Martin Underhill @tempertemper.bsky.social · 21/09/2026I've just finished renovating a guitar. Complete refinish, from bare wood to this lovely Lake Placid Blue (but non-metallic; I really don't like metallic finishes!). 010
Martin Underhill @tempertemper.bsky.social · 21/09/2026Oh! The Siri app has just become available on my Mac. I don’t think it was there when I updated to macOS 27 last week; maybe I requested it in settings? Odd that there was no notification. 000
Martin Underhill @tempertemper.bsky.social · 31/08/2026D'y'know what I really want from an iOS update? The calculator app's buttons to give haptic feedback. 010

Martin Underhill @tempertemper.bsky.social · 09/03/2026I just used CSS floats to achieve a layout on a site that otherwise uses Grid. Could've hacked my way to success using Grid, but it would have been a lot of CSS, or changes to the markup; neithr of which felt right for the project. So: floats. Weird. 020

Martin Underhill @tempertemper.bsky.social · 04/12/2025✍️ I've been thinking about pagination a fair bit lately, and my latest blog post is about whether pagination take you to a new page or not. Sounds like a silly question, but it's totally not. Have a read! www.tempertemper.net/blog/should-...tempertemper.netShould pagination take you to a new page?‘Pagination’ has comes from the word ‘page’, so yes, pagination should consist of pages. But the question is totally valid; worth digging into! 000
Martin Underhill @tempertemper.bsky.social · 03/12/2025'Next' and 'Previous' in a paginated list is straightforward: 'Next' takes you forward a page, even if it's backwards in time, like a list of blog posts; 'Previous' takes you back a page. But 'Next' and 'Previous' when on an item within a reverse chronological list is all sorts of mind-bending 😵💫 100
