Please - stop doing the screenshot no link thing on Bluesky. This platform does not punish you for posting a URL. You picked up the habit from Meta apps? Stop doing Mark Z's bidding. Link ESPECIALLY to authors, reporters, bloggers, etc. where you quote the work.

I've said this before and I'll say it again: I'll take simple, readable #CSS code over clever-looking one any day.
I'm more impressed with simplicity that achieves the same result than I am with "cool, complex" solutions that produce the same results.

Want to build faster websites? Here's how:
- Learn how browsers parse, layout & paint
- Treat JS as a tool, not the foundation(!)
- Favor static HTML or server side rendering at all times
- Use Core Web Vitals alongside other metrics to learn shortfalls, improve and iterate
Then keep doing that.

ICE used your taxpayer dollars to trick out a bunch of trucks in new livery, all painted black with "ICE" and a logo printed in gold on the side (and Trump's name in gold on the back window), then shoot a rap video in DC to post on social media.

@dbushell.com if I may suggest a one liner for instanciating a web component:
customElements.define('component-one', class extends HTMLElement {})
Also, the constructor() {super()} is optional.
Great read though, thanks.
