(This is a sponsored post.) I wonder how many startup ideas have something to do with air travel? 🤔 It's such a big industry with so many pain points its no wonder that it inspires ideas for building new products. Here's the thing about a lot of startup ideas: you need data. Chances...

What does “revert” do in CSS?

28.1.2020
Miriam Suzanne has a Mozilla Developer video on the subject. The revert value is fairly new, supported in Firefox and Safari, but not yet in Chrome-world. We've already got a couple of related keywords that work on any property which are meant to help control inheritance and reset values....

Woodworking SVG (and Other Real Life Encounters)

27.1.2020
Eric Meyer does his woodworking math in SVG. I’ve been hand-coding SVG schematics to figure out how thing should go together, and as a by-product, guide me in both material buying and wood cutting. This might sound hugely bespoke and artisanally overdone, but they’re not that complicated, and...

Going Beyond Automatic SVG Compression With the “use” Element

27.1.2020
If you draw your own SVG files or if you download them from the internet, tools like this SVG-Editor or SVGOMG are your friends. Compressing the files with those tools takes only few seconds and reduces your file size a lot. But if you need to use your SVG inline to animate or interact with...

Simple Image Placeholders with SVG

27.1.2020
A little open-source utility from Tyler Sticka that returns a data URL of an SVG to use as an image placeholder as needed. I like the idea of self-running utilities like that, rather than depending on some third-party service, like placekitten or whatever. Not that I'd advocate for feature...

“Browser Functions”

26.1.2020
Serverless functions are fairly straightforward. Put a bit of back-end language code, like Node, in the cloud and communicate with it via URL. But what if that URL didn't run a back-end language, it ran an actual browser? Richard Young: We can now do full stack development using just Web APIs....

The Iranian government has reportedly issued more than 1,000 licenses for cryptocurrency mining since it began regulating the industry. A number of large mining farms have set up in the country, but high electricity tariffs have kept many small investors away. Also read: Regulatory Roundup —...

Flexible Captioned Slanted Images

25.1.2020
The end result of Eric Meyer's tutorial on creating this row of slanted images is pretty classy. But it's more about the journey than the destination (there isn't even really an isolated demo for it). Eric does an amazing job at talking it through like a thought process. We did that recently, only...

Min and Max Width/Height in CSS

24.1.2020
Here's a nice deep dive into min-width / min-height / max-width / max-height from Ahmad Shadeed. I like how Ahmad applies the properties to real-world design situations in addition to explaining how it works. In the very first demo, for example, he shows a button where min-width is used as a method...

What Is the Ideal Block Size and Fee Cost?

24.1.2020
Many of the debates around block size in Bitcoin operate under the false premise that the question can even be properly answered by a central authority. But markets are better at deciding these questions and block sizes and fee costs should be worked out by miners and users, not development...
