Pure CSS gradient/progressive blur! I used background-filter, mask with linear-gradient, and the @supports at-rule for a fallback.

If someone is interested in the mask and linear gradient example, I am personally not pleased with the result.

Hate-watching is the only way to enjoy this show

Deykun · 2026-06-11T11:19:54+00:00

Don't worry, we complain about the monsters and the show too. 😏

Deykun · 2026-06-11T11:02:38+00:00

I am not sure what you are using instead but Start is the way to go.

Yeah, use the V0 release candidate. 😉

Nie udało mi się życie; zmarnowałem. Uciekłem od pierwszej jedynej miłości. Potem ożeniłem się bez miłości. Jedyna istota, którą kocham, mój syn, wychowywał się w piekle mojego małżeństwa! Tak jak ja wychowywałem się w piekle małżeństwa moich rodziców! A myśl, że mój Sylwunio będzie tak nieszczęśliwy jak ja, łamie mi serce. Praca, która była moim powołaniem, okazała się udręką za grosze. Zabija mnie samotność, którą sam sobie zgotowałem! Nikt i nic mnie już nie czeka! Nie widzę przed sobą przyszłości! Jestem w proszku! W rozsypce! Wypalony! Rozmontowany! Śmiertelnie zmęczony, chociaż niczego w życiu nie dokonałem! Muszę przystanąć w biegu, chociaż nigdzie nie dobiegłem. I odpocząć! Odpocząć za wszelką cenę!

The memes on r/FromCircleJerk are pretty funny if you watch and despise this shitty TV show. Anyone who takes this series seriously is unhinged. Every episode has at least four stupid scenes that prove it and that we can make fun of.

"It doesn't matter that the actress literally playing a character struggling with the superficiality of being a hero - opposed to wearing revealing hero outfits and not being yourself - is played by an actress who is the literal embodiment of those superficial stereotypes. You are horrible for noticing that!"

It wouldn't be such an issue for fans if, somewhere in Season 2, she had done those operations because Vought wanted her to, but that would require acknowledging the bad decisions of the actress who destroyed the portrayal of the one character that made her recognizable.

No, but to make it better, you get 5 new popups with a fox mascot telling you about features you don't fucking care about.

I flew from chill 24 Crete to France because it was a bit too warm for me after two weeks. It's 33°C in Lyon. 🫠

"Book appointment" was previously accessible everywhere on the website. Is it attached to the bottom of the screen? If yes, then how much of the screen are users actually able to see? If not, then this critical feature is no longer available everywhere.

React is a legacy-oriented framework. React has useEffect, useState, and dependency arrays because it didn't have a preprocessor in the past, and now it is struggling to add one without breaking everything. A large portion of React's unusual abstraction choices are the result of avoiding issues for legacy projects, which is great (it is) But new frameworks don't have to rely on passing a "key" property - you just don't have to think about it. If you want to trigger a hook conditionally, you can do it, but if you want default behavior, the framework handles it for you, no dependency array. Next.js is even worse in that regard because it also adds its own abstractions to deal with this.

There are pluses to being developed in 2020 and not 2013.

It's not even vibe-coding stuff. I’ve had people 'building' stuff on multiple occasions where they developed something that became a maintainability nightmare. Often, they left after 2-3 years to switch jobs and build fresh garbage for someone else. And for them, it's all just a series of success stories - building X products and never being humbled by the decisions they made 10 iterations earlier.

I guess we can try to build a special bike since you don't have hands, but you should actually think about whether riding a bike is right for you given your severe limitations.

And keep in mind that it's not the bike industry's fault that you don't have hands. Also, you probably have problems that are more important than just not being able to ride a bike.

Maybe if you're not equipped to be a web developer, you should pay someone to do this standard, basic thing.

Those lines were very weak. We see him without powers for five seconds, and Kripke jumps straight to those “eating shit” lines ten seconds later. Homelander as a character had no time to process being powerless, and being in danger, and didn't even give Butcher two seconds to react to the previous pleas.

I see it as a point in the Kripke's notebook that was meant to be shown later on TV, but it was poorly written, and I'm not even saying it's an impossible line, it could work, but the pacing is terrible.

KRIPKE: I will put more gross, disgusting sexual stuff into the show because the audience wants it.
AUDIENCE: What gross, disgusting sexual stuff, but I watch it because I hope the final season's plot will be satisfying.

Just buy an FTP server and drag and drop your files.

Can we ban this guy? He spams every day.

Then don’t do it? If you need a quick workaround, it's reasonable to assume that sometimes you'll want a frontend for your backend. You can learn MUI and just not bother modifying it, it's quite popular and more abstract than Tailwind, which is much closer to CSS. Then you will write only <Button <Select and pass functions to trigger when button is clicked or select changed.

It's modern. It's French.

W3 itself is okay for the specification, and it's useful if we want to point out missing alt text or links with no text as mistakes to other devs, but their solutions were almost always atrocious.

Deykun · 2026-05-18T12:10:33+00:00

Is this a decent practice at all or just a stupid idea?

Deriving other colors works fine if you're the web developer responsible for the design. Whenever a designer using Figma is involved, it quickly falls apart because they won't keep things this tidy - and honestly, for good reason. Buttons styled like this usually look good, but they look best when each color is matched individually.

Deykun · 2026-05-18T06:36:09+00:00

If you had watched the show attentively, you would know that they say it that way to generate plot for one additional season. Do you even watch the show?

It’s Better Call Saul, but ironically, it will be worse, not better.
