A gate can be really useful for live sound (e.g. when you’re doing a live stream) to cut out unwanted background noise or hum with low latency when you're not speaking. Boz Digital’s “Big Beautiful Door 2” even combines this with a four-band EQ for the closed and open sections and is currently on sale ($49 - 50% with BOZ-JULY-4). I just couldn’t resist… 😅

My Mac ran out of disk space (1 TB). Which felt … a bit weird and unexpected. So I opened up GrandPerspective to have a look…

Oh wait, what’s that?

/Users/matthiasott/Library/Caches/Adobe/AfterEffects is taking up how much space?

317G?!? 😅
That’s a lot of cache!

TFW you build a site with @getkirby and web platform standards (== semantic HTML, modern CSS, a little bit of JavaScript, and a dash of ARIA) and you look at Lighthouse for the first time …

Looks like industry best practices actually work. (Sorry for using my platform to ruin anyone’s day. 🥰) 🍋

☕️ I can drink coffee all day, also in the evening, and fall asleep without any problems (although my sleep quality might suffer).

🧉 But give me a cup of mate, and I’ll be wide awake until 3 am. 🪩🕺

Let’s just for a second – purely hypothetical, of course – suppose there was a podcast where some random guy talks to people from the web community about their personal websites and what they’re curious and passionate about.

Who would you love to see as a guest? 🤔

🤩 The latest Safari 26 Beta does not disappoint in terms of #CSS features:

⚓️ Anchor Positioning!
🪄 Scroll-driven animations!
🌯 text-wrap: pretty!
🌈 contrast-color()!
⏲️ progress()!
and more!

And this sentence: “We value the principles of progressive enhancement and separation of concerns.” 😉

Great work, @jensimmons and everyone else involved! 👏
