Big Banks Enabled Jeffrey Epstein’s Sex Trafficking Crimes


Unlike the unfounded narrative that cryptocurrency enables crime, big banks are more than happy to serve unsavory clients if it is lucrative enough for them. The latest example of this is a report that Jeffrey Epstein was apparently using his bank accounts to fund sex trafficking and possibly other...

In Search of a Stack That Monitors the Quality and Complexity of CSS


Many developers write about how to maintain a CSS codebase, yet not a lot of them write about how they measure the quality of that codebase. Sure, we have excellent linters like StyleLint and CSSLint, but they only help at preventing mistakes at a micro level. Using a wrong color notation, adding...

Tax Expert: IRS Letters Confirm That Trading Cryptos Is a Taxable Event


The U.S. Internal Revenue Service (IRS) announced on July 26 that 10,000 American cryptocurrency users will receive a letter reminding them to pay taxes or amend any mistakes on past filings. At the time, IRS Commissioner Charles Rettig said U.S. taxpayers should take the warning letters...

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...

How much specificity do @rules have, like @keyframes and @media?


I got this question the other day. My first thought is: weird question! Specificity is about selectors, and at-rules are not selectors, so... irrelevant? To prove that, we can use the same selector inside and outside of an at-rule and see if it seems to affect specificity. body { background:...

Lessons Learned from a Year of Testing the Web Platform


Mike Pennisi: The web-platform-tests project is a massive suite of tests (over one million in total) which verify that software (mostly web browsers) correctly implement web technologies. It’s as important as it is ambitious: the health of the web depends on a plurality of interoperable...

Getting design system customization just right


I had a little rant in me a few months ago about design systems: "Who Are Design Systems For?"

Telling the Story of Graphic Design


Let me just frame this for you: we're going to take a piece of production UI from a Sketch file, break it down into pieces of information and then build it up into a story we tell our friends. 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...

Zoom, CORS, and the Web


It's sorta sad by funny that that big Zoom vulnerability thing was ultimately related to web technology and not really the app itself. There is this idea of custom protocols or "URL schemes." So, like gittower:// or dropbox:// or whatever. A native app can register them, then URLs that hit them...

CSS :not() with Multiple Classes


Say you want to select an element when it doesn't have a certain class. That's what the :not() selector is for. body:not(.home) { } But what if there are multiple classes you want to avoid? There are no logical combinators with :not(), like and or or, but you can chain them, which...
