When you login to an app / website on a new device and it doesn't ask you to verify the device via a code sent by email, what do you think about the app?

I immediately think that this app has low security standards. Maybe I am exaggerating, though.

I'm glad it's becoming the standard.

I wonder how many people would update Chrome that way :D

Still, a very interesting chain of vulnerabilities.

Reminds me how often the free plan among other paid plans is greyed out or needs to be found first by scrolling down a lot. Well they gotta do everything to get the money.

Some tiny JS is hidden in the markup, though. It would be interesting if this works without JS ๐Ÿค” (and input of type range).

I got these accessibility warnings when I started with Svelte. I learned a lot from these warnings and also made a full accessibility course at some point - since then I never got any such warnings anymore. I completely forgot they exist. They seem to be a good introduction to the topic.

That just sounds too familiar from tech ๐Ÿ˜†.

Sometimes I apply a "git mindset" to real life. Fixed one thing? Good, let's commit it (pause)! Noticed something bigger? Let's start a branch! No time now? Write an issue for later!

Yeah sure cannot be more nerdy, but it helps to not get overwhelmed ๐Ÿ˜Ž

That sounds very dangerous to me? So yeah, definitely in a dev container.

Ah, yet another good reason not using placeholders (there are several more, such as bad contrast).

It always strikes me why people want to manually write minified code that is built using an extra library instead of writing expressive, readable code that works out of the box.

Ok. Why isn't it the default? I assume backwards-compatibility? But couldn't there be a way of upgrading to a certain "version of CSS" in the future? For example, I would also like to have a version of CSS in which flex-wrap: wrap is the default, the current default value being almost always wrong.

Optical Illusion with CSS #4 ...

I also made a few optical illusions with CSS a while back. Such as this one:

Very nice effect, will read the article tomorrow!

We can also have an *approximate* CSS-only solution by doing that trick where the body is covered with a grid with many cells that update a custom property when hovering.

I think it is better to have all the settings right there but collapsed by default. And these fields should have defaults already set up.

I know the general purpose (it's written in the docs well) but as I mentioned I never saw a use case (running in production - of course I know minimal examples) where snippets are really better than components.
