now all we need is to define a standard form for export/import to improve portability and avoid vendor lock-in πŸ˜‚

Been working on one myself as well, a lot more minimalist though πŸ™‚ In your app you can re-run a session from the 'progress' page but there does not seem to be an easy option to do so from 'start session' ?

(my app is fully structured around the idea of "programs")

github stars (or equivalent marks of liking packages and repos) should expire after a year.

Demos like this are amazing, but are also absolute overkill. It is more an exploration of what "is possible" and not a guide that you "should" do it like this.

I semi regularly make over the top demos at work, and months later I will see a designer try something new because now they now they can.

sibling-index is super cool, especially with sibling-count and some hard-to-read calculations 😁

I used LinkedIN to circle back to past collaborators. Here are 5 lessons I learned on how the platform impacted our synergy potential:

1) It

2) Does

3) Not

4) Fucking

5) Work

My GF is binging "Younger" on Netflix and I have to explain to her so many of the references that she now suspects I am cheating on her with my younger coworkers πŸ€¦β€β™‚οΈ

Looks very nice! Any reason for the vastly different behaviour of the cards in the different sections ? Hovering over them on the front page, course page and articles all have a different effect. The inconsistency feels a bit jarring tbh :)

So far this seems to involve a lot of waiting...

today on my "learn stuff while not assigned to a customer project" agenda is "Vibe Coding". Exciting to see if I will be utterly frustrated at the end of a day, or have a decently working app to track my fitness exercises ?

I suppose the verb would be the same, but while "accessibility" usually means to convey how we use the site; the issue with being able to reach it in the first place would better be covered by "availability" I guess.

And if you want something maybe a bit different, depending on your background: "Into the Labyrinth" by Dead Can Dance, an older album that is a bit harder to classify. (if you are familiar with the Gladiator theme song you might recognize the voice)

"The Human Equation" by Ayreon (or any of the other albums) is worth listening too. Classified as 'rock-opera' this one tells the story of a man lying in a coma with guest singers playing different voices/emotions in his head.

december means advent of code πŸŽ„
this year, like every year, I will be using a language unknown to me beforehand because suffering is important (I guess)
this year that falls on "Julia" ❀️ excited to see how it goes πŸ˜„

I know it happened to some other people: but did you also have people recommend Motherlover to you ? "Lindsay you should read this, I think you would like it!" πŸ˜…

Whenever I ask an LLM to help me come up with ideas to demo some new CSS or JS feature at work it somehow spews out Svelte code to showcase it.

but nice write up, looking forward to be able to use that in the future

I think I found some answer somehow, based on the --foo example. But it's a bit complicated (I guess).
Take
Element: `max-width: var(--w, 100%);`
Container: `--w: 50px`;

And now want to have some wrapper in between that dynamically doubles this. You cannot do `--w: calc(var(--w)*2);`

I am probably missing something, but it only available for custom properties seems a bit strange and counterintuitive ? Aren't custom properties usually inheritable already ?

I actually bought Civ V physically and activated it on steam, so it doesn't show up on my purchases 😭 Which partially explains why it seems I bought my first game 11 years after activating my steam account πŸ€”
