39 Shirts – Leaving Mozilla

6.10.2020

Curate Custom Content with mediastack

6.10.2020
I used to have a personal aggregator of sites I enjoyed but maintaining it was a nightmare. I needed to grab each site’s RSS feed, categorize their contents, deal with errors and individual rate limits, etc. I had to tear the whole project down because it was a nightmare to manage. Fast...

How to Detect When a Sticky Element Gets Pinned

5.10.2020
The need for position: sticky was around for years before it was implemented natively, and I can boast that I implemented it with JavaScript and scroll events for ages. Eventually we got position: sticky, and it works well from a visual perspective, but I wondered how can we determine when...

Vital Web Performance

21.9.2020

Remove the Search Input Clear(x) Icon

21.9.2020

Logical Assignment Operators

10.9.2020
I love JavaScript, it’s my favorite programming language, but I love dipping into other languages because they offer a new perspective on coding paradigms. There’ve been syntax additions to JavaScript that I’ve seen I found interesting (think ?? in optional chaining) and now...

Match Emojis with Regular Expressions

19.8.2020
When experimenting with unicode property escapes, to identify accented letters in strings, it reminded me of a question I had a few years ago: what is the best way to identify and then replace emojis in a string? I first noticed this practice when using emojis in Facebook — sometimes Facebook...
