Kevin's one of my favorite people and what he says here is incredibly sweet... and accurate.
Kevin Powell@kevinpowell.co · 6d agoI hadn't posted over on the second channel in a while now, but I felt that it was important to talk about what's going on with @digitalocean.com and @css-tricks.bsky.social as the site has now gone quiet for a second time. youtu.be/9_upvxCAUzM
Today in CSS: We all know you can change the highlight colour of selected text, but it's impossible to animate that colour. Unless… the colour was just a variable inherited from the parent element, using @property to make it animatable… Hahahahaha…
Thought I should repost the lemonade stand instructions
Carney went "elbows up" over US trade, but now he's elbows deep selling everything off that he can put on the table for his investment banker friends. 1 TRILLION worth, up for grabs to the highest bidders including US investment firms. #Canada #Carney #CanPol breachmedia.ca/mark-carneys...

A CSS-only circular nav using experimental `::scroll-*`, `animation-timeline: scroll()` and anchor positioning. Scroll drives the items around the circle, with anchors handling the current label and prev/next controls. ⚠️ Chromium only. See the demo on @codepen.io: codepen.io/editor/cbols...
Voila: Elbows-deep neoliberalism sold to the public as elbows-up patriotism - selling off our ports of entry and infrastructure. Carney's neoliberal agenda is to identify & extract all value like a good little international banker. #canpol #Carney #PLC #Canada www.cp24.com/news/canada/...

Suicides, school shootings, & ensloppification aside, I feel like maybe actual AI engineers understand what is at risk more than vibe coders who insist AI is the future & that those of us who want it curtailed are doomers and luddites. Just maybe. #FuckAI #AISlop www.ctvnews.ca/sci-tech/art...
‘They’re playing with our lives’: AI researcher quits Anthropic
An artificial intelligence researcher who left OpenAI to join Anthropic has decided to leave the industry, accusing both U.S. companies of “playing with our lives” in the race to develop AI models cap...

As a Canadian, I say let us engage with the world; the Canadian fascination with the USA has been a lazy fallback for far too long. it's all simulacra and tedious nonsense from these American fools.
This is the ultimate truth of creatives using AI: they are completely lacking in original thought, or even the desire to engage with the creative process. AI is the ultimate surrender, admitting that you have nothing to add; even a simulacrum of creativity is more than you are capable of.
Every right that workers have today was fought for, and without organized labour, we will lose those rights again. Happy Labour Day. Join or start a union. #LabourDay #solidarity canadianlabour.ca/who-we-are/h...
1872: The fight for a shorter work-week | Canadian Labour Congress
Imagine working at least ten or more hours a day. Every day. That’s what many of Toronto’s print workers’ daily lives looked like in 1872, when the Toronto Typographical Union demanded a nine-hour wor...

Cosmos were my great-grandmother's favourite, and my grandmother's. They always make me smile, and are my favourite late summer flower. I love how their centres are a cluster of stars. I also love how much bumblebees enjoy them! #flowers #bloomscrolling #bumblebee #nature #photography
(Via MeFi) Check this fantastic blog post about Tuscan letters (1 of 2) It really opened my eyes to the history, evolution, breadth of motif variation, the relation to more traditional typography... blog.pampatype.com/tuscan-lette... #typography #typeDesign #Lettering
Okay so the trees in my neighbourhood are already changing colour and I saw a bunch of gees practicing flying in a V last week but I'm still in denial. This late summer. Shut up shut up shut up. There are still summer vibes to be had. #Summer #Montreal #ECK #EastCoastKin

This beautiful dictionary of colours found in nature dates back to more than a century before Pantone. 🎨 Werner's Nomenclature of Colour was an indispensable resource for Charles Darwin, helping him describe new species. We love these natural colours - which page do you like best?
Again, the state of CSS right now especially in terms of experimental interfaces reminds me very much of what Flash was used for back in the day - it's really become a fun experimental medium in its own right. #CSS #frontend #UIDesign

When I go to a Quebecois fast food joint and see a classic casse-croute peg board menu I know I'm getting the real thing. I like when restarauteurs use AI - it shows that they are cheapass dullards with no taste without me having to find out by trying their food. #AI #GraphicDesign #Business
