The Differing Perspectives on CSS-in-JS


Some people outright hate the idea of CSS-in-JS. Just that name is offensive. Hard no. Styling doesn't belong in CSS, it belongs in CSS, a thing that already exists and that browsers are optimized to use. Separation of concerns. Anything else is a laughable misstep, a sign of not learning from...

Moving Text on a Curved Path

More Cities and Regions Accepting Coins for Taxes, Services

Youtube Censorship Drives Uptake of Crypto-Powered Video Platforms


If the prospect of greater privacy and financial sovereignty doesn’t lure the masses to crypto networks, perhaps the ability to speak freely will. Lately, a lot of people who couldn’t give a damn about peer-to-peer cryptocurrency have taken a shine to peer-to-peer networks that run...

The Modern Era of Free Range Slaves: How Bitcoin Breaks the Mold


In a string of recent Tweets, 2020 Libertarian presidential candidate and fugitive from the law John McAfee has been talking about slavery. Urging people to “wake up” and assuring them that neither compliance with the status quo, nor stacks of riches, can set them free. Indeed, when...

Our friends might be hearing, or seeing, or touching the story so we are going to interpret and translate...

Datalist is for suggesting values without enforcing values


Have you ever had a form that needed to accept a short, arbitrary bit of text? Like a name or whatever. That's exactly what <input type="text"> is for. There are lots of different input types (and modes!), and picking the right one is a great idea. But this little story is about something...
