Today I learned about “slopsquatting”. What a word. @webdirections.org #code2025

Drinking cocktails and talking about fonts is one of my life’s joys! 😄

@elly.lol immediately after the talk I realised the answer to your question! You can use size adjust in font face to adjust roboto. There is no reason you can let size adjust multiple fallback options to match your first choice font

Either A.I. is an essential part of the job, in which case it's reasonable for candidates to use it and reasonable for employers to assess the skill of candidates at using it, or it's not.

Whenever I see someone give a talk about CSS I always get reminded how awesome it is! It’s always getting better and solving problems in simple ways! So underrated for what it does!! (Great talk by @5t3ph.bsky.social about Modern CSS at @webdirections.org )

Caught a great talk by @ghuntley.com at Code Leaders @webdirections.org
He talked about the future belongs to people who can understand and work with AI. If you're not picking up these tools, you're gonna get left behind.

In Melbourne for @webdirections.org Code and Code Leaders! 👋✨

I miss the days, not long ago, when popular excitement in web design & dev was centered around the craft and clever patterns that highlight their accessibility, resilience, and performance. Automation and magical artifacts always had attention and a business case. They aren't what brought me here.

So was I!

Nice to see features supporting the use of CSS Grid being implemented into Figma. #config2025 Hope to see more people using CSS Grid in the future as a result!

Visiting SF for Config! Looking forward to all the sessions! #Config2025

So looking forward to seeing your session!

Oh really. Uggh

Can someone move Buy Nothing groups off Facebook so I don’t have to use it anymore please!?

I was scrolling through TikTok and came across a fashion video - long story short TIL that people don’t know what wingdings looks like and that there are multiple versions. Then I wondered if that’s normal and I’m the weird one?

This is one of my favourite talks about Accessibility! Definitely worth a watch!

Oh that’s neat I didn’t know that was a thing!
