I've just relaunched CSS Demystified!
Rebuilt from the ground up, on my own custom platform, and here to help you start writing CSS with confidence 😊

Happy Friday! We just published a new blog post —
A WebAssembly Interpreter: Part 2
→ wasmgroundup.com/blog/wasm-vm...
In the first post, we wrote a small #Wasm interpreter from scratch in JS. In Part 2, we extend the interpreter to support local and global variables.
A few months ago, I said something about AI using the legacy color syntax, and it turns out *a lot* of people still use it too.
That inspired two articles on @piccalil.li, and now this video as well.

Great episode, yet again (and yes I did enjoy the Break too)! To Matt’s point on “are we seeing more failures” thought, my (unqualified) comment of that we’re seeing more because there’s more happening. More total but maybe not more as a percentage of internet usage? 🤷
Blindly trusting AI output is the modern "Gell-Mann amnesia effect"
Great way to end my work-week! Thanks for keeping the road less dull, fallthrough! (Am a delivery driver)
@skriptble.me you mentioned that you've become less of a fan of Postgres and are leaning more towards MySQL…but what are your thoughts about SQLite? With each passing year it seems more and more able to handle larger-than-just-hobby-projects (assuming it's not a distributed system of course!)
I saw a bunch of hype about JJ a while ago but things seemed to have died down. Great episode and I think I'll have another look at it and see how it works!
Listening to the episode and there was a brief discussion about licenses. I’d love to hear an entire episode about the various license types and what to use when!
Thanks for another great episode! 😄
A commenter brought up that it was be useful if we could declare what type of sizing is being used on each axis independently...
I’ll be there! Anyone else wanna join us?
Me: Technology has peaked, it's only downhill from here. There's no way we can make it better.
Me after looking at the rest of the thread: nevermind...
Personally I’d love to hear a dedicated episode on hypermedia and how it could relate to APIs and versioning (see how I bright it all together? lol).
Keep up the good work!
Yeah, that’s right. #kpopdemonhunters #rumi
“I don’t like CSS” is coded speech for “I never learned CSS”
Another banger of an episode! Learned a LOT about versioning in general ABs SemVer in particular. And now I need to read the SemVer spec to see what I’m doing wrong lol!
Also, speaking of query param, I remember an episode from, like, last year you said that variable URLs are not exactly ReSTful. So wouldn't having the resource ID as query param be more ReSTful than `/resource/:id`? Mirroring something you said about pretty URLs being for people and not the machine
Follow-up question, WRT "being pedantically wrong about using HTTP verbs": can't we just use GET and POST for pretty much all API calls? If you want to query a resource you GET and any mutations is POST with a query param of the action being done.
Honestly I’ve learned a lot from you over the years. And by “you” and mean “you and the other hosts of GoTime/Fallthrough”. I’m a hobby dev so I’ve never worked on a team before but listening to y’all’s episodes feels like hanging at the water cooler
Thank you for there explanation! Love what y’all do and love your “hot takes” specifically.
Great episode! But still a bit confused on the self-descriptive message part. How does XML make for better ReST self-describing messages than JSON?
Completely on brand for @steveklabnik.com and @skriptble.me to talk about REST for two hours and still have more to say.
Is there anything we didn’t cover but you wish we had? Should we talk more about how things like GraphQL are actually quite RESTful?
It sounds like the recipe sites! 800 words of background on why this or that. Like, dude, gimme the recipe! I don't need to know the background. You're not writing a novel! lol
Instead of fixing what's broke they opted to lash out? Seriously? That's wack.

Audiobooks should be available at your local library (I use the Libby app for that)
The Codex Alera, by Jim Butcher. He was dared to make a book series from two random themes and he accepted. Was given “Pokémon + Lost Roman Legion. Made a 6-book epic.
One of my favorite all-time stories!
I'm looking at adding more pre-recorded content on my YouTube channel focused on JavaScript programming (both browser and Node) and would like to know what kinds of things you'd like to see!
