That article also doesn't support your assertion. For example, they specifically call out parking minimums and minimum lot sizes (both density-lowering regulations) as major drivers of high housing costs.

Luckily things are slowly changing for the better. You can actually style a <select> now! Browser support is still scant but it'll gracefully degrade to a normal looking <select>. https://developer.mozilla.org&#x

Did you mistakenly link the wrong article? This one definitely does not say that. Could you quote a passage that supports your interpretation?

That's actually a common strategy called "progressive enhancement". The only thing is that your order is backwards: you should first make it accessible in pure HTML and CSS, and then use JavaScript to layer your fancy interac

Here is a non-exhaustive list of issues you'll run into with various pure HTML and CSS implementations: - Tabs should have an ARIA "tab" role [1], but <summary> doesn't accept roles [2]. - Focusing a tab must acti

No, it's still true. I'm aware of that hack, but unfortunately it doesn't solve the problems with pure HTML and CSS tabs. Crucially, the `name` attribute does not semantically turn a group of <details> elements into a s

Same caveat applies to the "checkbox hack" or any other pure CSS solution. You cannot create accessible versions of most complex controls like tabs without JavaScript. (That first example could be created semantically and access

by jakelazaroff 10mo ago
Note that pure HTML and CSS implementations of tabs using <details> and <summary> fail to meet several important accessibility criteria [1]. While you can make something that visually appears to act as a set of tabs, building

When I started dabbling in web development, writing HTML and CSS was already its own job, and professional JavaScript developers basically did not exist. This was before TypeScript, before Node, before Ajax, before React or even jQuery. I

It'll just degrade gracefully into not animating the element's entry, so unless the animation is somehow crucial you should still be fine to use it. If you really need to detect whether it's supported there are hacky methods:

That is no longer true! You can do it in CSS with a combination of `@starting-style` and `transition-behavior: allow-discrete`. [1] Another gotcha you'll run into is animating the height. A couple other new features (`interpolate-size:

To be honest, I'm not even sure I'm fully on board with the labor theft argument. But I certainly don't think generative AI is such an unambiguous boon for humankind that we should ignore any possible negative externalities j

Anyone using the expression to refer to "the people" or "the press" obviously isn't talking about those groups' legal relationships to the de jure branches of government. My sense (from the Wikipedia article,

You are the lottery winner, extolling the virtues of the lottery. There are many other people who also made singular choices, that — by pure chance — did not pan out. It's good that you were in a financial position such that you co
