Scott V 🇨🇦

This is how I was already describing it, but positively & letting out a sigh as I stare out the window.

One thing I’ve made an effort to do is when having a language picker to put that language, in its own language. English, Français, Español, Deutsch, etc. I don’t know why the web hasn’t been standardized like that.

Counterpoint: use system font stacks so your site loads faster and each user gets the default for their OS, feeling more familiar to them.

I was already barely hanging on, but cancelled today because I can’t justify this price.

Before the ICE fears, before the tariffs took effect, he threatened Canada with the 51st state. That was enough for some of us to not step foot in the US for the foreseeable future. Lots of other better countries for travelling.

There have been 25 years of products that claim to be the solution of visual editors for the web. When you look at the output and it’s terrible or convoluted, you lose trust in the project. Locking into vendor classes, or inlining all styles are examples of not trusting their output.

Movie you’ve watched more than six times with a GIF. No Star Wars, Star Trek, Lord of the Rings, or Marvel stuff.

The Digg revival can’t come soon enough

The one thing that it has proven useful to me is “refactor this in vanilla js and remove the jquery dependency” on old code.

A web utility for resolving combat phase in Star Wars: Rebellion. There were some other GitHub projects out there but didn’t have a nice front end

London ON Municipal did ranked voting once (before provincial conservatives banned it) and it resulted in a conservative mayor. BUT it felt transparent and fair, so it wasn't anger about vote splitting or strategic voting causing the unwanted result.

Voting Projection showing 36% vote for Liberal Candidate and 34% for NDP candidate, suggesting liberal as the strategic vote

VoteWell website saying London Fanshawe riding strategic voting is not necessary.

Polling aggregate from 338canada showing Conservative having 3% chance of winning the seat.

Results showing Conservatives winning 40.7% of the vote, liberals losing with 30.4% and NDP with 27.6%

When the polls and the strategic voting guides basically say "don't worry about it", it really dampens the effort of the anyone-but-conservative movement. #canadaelection

Make a sequel to "Ken Griffey Jr. Presents Major League Baseball", that is like a Pokemon Snap photography game inside ballparks.

The Spy Who Loved Me maguffin is a microfilm that they discover vital information of the villain through a sloppy transfer.

"Play with ai playground" is not a key setting you need to change on your iPhone

Did lots of the conservative old people die in Covid, but the liberal old people were more careful? Is that a significant enough stat to explain why CPC is losing the elderly vote?

I used Digg through all the iterations, I even still liked their moderated news aggregator attempt. But if they can take everything they learned and make reddit/Digg feel like 2010 again, just like bluesky did for twitter. I’m so in.

I’ve been using the beta for over a year and I’m a big fan of what they’re doing at Pierre.co . This off-the-wall homepage is just the fresh air in web design that I love to see.

Wrong answers

Your outtie never uses !important to override styles

It is funny that this has basically been my job description for over a decade, and I've had all the other various titles in that time. I've also had the title Audio Engineer without an official engineering degree, I guess Design Engineer without the credentials shouldn't be a big deal either.

I just want to thank you for your use of cartograms on this game, as well as your maps sections. I wish more news organizations would use them rather than the "land doesn't vote" maps that are everywhere around election time.

Make a Batman like Adam West and a James Bond like Roger Moore.

It seems so possible to turn car dependency around if it weren’t for the bad opinions from most of the population here. youtu.be/4uqbsueNvag?... #ldnont

It's funny that since Logitech bought Blue Microphones, they're lumped in with peripheral manufacturers. But the Blue Bottle was a high end $5k mic, and the Yeti was just them going cheap.

Unofficial HTML logo idea along side the official Javascript and CSS logos

And here it is with the official siblings

Black on Orangered (Passes WCAG AAA),
Dinish Heavy Italic (CSS logo uses Dinish Condensed Heavy), Splitting the vertical into thirds, using the angle of the italicized letters to turn the square into a 6 sided shape, an upgrade from the old 5 sided shape (Okay, this one is a bit of a stretch...)

Just riffing an idea

I found a free game called Disc Brick (apps.apple.com/us/app/disc-...), that is just a generic breakout clone, but there are zero ads, coins to buy, or upgrade popups. It has been so refreshing to just mindlessly break some bricks and try for high scores.
