I’ve accepted an invitation to speak at Smashing’s (Online) Conference Meets Style Sheets. It’s free on Wednesday, May 6th. I named my talk In-N-Out Styling. Long time CSS evangelist Chris Coyier will talk about how you can style things on their way into view on a webpage, and on their way out. Of course, with […]
I was at a school function the other day where the 2nd graders performed a bunch of Aesop’s Fabels and it was great. It was a double-header with 3rd graders who then read prepared reports on famous people. It was cross-disciplinary thing as the kids brought props from design class, costumes from performing arts, and […]
I mean… it’s not really, of course. I just thought such a thing would start to trickle out to people’s minds as agentic workflows start to take hold. AI agents are already up in your codebase fingerbanging whole batches of files on command. What’s the difference between a CMS taking some content and smashing it […]
Jerod Santo: After 13 years, 1042 podcasts, 452 newsletters, and countless friends made along the way… it’s time to say goodbye to The Changelog. I shipped my final News last Monday and Adam shipped our Friends finale yesterday. Huge congrats Jerod! Heck of a legacy.

In the first few minutes, Ruby says to me, “This is like The Giving Tree“, and by the end, I was like, “OK, you’re right.”
I like how Nolan paints this two-sided picture of AI coding. The worst fact about these tools is that they work. They can write code better than you or I can, and if you don’t believe me, wait six months. You could abstain out of moral principle. And that’s fine, especially if you’re at the […]
Cool little aside in Marcin Wichary’s How to shoot a screen using a board of keys: Acorn 8, a graphic app, has a delightful screenshotting feature parked under ⌘⇧7 that does something incredible: it takes a screenshot, but does so in a way where windows are separate layers, grouped by app. It’s amazing; you can […]
