Halo Infinite Devs Delay For Health, Community Disappointed Anyway
25.4.2022
It’s rare to see a video game developer publicly acknowledge crunch, let alone cite its avoidance as a reason for delays.

Organize your CSS declarations alphabetically
23.7.2021
Eric, again not mincin’ no words with blog post titles. This is me:
The most common CSS declaration organization technique I come across is none whatsoever.
Almost none, anyway. I tend to group them by whatever dumps out of my …

The Deno Company
2.4.2021
I’m sure a lot of you are paying attention to Deno anyway, the next-gen JavaScript-on-the-sever project from Node creator Ryan Dahl, especially after dropping all these candid regrets about what happened in Node. But perhaps your paying more attention now …

Where Did Gamer Snacks Come From, Anyway?
27.3.2021
There are snacks, and then there are snacks for gamers. Through chalky chemical combinations of dubious repute, they will somehow make you aim better in Fortnite. How did we reach the point where snacks for a hobby that takes place primarily on the couch are basically workout supplements? On this...
Why Do We Call The Hardest Video Game Enemies 'Bosses,' Anyway?
19.2.2021
In real life, if you encounter a large being hell-bent on beating the crap out of you, you call them “an asshole” or “a fully grown polar bear, but in my backyard, like in those nightmares I have.” In a video game, you call them “a boss.” That’s weird! Plenty of people want to fight their bosses...

Bitcoin All-time High: What Is Peak Bitcoin Anyway?
24.11.2020
All eyes are on bitcoin (BTC), as investors take bets on whether the flagship cryptocurrency has enough gas in the tank to reach a new all-time high (ATH) in this cycle. Incidentally, that threshold means different things to different people and companies, depending on who you ask.
The all-time...
xm
21.10.2020
This is a neat little HTML preprocessor from Giuseppe Gurgone. It has very few features, but one of them is HTML includes, which is something I continue to be baffled that HTML doesn’t support natively. There are loads of ways to handle it. I think it’s silly that it’s been...

Bold on Hover… Without the Layout Shift
27.7.2020
When you change the font-weight of a font, the text will typically cause a bit of a layout shift. That’s because bold text is often larger and takes up more space. Sometimes that doesn’t matter, like a vertical stack of links where the wider/bolder text doesn’t push anything...

Do This to Improve Image Loading on Your Website
20.2.2020
Jen Simmons explains how to improve image loading by simply using width and height attributes. The issue is that there’s a lot of jank when an image is first loaded because an img will naturally have a height of 0 before the image asset has been successfully downloaded by the browser. Then it needs...
Web Component for a Code Block
18.2.2020
We'll get to that, but first, a long-winded introduction.
I'm still not in a confident place knowing a good time to use native web components. The templating isn't particularly robust, so that doesn't draw me in. There is no state management, and I like having standard ways of handling that. If...
Neumorphism.io
12.2.2020
I was sort of making fun of neumorphism the other day. I don't actually care that much. I mostly just think it only works on some flat colored backgrounds, mostly really light colors, and somehow that feels weirdly limiting. (nope, sure, sure, nope 🤷‍♂️).
Anyway,...
