Notes
Quick notes, thoughts and ramblings.
-
The updates to NPM packages seem to be f'ing endless these days!
-
Chernobyl. Gosh! I was completely engrossed. One of the most compelling and unsettling things I've watched in a long time.
-
Aargh! Bastian Allgeier says it way better.
In practice, this dependency hell has bitten me so often already that my life expectancy probably sank by 2-3 years. You want to build a JS file? Please update Webpack first. Oh, that new version of Webpack is no longer compatible with your Node version. Oh, your new Node version is no longer compatible with that other dependency. Oh, now you have 233 detected security issues in all your node_modules but you can't fix them because that would break something completely unrelated.

Christ has existed 'from the beginning', so the Christ cannot be the same as Jesus.
-
Dabbling with typography sizing / scaling using the new
clamp()CSS function. Do like it I must say. For now, I've added it to my site to handle headings. -
If you're not failing at something then you're not trying hard enough. Failing is part of it. If you're not trying hard enough to even fail, I think you're in trouble. Cause that… you know… teaches you more.

And here I was thinking the new Dumbo movie would be a good choice to watch with my 11 year daughter…. Nope! Half way in she was asking when it was gonna finish.

Clearleft, thanks so much for reminding us that; "It's OK."
-
Gees I'm missing seeing a mate's actual face. Thanks WhatsApp and Zoom but I could do with some real human interaction now.
-
Great software is not built by great programmers. It's built by great teams
-
Appropriateness is something I keep coming back to when it comes to evaluating web technologies. I don’t think there are good tools and bad tools; just tools that are appropriate or inapropriate for the task at hand.
-
The Apollo 11 documentary movie. How the heck did this go by me!? 😮
-
Mark Price takes gorgeous photographs of landscapes.
-
I'm looking to get myself back into photography again. Specifically landscape photography. I've missed the space it used to give me. The way it helped me to look up — to really pay attention to my surroundings — to be present in the moment. Things our technology-obsessed age seems to have forgotten about.
