Linear() Is Not Linear

View Transitions: The Smooth Parts
Now that cross-document view transitions are gradually making their way into modern browsers, now seems like the perfect time to explore them, if you haven’t already. They are, in fact, surprisingly straightforward to implement. And just like we’ve seen with modern images, v...
Ten facts about me
As I write, it is the late evening. I am getting ready to go to bed. The room is illuminated by fairy lights. I have been trying to go to bed at more reasonable hours of late, but I just saw the ten pointless facts about me blogging challenge and felt inspired to write someth...

Adding AVIF and WebP Support to My Craft CMS Site
Five years ago, I wrote about AVIF: A New Image Format (back then). Since then, I’ve implemented WebP and AVIF support on numerous client sites for considerable performance improvements – but my own site was still serving JPEG, PNG, and GIF images only. So it was time to fix...

I purchased a Royal typewriter from a charity shop today. When I got home, I was delighted to find that there was ink ready to use. Shortly thereafter, I started writing.
Typewriters and labyrinths
This morning started as many this year have done: should I get up and explore, or stay in bed for one more hour. The warmth of bed, especially as the days get cooler, is comforting. But I know how great I feel when I get up on time and start the day. I am trying my best to ge...
