Today is my last day working on the @guardian website with @gdndevelopers. Along with my amazing colleagues we’re launching a beta for dark mode support, which you can opt in from the accessibility page or directly by following this link: theguardian.com/opt/in/dark-mo…

The Guardian chose Deno for crawling through their 2.7 million articles because of its: ⭐️web standard APIs ⭐️minimal dependency bloat ⭐️TypeScript support deno.com/blog/guardian

Or how to ease your parents with data 📊 ⛵️🗺️ Really loving this reuse/transparent code energy, well done @stevekrouse and @observablehq

@JoshWComeau Inspired by this I went all-in with an SVG 😛 Simulating wind is hard… svelte.dev/repl/d1db5bed2…

@zhenpixels Lovely writeup and illustrations!

Made a tool to explore patterns with radial symmetry, such as lace: #shape/NoIgpgTAxgdghgWwF4A4DmBrAPgRgCxYD6WAtDgGwDsuWAsgAwA0JAzPQDowDCEEjArAE4ABIKY4RYxhxgBlXsyHCmbTmpghGIBACscATxYAzGPQCOgo1mq1cgiFjws6TGVFbj+9YeXKMc3uSeKOqaIPwsZjBmSABOUHgAJvpYEChEqRAE9C7ScCiMKMrFOMI4fPT5hcXepWQVAFphiQAWUABuADYAznAAlgD25GCpOBkQLOS46Qx5BUXetWUVVQslwvXSTVowJnDtsXh9AC5QULgExFkEJPxTszKrNWXCy8wsnE+LL5ss2yBGWKUJA6NCJGAoCBmUbjfjUW6CXKPebPUpvVifFHfOrlRh-MJwDAYHD5FqUGA4AAOqXSV0o1ByDy+61xlSx6029CaAF0gA" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">mxdvl.com/works/rosace#s…

@juanbuis I love how “The Matrix” becomes « Matrix » in France but the Québécois audience get a proper « La Matrice » — I prefer a proper translation, or a complete reinvention like « Le train sifflera trois fois » for “High Noon”

"tangled" is a mysterious thriller! how do we keep the same vibe in french? france: SEX TROUBLE

for some *ridiculous* reason the french love to translate movie titles from english to... english here's a thread with my all-time favorites, starting with "the hangover" ...i mean VERY BAD TRIP

@mrb_barton Yeeeeeees!

My build just took 27 minutes 40 seconds to yarn install. What's the solution to this madness? Burn it all down and use Deno?

@mattdesl It’s in the big list of options: #output-format" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">rollupjs.org/configuration-…

@mattdesl You can use a bundler with different targets for this very purpose. I think Rollup handles these kinds of things very well.

some days, I really hate ES modules. they have a tendency to 'poison' libraries and spread bits of incompatibilities across package management ecosystems like a virus...

@mrb_barton As in it should not compile in the first place?

All code linting is busy work

@water__silk @rsnous slow-gu.deno.dev/uk

what's the slowest website in the world?

@desandro This is the content I’m here for

Gold checkmark SVG hardcore audit - Excess anchor points in flower shape - Excess color stop in gradient - Shape misalignment around checkmark - Whole excess shape underneath top flower. Remove opacity. Set final colors directly in gradient

@jaffathecake The time traveller’s unease?

Is there a name for the emotion you feel when your issue is marked as a duplicate, and merged into an issue filed _after_ yours?

The Performance Inequality Gap, 2023 infrequently.org/2022/12/perfor… — "We can now afford ~150KiB of HTML/CSS/fonts and ~300-350KiB of JavaScript (gzipped). Meanwhile, sites continue to send more script than is reasonable [..] This is an ethical crisis for the frontend." @slightlylate

Seems like @antfu7's antfu.me/posts/isomorph… no longer works in Node 16 :( #issuecomment-1344217640" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">github.com/rollup/plugins…

@Rich_Harris Spooky!

tl;dr a piece of CSS caused links on a completely unrelated part of the page to lose their hrefs, but only after you had interacted with one of them. and only on iOS safari (but not iOS firefox, despite it being the same engine) like... what

"safari is the new IE" doesn't refer to slow updates and missing features for me. it refers to things like github.com/sveltejs/kit/i…, which i find legitimately terrifying because the only possible explanation is that there is a demon inside the codebase

Today’s Hack @gdndevelopers is allowing customisation of servings on our recipes, just add #RecipeMultiplier on the URL, like so: theguardian.com/food/2022/nov/… (it breaks in all sorts of funny ways, so not rolled out at large yet)

@jaffathecake @motleydev @SaraSoueidan @aardrian But if you claim you’re all about that vegan baking and I can see two eggs in the bowl I’m pretty sure this ain’t going to be no vegan cake. Am i stretching that analogy too far or just hungry?

@motleydev @SaraSoueidan @aardrian Yeah, I think we agree. It's unproductive to look at two eggs in a bowl and shout "this is unsafe! It will make me ill!", it literally isn't ready to eat.

"If your MVP does not have #a11y factored in, it is not viable. If u claim a11y is a core principle but ur version 0 does not include it, then it is not a core principle." — Always appreciate ⁦@aardrian⁩ speaking the hard truth on behalf of us all. adrianroselli.com/2022/11/access…

@freezydorito And by somewhere I mean my parent’s basement somewhere in Canada 🐦
