TIL about `git commit --fixup` and `git rebase --autosquash`. Interactive git rebase is by far my favorite Git tool to use, it scratches a particular itch to create perfect logically atomic commits. That said, sometimes this kind of history

You can't style the label based on input state if you do that. If you instead order them like input + label, then you can style the label with selectors like input:checked + label.

They more than likely made that decision to be able to style the label based on input state using the + sibling selector. I use that trick for literally every visible input now.

It's funny because the entire Facebook ecosystem is designed to disincentivize meaningful posting. Just keep watching the ads and short form videos, user.

Yeah, small inconsistencies and some hand wavy language put me off from reading the entire article. Like, what do you mean by "vertices appear bigger in perspective projection"? Vertices are just coordinates in space with no size.

It's talking about styling properties of SVG elements (e.g. path, circle) via CSS. Not about styling the svg element itself.

I always finish that sentence in my head with something like "we care about your privacy so much that we want to collect all your personally identifiable data and sell it".

Over time, for my needs, I've gravitated back to fixed-size buffers. There are many apps where it really doesn't matter that they handle any string ever without truncation. A string is too long and won't fit? Whoops, just use

I sometimes use this approach for untangling unfamiliar undocumented code and for keeping track of what worked/didn't work for a particularly complex task. I found that it's a real life superpower, a literal augmentation of m

Have to agree, that description is more confusing than anything. I guess JS code that a web browser executes is considered "serverless" now.

I come from a background with a strong folk singing tradition, and this reminds me of the two camps of folk singers within it: the purists who want to preserve the "original" tempo, lyrics, melody as it was recorded and documented

A lesson I learned very early on: don't use -ffast-math unless you know what it does. It has a very appealing name that suggests nice things. You probably won't ever need it.

What motivates the uutils project? I get rewriting things in language X. I don't really get naming your thing the same name, making a pretty website for it, and apparently trying to replace the original thing.

Thanks for giving it a try! Let me know if there's anything that needs improving.

Agreed. I was thinking how, even if you somehow create something in isolation, all it can do is stand on its own. A thing created on top of decades and centuries of other creations stands taller, it has history and context.

That's awesome, looking forward to it. Would love to report more, but this is on Android - I wouldn't even know how to go about getting a stack trace. Being on Android, I can't even see the developer console.

This is cool. I didn't expect much on mobile (hey it's Simcity), but this page actually froze Firefox for me, on Android. Had to kill the process. That happens rarely. BTW, here's a little game that I ported to the browser. G

The best code that I've worked with is always code that is easy to modify. Code that I read rarely could be anything; I'm really oblivious to how good or bad it is until I need to modify it.

Nobody mentioned this but software patents are/were a pretty good reason to avoid looking at other people's algorithms.

Very contextual. I've been appreciative of act-on-release in UIs where I can click a button with the mouse and then drag away from the button before release to change my mind. And that UI behavior has been around forever, way before to

I realized this as I saw many of my favorite gaming Youtubers chase the algorithm and change their content to stay relevant. It all eventually converges on content that children would find entertaining. They're the biggest demographic
