Based on the first module of the course, I am confident that the full course will be worth the full price. But if you‘ll buy it anyway, why not get it for less now? bsky.app/profile/miri...

Next week, @stacykvernmo.com and I will be looking at dev tools again – talking about which browser we go to in which situations. Is there an inspector feature that you'll always switch browsers to use? Let us know! And join our live stream for an overview: www.youtube.com/watch?v=INqy... #css

Planning some yeti-lid-friendly tumblers, but I need to get the dimensions precise. These sauce bowls are trimmed to 1/16th-inch steps, to test shrinkage for this clay & glaze. Looks like I'll be aiming for 3 7/16" inside diameter after trimming. 😅 (3 10/16" ID wet)

It seems like a shipping-address form would be make a good standalone web component. I don't suppose one already exists?

Product idea: You know how people sell stickers to cover the "recording" light on meta glasses? Well I sell just a "recording" light to put on normal glasses without any camera. No surveillance, it just comes on at random times to uh… huh. There might be problems with this idea.

video podcast idea: you review my personal project JS code, and I review your personal project CSS

The features @miriam.codes has helped bring to CSS (Cascade Layers, Container Queries, Scope) have been rooted in a deep understanding of CSS’ _ethos_. They try to close the gap between how CSS could be used, and how it commonly is. If you want to close that gap in your own work (I do!), sign up

I consider myself a person who knows a lot about CSS... but @miriam.codes' knowledge eclipses mine by ~10,000%. She brings an artistry to the discipline of authoring CSS and I'm sure anyone – whether newbie or old-timer like myself – can learn a lot from her course.

Turns out you can just save the glowing testimonials for after you buy the course. Truly a no-brainer.

Hi, friends. The last 6 years have been a blast, but I just don't like being on The Internet anymore. I'm leaving DevRel, and I wrote a little bit about why. Look after yourselves, and each other. Love, Salma

Goodbye, forever, probably.

I’m leaving developer relations and developer education. Rather than disappear completely unannounced, I wanted to tell you why.

This here is the entire crux of the issue. We had sensible regulations requiring years of testosterone suppression and hormone therapy to play in women's sports. This had not been a problem for nearly twenty years, including at the olympics. Then the right made it one by straight up lying about it.

As a general reminder, Ben Shapiro originally wanted to make "Lady Ballers" as a documentary but had to give up on the idea because no one in the cast would agree to undergo the medical requirements necessary for them to be eligible to participate in competitive Women's sporting events.

I’ll use the quote I did for this page. Miriam has a unique talent of being extremely technical with CSS but communicates that so seamlessly and so inclusively that regardless of what level you’re at now, you’ll be so far beyond that when you learn from her. A true super talent. A bargain!

I wrote about the Supreme Court's latest disgusting anti-trans ruling. I wrote about it because I refuse to act like taking away constitutional rights and allowing legal discrimination is okay just because it's happening to people who don't poll well in a diner in Ohio. In @thenation.com

The Supreme Court’s Anti-Trans Ruling Goes Well Beyond Sports

The ruling is about whether trans people have the same rights as everybody else—and the Court said they don’t.

I love CSS, but it isn't perfect. Even the CSSWG admits so, with a published list of design mistakes. FixCSS is a little library that tackles these mistakes and presents the CSS syntax that could have been. A fun little look at an alternate universe. tangled.org/vale.rocks/F...

"It's just sports," "It will only affect a few people," & "It'll also be used against cis women" are, IMHO, all equally not-great takes on today's SCOTUS ruling, just different angles. The Supreme Court ruled it's okay to discriminate against a certain class of people. Full stop. That is a horror.
