Yeah, you're right. I did think EU membership was more aligned with use of the Euro (I only knew about the UK using the Pound but they're out). It's still true that each country chooses its currency but it would be just as we

Netflix's growth for a while has been in not just licensing TV and movies to stream but to become a studio producing TV and movies to stream (and even to show in movie theaters). They've also grown in the TV categories they offer

You got me, I actually searched for evidence that the <blink> element supported a `speed` attribute. The MDN page about <blink> has example CSS to make the element blink again. If you wanted to make speed variants, you could use

The current HTML spec says a cite attribute's value has to be a valid URL [0]. I don't know if that's a point at which the WHATWG and W3C versions differed, like on the <cite> element. I do think it came from a semantic

The loading attribute is more interesting and useful but I think it's already fairly familiar to Smashing Magazine readers. I think the decoding attribute could be useful for page rendering on very low-end devices, maybe also on pages

You're mixing up elements and element attributes. There is an <cite> element, which it appears Standard Ebooks uses, and a cite attribute, which is seldom used, probably because it's not exposed to the user in any way. Writi
