From years of being bored, unsatisfied, or struggling in various jobs and industries, I finally feel like I have come home.
I'm so happy to join an industry with such brilliant, interesting, and gloriously nerdy people - I mean this in the best possible way!
I have attended both Beyond Tellerrand Düsseldorf and CSS Day 2024 and, wow. Huge thank yous to the organisers, speakers, and to the many warm and funny fellow attendees I had the joy to socialise with.
This is my church.
To the people with #CSSDay FOMO - you're not missing out.
It's terrible, the people suck, the conversations are boring, the talks are rubbish.
CSS is lame, the web platform needs fixing with layers upon layers of JS, I miss Flash, bring back Dreamweaver, websites should be images with clickable regions.
You're fine. Enjoy whatever it is you're doing instead, we're having an awful time.
Re @stubbornella and special language within companies (her example was 🐑 for "ship/sheep it"):
People in my company in Germany react with a 🇬🇧 on any announcement of someone being off sick.
The code for this in slack is :flag-gb:
German for "get well soon" is "Gute Besserung". GB. Great Britain.
My world is complete. @kevinpowell started his talk with "Hello my front end friends!"
@stubbornella ooooh gosh I reckon we should name the hypothetical 2D masonry variant "drystone"
Omg. @SaraSoueidan's material is dense and fast and great and my brain is busy.
When the video comes out I will certainly share it.
Another note, an element with display:none; is still available to aria-labelledby. TIL.
Thanks @joshtumath for all the tooting, you are embodying the BBC - Busily Broadcasting CSS
