How I’ve Been Using Notion Personally and Professionally
16.1.2019
I use Notion quite a bit, both personally and professionally.

Google Chrome Labs vás vrátí do dětských let. Na web přenesly legendární hračku
14.1.2019
Je to hračka, kterou pamatuje snad každý člověk narozený v minulém století. Kreslící tabulka Etch-a-sketch, v Česku prodává pod názvem Grafo. Málokdo si na ni pomocí dvou otočných knoflíků nikdy nezkoušel něco namalovat. Pokud si chcete připomenout, jaké to bylo, díky novému experimentu od Google
Piecing Together Approaches for a CSS Masonry Layout
11.1.2019
Masonry layout, on the web, is when items of an uneven size are laid out such that there aren't uneven gaps. I would guess the term was coined (or at least popularized) for the web by David DeSandro because of his popular Masonry JavaScript library, which has been around since 2010.

Styling a Web Component
8.1.2019
This confused me for a bit here so I'm writing it out while it's fresh in mind. Just because you're using a web component doesn't mean the styles of it are entirely isolated. You might have content within a web component that is styled normally along with the rest of your website. Like this:

The practical value of semantic HTML
7.1.2019
I love how Bruce steps up to the plate here:
If the importance of good HTML isn’t well-understood by the newer breed of JavaScript developers, then it’s my job as a DOWF (Dull Old Web Fart) to explain it.
