I've finally got a blog of my own! I'll be sure to post the articles here as well—or you can subscribe to a feed. yaroslav.io/posts I'll mostly write about open source projects I've done lately and continue doing. Staying away from "thought leadership" BS.

That’s what I call a quality AI-generated content

Hey GitHub! I believe you need to reindex your status data too. Cause I’m pretty sure we witnessed some “yellow” days in April

My oh my... We spent so much time on the new SVG minification that I've started seeing dreams about it. We even had to invent our own XML parser!

This was inevitable 😎

@AetherAurelia I can't get your point 🙂 Yes, some screens don't use the full width, and vertical tabs don't eat valuable horizontal space. Yet some screens do use the full width, and vertical tabs do eat their precious horizontal space. Horizontal tabs just look like a lesser evil to me 🤷‍♂️

@darth_sim Again I think we agree here it’s just case by case, pull request screen is fine it’s in 2 columns I just found the value in vertical tabs when I was in University and writing with lots of sources and had a lot of reading and tabs I don’t really use them at work anymore

Oh, I love “most X don’t do Y” takes. Well… what about ones that do? GitHub does. Figma does. Google Colab does. Most dashboards do.

@AetherAurelia Again, some screens. What about the rest? Every page that shows code utilizes the full width. The pull request page has two code columns, which makes horizontal space even more valuable.

@darth_sim I’m pretty sure GitHub does not take the full width in some of its screens, it’s just a case by case basis of what’s determined to be best, loads of content being full width wouldn’t be good

You can’t get rid of vertical scrolling anyway. So loosing that 3% of vertical space is not such a big deal. Loosing horizontal space where you need it is way worse.
