TIL: “Use native HTML elements for accessibility” has an exception: the <video> player.
Native controls get way too verbose when focus enters the player.
For a more accessible experience, skip them and build custom controls with clear labels + predictable focus.

#TIL Hostile architecture, also commonly referred to as exclusionary design, describes attempts to restrict a person’s ability to use a public space. It aims to fight perceived social disorder rather than maximise the utility of public spaces. It’s also tied to systemic racism. #DarkPattern

TIL about banana ball
via this reddit comment:
"The one of the great things about the Bananas is that they remind us that baseball is a ridiculous game where oversized men play tag in pajamas, and we're just here to distract ourselves as we all die."

#TIL courtesy of a YouTube thumbnail featuring PTA that The Searchers' title in French is La Prisonnière du désert, and wow, that's a fancy title, I wonder what John Ford would've said.

原來Unicode還有NFC、NFD等4種形式的，難怪NAS最近莫名其妙會出現兩個相同名字的資料夾，用ls -li能看到兩個資料夾的node編號不一樣，都是通過rsync同步資料時才會出現。
ChatGPT說macOS使用NFD，Windows使用NFC，Linux默認來什麼照單全收，所以會同時存在NFD和NFC兩個規範的資料夾。

Today I learned that you can use `field-sizing: content` to make the `<textarea>` shrink and grow with the text in it. Try it out: (If you can, haha ^^) <textarea class="w-full p-2 rounded-xl bg-zinc-700 focus:outline-none" style="field-sizing: content" ></textarea> It's not available everywhere as of today (field-sizing: content | Can I use), but that's up to you to decide. :)
Today I learned that field-sizing: content exists :)
