A few weeks ago, I was... "What an amazing opportunity! Let's go to Zurich for the last SCL of the year! I'll only be there for 36 hours, but YOLO!”

Also me when the alarm sounds at 4:30AM and my toddler didn't fall asleep until midnight: "Why am I doing this?"

On today’s lightning-fast trip, I’m rolling with my brand-new backpack.

Look closely and you’ll spot that the design is based on eleventy.config.js from 11ty/eleventy-base-blog by @11ty.dev

I know, I know! I basically own the coolest backpack on the planet 💅

Ya os corrijo yo el titular, @elpais.com: Muere James Watson, quien construyó su fama (y su Nobel) sobre el trabajo de Rosalind Franklin que nunca reconoció.

De nada.

Did I just purchase a $100 phone? Absolutely! to see how badly many websites perform in the wild.

If your site is only fast on a flagship device, you're excluding millions of users. Stop designing for luxury! Emulators lie, low-cost hardware shows the truth.

✨ It’s that time of year! The State of JavaScript 2025 survey is currently running. 😄

I take the survey every year. It’s a great way to keep up with all of the new features and APIs that have come to browsers in the past year.
