@hdv FYI, I just stumbled upon this restaurant in Düsseldorf: https://maps.app.goo.gl/JTQEaSCVV63GkWUk8

I haven't tried it yet, but it has great reviews. Maybe something for your next visit in town?

Have a great week! 🤗✨

I got a 365 points knowledge score on this year’s #StateOfCSS survey! I have used 27 features, and knew 19 more, placing me in the top 100% of all respondents. Can you beat my score? https://survey.devographics.com/survey/state-of-css/2026?source=post_survey_share

@RickByers @bramus the latest Chrome (stable) version seems to have introduced something on Windows that leads to frequent STATUS_BREAKPOINT crashes. Is there any way of finding out what causes them?

Somebody solved the problem of truncating text with ellipsis in the middle: https://github.com/LalitSinghRana/dynamic-middle-ellipsis

Of course you need to throw React at it! 🫠

@MoritzGlantz @ginader @ErikGustafsson @DanielGoransson my plan is to pick you folks up at 8:50 at your hotel. I have space for four people. Would that work for you?

Just wrapped up recording an episode of the @podcast 🎙️

We talked about web performance, from loadtime to runtime performance, about common pitfalls and what actually matters in real-world projects.

Had a great time with Garrelt and Fabi. Thanks for having me! 😊

Finally, @zachleat and @matuzo seem to have cleared their beer debts. No more picture frame to be seen on stage for the first time in years. 🍻

#smashingconf is about to kick off. At Tuchinski! #fronteers 🥰

I think `shadowrootcustomelementregistry` just took the lead in the longest HTML attribute race:

…though still comfortably beaten by your average German compound noun 😄

Wondered why our latest podcast episode didn’t show up on https://workingdraft.de this morning. In our headless WP we preschedule releases and @11ty builds the front facing site daily. Turns out an AI bot broke the build: our log-parsing stats step choked on its UA string:

Mozilla/5.0 (compatible; Thinkbot/0.5.8; +In_the_test_phase,_if_the_Thinkbot_brings_you_trouble,_please_block_its_IP_address._Thank_you.)

"if_the_Thinkbot_brings_you_trouble" 🖕

Modern CSS is no longer just about presentation. It increasingly allows us to explore interaction, state, and progressive enhancement in places that used to be JavaScript territory.

More on that in my blogpost: https://schepp.dev/posts/turning-css-carousels-into-a-theme-switcher/

(and with that post I've fulfilled my duty for 2026 😅)

@tante @robin @timbl Good morning ☀️ I was just interacting with this event page and thought that it could be something to your taste: https://the-web-you-want.org/

@matthiasott guten Morgen lieber Matthias! ☕☀️

Ich wünsche Dir alles Gute zum Geburtstag 🎊🎁🎈 und hoffe, Du machst heute etwas Schönes mit Deiner Familie - vielleicht sogar im Schnee? 🌨️❄️☃️

Bis bald hoffentlich ❤️

@svgeesus hey Chris, stumbled upon this article about the (sad) state of HDR in games and thought you might wanna read it too: https://wccftech.com/the-hdr-gaming-interview-veteran-developer-explains-its-sad-state-and-how-hes-coming-to-its-rescue/

Funny how vibe coding is basically cargo culting baked into code.

I really like the new FetchLater API - it doesn’t just keep a request alive after a page is gone like Beacon API does, but it also handles when to send it. Beacon leaves that to you, and no window event (beforeunload, pagehide, etc.) covers all cases - e.g. mobile minimizing suspends it. Plus, you can finally send JSON with application/json instead of text/plain. And it's easier to debug too! 🥳

Would love to see it making an appearance in Firefox and WebKit too, @jaffathecake @jensimmons ❤️

If you wanna stay up to date with what the web platform has to offer - and as a front-end dev you should - then Stefan's Web Weekly newsletter is *the* source to learn from. Week after week, Stefan tracks new platform features and articles and distills them into a handy, easy-to-digest newsletter ✨

@closingtag @maddesigns da kam die Golem Plus Werbung wieder. 😭

Could also be that there is less and less people left that still have a job (robots / AI):

@hdv just read your post on workslop and I couldn't agree more! One thing I constantly run into are tickets written via AI that are either overly detailed or describe a task without taking into account the overarching picture (like project guidelines/design guidelines). I think they are good cue givers for writing tickets as they often come up with good points but you have to filter out and correct a lot.
