ReliCSS is a "CSS hack" detection tool designed to help developers identify and replace outdated browser-specific CSS hacks with modern, standards-compliant alternatives.

Real-time "CSS hack" detection and analysis with instant feedback
Context-aware modern CSS suggestions
Client-side processing - your code never leaves your device

Differences:

• light-dark() requires a color-scheme
• prefer-color-scheme doesn't consider the color-scheme

Always plaintext.

The app is deployed with a shortcut.

So the workflow is simple:

• Read a post in the browser
• Click “Edit” hyperlink to open plain-text file in native app
• Make changes
• Fire Shortcut to trigger a build

A script add the link "Edit" when the URL contains ?edit=true

An alternative to Notion

A thoughtful post about prioritizing new development in a project.

They are browser specific (Payment API, Passkeys, Speech recognition). It matters because the portability between browsers is then an illusion, the respect of the privacy is unreliable and they are a way to keep small competitors out

Done subtly and in moderation scroll fade can look fine†. Alas and to my dismay, subtlety is not a virtue of scroll fade proponents. Nor is timing. I’ve built too many websites that got almost to the finish line before I was hit with a generic scroll fade request. Fade what? Everything! Make everything fade into view! It’s too static, you know? Make it pop!

Winning arguments against: accessibility, impact on core web vitals

The JS Date object is not consistent: there are quirks with its constructor, the JS date is a time object, no sense of time zones beyond one and GMT, absence of daylight savings time, a need for third-party library that is a performance drain. "My problem with Date is that using it means deviating from the fundamental nature of time itself."

The Time is a location in the flow of which events occurs.
Date represents a (readable for human) time

The date object is itself mutable, so it's ok to set a day in place. It can cause unintended side-effects in codebases.

So Temporal comes in. it's a namespace object like Math. There are multiple useful functions, but another magic is in the prototype chain: equals, add, inLeapYear, monthCode.

First, there are plenty of methods and properties devoted to access, format and manipulate the details of the temporal object.
Secondly, "none of these transformations required us to manually spin up any new objects, and that the value of the object referenced by nowTemporal remains unchanged."

Using temporal reduce the boilerplate so much!
Temporal.Now.plainDateISO().add({ days: 1 })

Also Temporal have some time for experimentation.

DebtBomb is a cross-language technical-debt enforcement engine that scans source code comments for time-limited "debt bombs" and fails CI if any have expired.

As shown above, the subpixles in the Dell S3225QC QD-OLED form a square with green on the top, a larger red pixel in the lower left, and smaller blue

So OLED has a definitive drawbacks for some displays, but

This gets at why OLEDs make great TVs and gaming monitors. The contrast is outstanding, color is excellent, and high refresh rates are ideal for moving images and fast-response games. [...] They also work great on small devices like phones where the pixel density is so high that fringing is too small to see.

But on desktop monitors for still things — text and fine lines — OLEDs currently just aren’t great; I guess that’s why office and productivity type monitors are still LCDs.

If markup is complicated, then the opposite of that complexity must be markdown

For developers, Markdown has long been the lingua franca of the tools we string together to accomplish our work.

But the truth is, most people today who make technology are actually still exceedingly normal, and quite generous. t’s just that they’ve been overshadowed by their bosses who are out of their minds and building rocket ships and siring hundreds of children and embracing overt white supremacy instead of making fun tools for helping you type text

Even AI uses markdown formatting under the hood.

It’s important for everyone to know that the Internet, and the tech industry, don’t run without the generosity and genius of regular people

The majority of the technical infrastructure of the Internet was created in this way. For free, often by people in academia, or as part of their regular work, with no promise of some big payday or getting a ton of credit.

10 reasons markdown won:

1. it had a great brand
2. it solved a real problem: too painful to write HTML, and a legible plain text is better
3. built on behaviors that already existed
4. mirrored RSS in its origin
5. there was a community ready to help
6. it had the right flavor for every different context, for example the Commonmark and Github-Flavored.
7. Released at a time of change in behaviors and habits: You can get people to change their behaviors when they’re using a new tool, or adopting a new technology.
8. Came right on the cusp of the build tool era: there were new at that day.
9. Worked with view source
10. Not encumbered in IP

Black and white cartoon-style illustration divided into four horizontal strips.
In the first strip, with the text “BOSS,” a person sitting in a cart is pulled by four people in front.
In the second strip, with the text “LEADER,” the cart is pulled by four people together, including one in front leading the movement.
In the third, with the text “INTROVERT,” only one person pulls the cart alone.
In the last, with the text “AUTISTIC,” the person does not pull the cart, but drives a steam locomotive, representing a completely different solution.
