I create things in a wonderful place called the internet and sail boats on a lake between three countries.

That’s the joinery finished. Alas I am out of shellac or varnish; so it’ll have to wait now. Need to fit a backboard once that’s done, and decide if the bottom compartment will be for a basket drawer or to put some doors on it.

It’s not perfect, but it’s not too bad.

A close up of the top section showing that the top shelf is made with a lapped dovetail joint.
The side table is on top of my workbench. It has no backing board yet and no finish applied. It is made of redwood (a softwood pine), and it has two internal compartments.

@mattwilcox plywood? Looks good, isn‘t heavy as lead, is fun working with and won‘t warp. The better quality stuff of course. In germany it’s called multiplexplatte and could be marine grade in englisch. 6mm of that is already pretty much no warp.

On SVGs & performance: is there a perf reason to inline an SVG image (so the XML code is visible in your HTML source) rather than pulling in an external resource e.g. <img src="zonk.svg">? It feels a bit like inlining images with base64, which doesn't therefore take advantage of the browser cache.

jfroehlich,
@jfroehlich@mastodon.social avatar

@Meyerweb @pepelsbey @brucelawson and you can use custom properties this way, not just currentColor. That's the biggest winner for me.

tried making spätzle for the first time tonight...a fun success (if you're not too fussed about the shape)

a pot of boiling water, with a few spaetzle floating in the water. above it a metal spider full of cooked spaetzle

@patrick_h_lauke looks really good for the size of knife and “spätzlebrett” you used. If you’d like some spätzle-tips, let me know.

Oh god, cursed idea; storing your SVG UI elements as strings in local storage, that you stuff into the DOM via JS, so that you get the benefit of "caching" like they're an img src, but also the ability to target and style in CSS because they're loaded on the page as actual SVG.

Essentially loading SVG assets you often want to theme with CSS as a browser-stored package. Instead of needing to dump raw SVG in HTML, or do icon-green.svg icon-red.svg etc.

jfroehlich,
@jfroehlich@mastodon.social avatar

@mattwilcox TIL that you could use the use attribute of svg: instead of an <img> you do &lt;svg&gt;&lt;use href="img.svg#my-path" style="--my-prop: ..."&gt;&lt;/use&gt;&lt;/svg&gt; and in the svg file you do &lt;path ... style="fill: var(--my-prop, #fff)"/&gt;. It id to the path/group is important or it won't show anything. Would that solve the caching/styling problem for you?

Say you have:

&lt;label&gt;  
 &lt;input&gt;Text for input  
&lt;/label&gt;  

Can I detect with CSS on which side of the input the text is, and apply the required margin just there?

jfroehlich,
@jfroehlich@mastodon.social avatar

@joelanman @sarajw not to target the text imho.

jfroehlich,
@jfroehlich@mastodon.social avatar

@sarajw yea, no, because you can't target the text explicitly (as far as I know) - please enlighten me otherwise. That's why I group label + input in a <p>

If folks could refrain from comparing no-build-step Web Components (oranges) to build-step Component Frameworks (apples), I would be very happy.

Feel free to compare no-build-step Web Components (oranges) to no-build-step Component Frameworks (oranges) though.

@zachleat so, why are you writing a build step for html then?

TIL.

When you see ‘tge’ in a post you can quickly translate it to ‘the’ as it was originally written in fat fingers, a language many of us have to cope with.

Carry on.
