I’m interested in HTML, CSS, and making the web less annoying. My name is pronounced ˈshe-meh.

I’ve started watching political talk shows like an old person, but at least I do it more efficiently than boomers because I watch at 2x speed.

h* elements have margin by default!? Who knew.

@westbrook HTML-only documents with headings and paragraphs would not be very readable if browsers did not add vertical margins by default.

An embedded Facebook post that renders and functions without JavaScript. This is the web as it was supposed to be. We have the technology to embed interactive content from one website on another website. It’s called HTML and CSS. And yet, it’s such a rarity on today’s web, that when it does happen, I initially don’t believe it. I have to double-check that JavaScript is indeed disabled in the browser tab. And then I just look at it in amazement. What a beautiful web that we don’t have.

I remember when I first saw the scrollbar-gutter property, I thought that it was a very clever thing. It was not. I wish it was.

Basically, I want a “stable-after-shown” value or something:

  • If there is no overflow: do not reserve the gutter.

  • Once the container ever overflows during the lifetime of the page, show the gutter.

  • Now, if the overflow goes away, the gutter will stay.

@kizu Why are you fine with the content width shrinking when the scrollbar is shown, but not fine with the content width growing when the scrollbar goes away?

@kizu What do you mean by UI junk?

@timdream I’m not a fan of websites switching to mobile layout when I zoom the page too much, so I would probably find a text-only zoom option useful. The problem is that in my browser (Firefox), there doesn’t seem to be an option to increase the text size on specific websites only, like how page zoom works. I also would like to be able to use such a feature via a keyboard command (e.g., Command + Shift + Plus).

Football (soccer) but a goal is counted when the ball hits the goal post. If the ball goes into the net, it’s just a regular out, and the keeper gets the ball.

line-clamp: auto

“This CL implements line-clamp: auto, which allows line-clamping a block container based on the value of the height and max-height properties.”

Political billboards for the EU election in Germany.

Notice how with blurred vision, the magenta word is harder to read than the white words.

This political party is probably not getting their message across to some people due to the poor accessibility of their billboards.

A response to @cferdinandi 's recent post(s) on JavaScript and Web Components:
https://dev.to/maxart2501/javascript-is-not-the-problem-k4e

I know he didn't explain his position in details, so a 1800-word article sounds a little unfair, but I think dry and sharp statements need adequate context and analysis.

@MaxArt2501 @cferdinandi We need to talk more about the acceptable amount of JS during page load. So many websites load 5+ MB of JS which is unacceptable. As long as this problem persists, people with low-end phones will have a poor experience on the web.
