Let's Remember Gran Turismo 5's Intro, Which Was A Masterpiece
12.5.2021
We tend to associate video game intros with lavish, pre-rendered cinematic sequences. Something to help kickstart the story, set the tone. Which is fine, but there’s been a video game intro stuck in my head for over a decade now, and it wasn’t trying to tell me a story. It was trying to teach...

Just two weeks after the end of WandaVision, the next story in the Marvel Cinematic Universe is ready to be told.

Checkerboard Reveal

It’s all relative.
10.12.2020
I remember sitting in the back seat of our family’s Subaru station wagon. I was six and this was long before child carseats were a thing. My dad was at the wheel and my mom played 20 Questions with me while we drove to some vacation spot I can’t even remember.
It was my mom’s turn...

If you’ve ever thought to yourself, gosh, self, I wish I could have an Abstract Syntax Tree (AST) of this CSS selector, Lea has your back.
If you’ve ever thought that same thing for an entire CSS file, that’s what PostCSS is, which has gone v8. PostCSS doesn’t do anything...

How to Earn Interest with Bitcoin
5.8.2020
When I was young I remember looking at my bank book and seeing nice interest payments for cash I had in the bank. Fast forward to today and banks are giving essentially nothing for interest — your money just sits there collecting dust. In an ideal world you could put it into the stock market...
