The main downside to many mobile web sites is the desperate plea to use the app you have to dismiss every time. I feel sorry for the devs who build a great mobile version only to be forced to put a stupid "$SITE is better in the app&qu

>Long-press on the dash on mobile (in Google keyboard at list) gives you two em-dash options. One is an em-dash (—); the other is an en-dash (–). See, e.g., https://www.merriam-webster.com/grammar/em-dash-en-dash-how

I don't believe you want to have a productive conversation about this. It sounds like you just want to be angry.

It does. It bridges a purely server-rendered architecture with a SPA really nicely, and does it mostly with web standards. You don't need to run any client-side JS with a Remix app. It's not perfect, but there are a lot of benefit

Maybe as freeze-dried backpacking food? But I expect it's not economical compared to existing options that seem much easier to prepare in bulk. PSA: "pierogi" is already plural.

Not sure about a GUI way of doing this, but in the CLI, I use `git log --patch [path]` all the time. It will show you the history of diffs for that one file.

The thing is, scaling font size does not necessarily mean you want to scale other aspects of the UI. Josh Comeau touches on that in this post: https://www.joshwcomeau.com/css/surprising-truth-about-pixel...

Yeah, +1. I started as a backend dev and for a long time, I knew just enough CSS to be dangerous. After taking that course, I feel pretty confident. Josh is quite good at balancing aesthetics, standards, and pragmatism. He explains the mech

It's just a nice, playful touch.

And no answers, huh? I'm stuck on 38. Edit: it doesn't mention that `anchor()` can accept an anchor name, which is kind of important for this.

Neat. The museum framing is cute, and well executed with the footsteps sound between levels. On level 20, if I set `position-try-fallbacks: flip-inline;` and drag the anchor to the top, something weird happens: the label stays on top, but i

There's plenty of dystopian sci-fi out there with all sorts of ideas about that.

I'm also planning to leave. It's offensive that they decided to do podcasts and audiobooks and not allow you to turn that off in the UI. I want an app to listen to music! But someone there apparently thinks they can engage me more

https://nebula.tv/ is a nice YouTube alternative for that kind of stuff (disclaimer: I'm mostly a subscriber for the music content, so my perception may be skewed).

Did he consider an absence of criticism to be praise of his management technique?

I can't speak for the original commenter, but for me, it serves to remind me that I'm working with some very talented engineers, which feels good. Plus I think it helps to build trust, which is useful when you're not seeing e

Nice analysis. The point about titles is interesting: given how content spreads on the Internet, it's really an invitation to potential readers. If you take that too far, it can devolve into tacky link-bait, but it's worth thinkin

Google Drive uses it as an interaction pattern. I find that baffling, but while uncommon, it's not totally absent. And as others have pointed out, many users carry over their expectation of having to double-click from desktop interface

Lake Geneva is the English name commonly used to refer to Lac Léman. I suspect you know that, but I don't follow why you object to that name.

I've started using Navidrome with Symfonium a few months ago. Navidrome is pretty good, but I'm very impressed with Symfonium. It's simple, responsive, and straightforward, but it's got a ton of options so you can fine-t

Pretty sure. Tastes vary, but you're arguing that runaway commercial success is a prerequisite for artistic success? Not to mention that those superstars need to come from somewhere. If a career in music is basically like spending all

But the system is set up so that, more and more, they're competing for scraps. Shouldn't we incentivize making good art, rather than just becoming a superstar?

by uhoh-itsmaciek 2y ago
Is it? There's no shortage of posts arguing that for most artists, live performances are not really all they're cracked up to be [1]. [1]: e.g., like this one from David Lowery of Cracker and Camper Van Beethoven: https:/&#x

Oh awesome, thank you! I'll have to investigate this and play with it, but that makes sense.
