Archives: Notes

  • I might be overthinking it but I’m trying to decide the correct emoji order for a shave. I think it’s 🧔🔪 as the latter is the modifier, similar to gender modifiers ?‍♀️♂

  • @jensimmons has tip after tip after tip while discussing CSS layout on the Big Web Show. It’s very much worth a listen (and follow if you’re not already).

  • I never want to hear accessibility is too hard again, games are blind accessible. Games!

  • At a recent project’s peak, I was code reviewing full time for around 15 people. I sure did a lot of “LGTM, Approve” code reviews and no one seemed to mind. Why? I was respectful with change requests, happy to rubber duck & got to know the team. LGTM is fine. Respect is the key.

  • The descriptor “the bone has been removed and replaced with pancetta” needs to be used more often.

  • Not sure if anyone’s said this before but CSS Grid is p good.

  • Something I love about this original Hamilton performance is seeing LMM looking around after the first verse, realise the room is into it and visibly relax. It’s a really sweet, human moment.

  • Listening to a Twenty Thousand Hertz episode on noise pollution. If you’re a remote worker, it turns out it’s worth sending the boss noise canceling headphones before jumping on Zoom to ask for a pay rise.

  • Oh wow, it feels weird to nest @ rules in vanilla CSS, ie: @suports ( cool-new-feature ) { @media ( wide-enough ) { /* ... */ } } .

  • Week one of learning a new codebase.
