Love your work Josh!

A Framework for Evaluating Browser Support • Josh W. Comeau Lots of exciting new features have been landing in CSS recently, and it can be tough trying to figure out if they’re safe to use or not. We might know that a feature is available for 92% of users, but is that sufficient? Where do we draw the line? In this blog post, I’ll share the framework I use for deciding whether or not to use a modern CSS feature

Really enjoyed @joshwcomeau.com sharing his mental framework for deciding when a feature's browser support is "good enough" to use in production.

Given the incredibly fast pace of new CSS baseline features these days, this is helpful 🙂

Can't wait for #DDDPerth tomorrow! It's the 10th anniversary, my 7th time attending and first time speaking🥳

Excited to be sharing some of my favourite new CSS features with everyone!

Typeform input announcing [object object] in screen readers A solution to an unusual Typeform bug where form labels are announced incorrectly for screen readers.

I wrote a blog post about it in case someone else is ever searching the web for answers

I got to use the new `text-wrap: pretty` CSS today.

Where have you been all my life 😍😍😍

Center all the things!

CSS align-content property can now be used outside of flex and grid. Huzzah!

Good news! Determined the issue was caused by bolding of the text. This created a <strong> tag node where typeform is expecting a string.

Screengrab of browser dev tools showing aria-label as "[object object]" in the DOM

#a11y friends! Anyone know a work around for a bug with @typeform where radio button labels in a radio group are announced as "Object Object" in screen readers?

Implementation is an embedded iframe.

Kyoto Crowd Cams (Live) One page that includes all the tourist live stream crowd cameras in Kyoto. Know the best time to visit to beat the crowds!

Love that the city of Kyoto has live streams of tourist hotspots to gauge the crowd level intensity before you visit!

Whipped up a site to view them all together on one page for easy checking back at different times of day 😁

Today I learned: Most browsers ignore autoplay being turned on for a video embed if the sound is not muted. Nice!

Love “Thoughtful opinions, calmly suggested” as an alternative to “Strong opinions, loosely held”.

Great keynote by davidwhitney.bsky.social kicking off #ndcSydney ❤️

Good luck with your talk Simone!

Just landed in Sydney for #NDC ✈️

Looking forward to seeing everyone!

Doing a "yes and." We know that AI models are easily prone to bias based on the data they are trained on.

How could we possibly expect products to be inclusive, accessible, and equitable if we're doing fake research with fake people built with biased data?

Hey Jess 👋 I've just joined and still figuring out it. Currently trying to recreate my old tech twitter feed!
