I love HTML, CSS, and reasonable JavaScript. I’ve been writing them since 2003’ish and they’ve been paying my bills since 2005.

I’m a dad of three, husband of one, and business partner of two.

I’m from slightly-north-of-Boston, about 40-something years old, and a big fan of lunch.

@bramus Have you come across anyone using the technique you've written up here ( https://scroll-driven-animations.style/demos/scroll-shadows/css/ ), but on the x-axis?

I'm trying to adjust and utilize your wonderful code for horizontally-scrolling table wrappers, but failing to make it work.

I appreciate the YT video playlist on the topic!

My kids are getting into One Punch Man and when I catch a few scenes myself, I absolutely love the premise.

The 8 year old is having existential thoughts. On the way home from soccer practice:

Him: what was it like before I was born?

Me: we had your brothers, everyone was a bit younger, etc.

Him: no, I mean, what was it like? Was everything just black?

Me: oh, are you asking what it was like for you? You didn’t exist.

Him: [ the biggest “wtf” face a kid can make ] I don’t get it.

Me: yeah, you didn’t exist before you were born.

Him: that’s… that doesn’t make sense.

The 10 year old and the 8 year old are playing Monopoly a few feet away.

8 year old: "You owe me $200."
10 year old: "I don't have $200!"
8 year old: [ silence ]
10 year old: "I don't want to sell some of my properties!"

Reminds me of another child.

Back in the days of Twitter and now here on Mastodon, I wished for a switch I could toggle that had two states: "all retweets/boosts off" or "all retweets/boosts on", and I bet I'd use that switch at least a few times per week.

The existing option—on or off per person—is nice, but I seem to be someone who is (or, is not) in the mood to see boosts globally.

Somedays I want to see what you want to promote from those I don't follow, other days I only want to see what you're writing.

My wonderful spouse is on the other couch having an issue with 2FA and she’s already looked at me, twice, like it’s my fault.

I think I've mentioned this here before, but it's been a while so here I go again:

Looking for advice/thoughts/tips on a scenario:

My dad has a website built on Squarespace. He also has a Square account that he uses to sell physical goods, in person, at craft fairs. He's now aiming to sell those physical goods online.

I’m of the (uneducated) opinion that it's probably smart to keep both the in-person and online transactions in Square.

Square does offer an online store product, which we could utilize.

@sarajw In all of your plantar fasciitis trials, did you land on a shoe brand/model/etc. that you loved? I’m in the market for something and wondering if there’s something better than what I’ve been buying (Gel Kayano, by ASICS).

Today someone was able to get inside the locked building that my office is in, walk up to the second floor, look past the very obvious my company name that’s on my door, step inside and say “Hi, is this [name of local insurance company that’s actually block away]?”

In a Slack thread where we, for some reason, were rhyming things with Clint Eastwood:
