   from my experience, it's the expectations of the client has changed so much. and it's very difficult to deliver on their ambitions with the web browser as your platform. i feel like its impossible to get anything right because oft

    Yes, I remember all these :) I recall also using 1x1 transparent gif for advertising purposes but can't recall exactly why. Also using curved transparent gif images to give a rounded corner effect on elements using table cells for the

    would be good to add a light theme. i can't use dark themes because of astigmatism, so it's good for accessibility. nice idea so far. fwiw i've tried so many fonts and nothing beats andale mono for me on macos. i always come

    This is nice as a more opinionated version of create-react-app. helps solve some of the problem with the fragmented react ecosystem. It does seem a bit complex though, perhaps something you would use on large projects only.

    Writing modes, box-model, margin, padding, positioning (relative/absolute), flexbox, grid, media queries and units (px, %, rem, em). I've tried following the blogs mentioned in the past but it wasn't really worth the bother.

    Yes, I recently installed an npm package I built about 4 months ago and got an error the main attribute in the package.json file is deprecated. Googled it, without any meaningful search results. Just a small taste of my day, another rabbit

    The issue is that web development encapsulates too many different roles, each of them is a job in itself. The role has grown to encompass too many specialties: -You need to be an expert* JavaScript developer with strong understanding of com

    I have. I suggested limiting it to certain unproblematic areas. But, its a dogmatic all or nothing type of attitude unfortunately.

    It's really a trade-off. If the benefits outweight the possible negatives then I agree but in our case it's clearly not good, since the code being sent for review does not match the code on your local dev environment. Worst case s

    Totally agree. But I would say it's not just lack of experience. It seems a lot of the people now who have 2 years of experience are "Leads" or "Seniors" and they have a very dogmatic way of thinking based on the th

    Nice read. I've been doing web dev for 15 years. What has got me burnt out now: -Spend most of my time dealing with tooling issues. -Increasingly complex demands. Even the simplest problems now seems to be multi layered with dozens of

    Not a fan of the design of the Pixel or iPhone. They both have these cold, sterile design that doesn't look like it was designed to be used and held by a human hand. It was designed to be looked at or for curated display in an Apple St

    been using spotify for about 5 years and i swear the recommendations get worse and worse. i can't use the release radar or discover weekly playlist because they're so awful. maybe thats a reflection of my usage, but would be nice

    I guess I meant it in a kind of half poetic sense. I would like to write, or maybe do some kind of digital or video art. I got into web dev around 98-99 and i've been doing it ever since. I think what appealed to me about it about the

    yeah, i was just thinking today how slow and bloated the web feels. i know things have always been slow, maybe rose-tinted lenses and that but there shouldn't be lag on an input box when using a 2020 mbp with 64GB of ram. and the frust
