Eventually they will realize that the zoning laws are the culprit. Until then most US urban planning will stay the sh*t show it is.

This gets more and more baffling. Everyday another totally useless framework gets released – and they never tell you what usecase this shit has. Seriously, what problem is solved by this? What is wrong by just writing VanillaCSS? This is be

Nice. Basically the same as a slide rule. There is a german company that still sells these. [0] [0]: https://www.rechenschieber-werbemittel.de/

It is more on the contrary. The registry is one of the most well-thought features of Windows. Also there is nothing like "bloat". No process needs too loop around or smth like that, so there is literally no way to have a forgotten

Really hard to understand. I think this should be rewritten to make it more clear.

Still no big MacBook Pro? (Sorry folks, 13 inch is not "Pro" in my eyes) Will we even ever get one? What's happening?

Ah yes, thanks. I missed that somehow when I took a quick look on paged.js. Do you have much experience with paged.js? I wonder what the benefits over weasyprint are.

Maybe I am missing something very obvious, but how do I get a PDF out of it in an automated way? That's what I like about pandoc + weasyprint. I just have a plain ol' markdown document and I receive a nice PDF in an instant. Just

True, it sometimes can get messy to get a decent output. But the dev team behind is currently working on replacing Cairo with a custom Python solution as layouting engine. This will hopefully solve a lot of headaches down the road. Sure,

This all sounds very much like there is some reaaally simple solution and nothing fancy going on. Expecially the "always circular" part threw me off. It looks like the blend effects you get when you make photos against the sun. Th

Sure, but does it do anything?

I don't get it. Why has everything to be called an "app" nowadays? All in all I have so many questions – Let's start with: "WHY, tho?"

I'm working on one! [0] However it's not quite done, yet. I'm mostly interested in PDF output, and not having LaTeX was one of the goals, so I use weasyprint for PDF generation. Too bad they are very slow with releases, a

You're welcome! Big fan of fSpy as well! Thanks for the update; would never guessed that it runs in the browser. Will you make that framework public at one point in the future? It would be exciting af to look into that. And thanks for

Lovely done! I wonder what their software stack is. My bets go to Grasshopper. Too bad the blog has no RSS btw.

Nicely done! You should add a background color for the website tho. Mine is set to dark, so I don't see anything. :D (Easy rule btw: If you style the forground you need to style the background, too. And vice versa. Your default setting

I think he refers to the slightly "biggening" of fonts. Which is a great thing, btw! because it helps with all that nonsense-designers-bs of suuuuper thin fonts nobody can actually read.

This approach doesn't appear to be really smart. Actually more in the contrary. While it depends on the product in general you should definitely give students some discount, or even free stuff (if those are licenses). Couple of reasons
