Seeing a lot of posts about generating OpenGraph images for 11ty posts, and suddenly realized my new approach will fail. I generate an html page, and I just want to snapshot that page in a build step. Right now it's looking for a URL, but (obviously) the URL doesn't exist yet. That's the point. But all the other approaches involve non-html image generation, or HTML/CSS limitations. And I don't want to do that. I just want my thing to work, please. Thanks.

A workshop on resilient CSS layouts

Oops was trying to touch-up the glaze that crawled, and re-fire, but I slipped.

CSS Working Group resolved to allow range syntax in style queries. We can compare with a container variable: @ container style(--var < 5em) But can also compare normal values: style(1em < 20px) style(sibling-count() > 3) This style function can also be used for conditions of inline if() #css

I watched a debate between Emily Bender and Some OpenAI Guy, and I just… - Bender: As an expert in linguistics, we have a pretty good grasp on "meaning" vs "form". LLMs are just putting words together. People will read meaning into it, but that's a lie. People will get hurt. - OpenAI Guy: If people read meaning into it, there's meaning in it *for them*. If things go wrong, that's a user problem. Capitalism, baby. Check mate, humanities and also sciences. Horoscopes are AGI now.

I love how much we can do by "setting aside the ethical and climate concerns" at the start of every modern tech talk, podcast, and article. So much we can do without those annoying ethical and climate concerns! Just set em aside! Cool trick! (real "I'm not transphobic, but -" vibes)

What if there was a co-op of developer educators? What if we built our own platform together? I bet that's a skill we have. Everyone could still post on other platforms as well, but this one we would own and manage together? I bet there's an audience, and even a profit-sharing business model that would make sense. Can we imagine collaboration?
