring without needing to manage z-index or having it partially covered due to overlap. Demo: codepen.io/una/pen/ByzY...

Hot off the presses! Firefox Nightly (www.mozilla.org/en-GB/firefo...) adds the new :heading pseudo! Easily style all headings, or use nth-child-like AnB syntax to select a range of headings! Needs `layout.css.heading-selector.enabled` flag enabled. Try it out and let me know your thoughts.

A screenshot of Firefox Nightly, with the Codepen https://codepen.io/keithamus/pen/wBaZVaX open. The page showing 6 heading levels, showing the CSS, HTML and the rendered page. Each heading is styled differently using the provided CSS selectors, `:heading` (which styles all headers), `:heading(-2n+3)` (styles h1 and h3 elements), `:heading(5, 6)` (styles the h5 and h6 elements). Another Firefox Nightly window is open, showing the `layout.css.heading-selector.enabled` flag is set to `true`, making the rendered page styled using the new selectors.

Proposal to rename "dependencies" in package.json to "liabilities”. So the new structure would be: ``` { "liabilities": { "react": "^19.0.0", "typescript": "^5.0.0" }, "devLiabilities": {...} } ```

Without words. Sorry to hear this. Sounds like a terrible decision on googles part. Hope you find something that makes you forget about “mega corp” & makes you feel appreciated as much as I know the web community appreciates you! Enjoyed speaking with you in person late night after frostapalooza.

I’ve personally never cared for the idea of skeleton loaders either. I want to do better by the end user. The middle ground often feels missing or impractical.

Balancing building complex web components and the desire for progressive enhancement is hard. Hiding content from users until components load brings up ptsd memories of flash load screens.
