The Epstein email website racked up a $46,485.99 Vercel bill

Everyone said

1. Use Cloudflare
2. I could host this on a VPS for a ham sandwich

I dug into the site to see what could be causing this and if it would be cheaper or even possible with 450MM page views

Thought y’all would enjoy.

Yesterday over on x:

They removed dim mode because the overhead of CSS variables was too much

AI will skip coding and write binaries directly by end of year

Someone on reddit posted a demo where CSS truncates text from the middle.

They didn't post the code, so here is my shot at it with Flexbox

did bluesky get botted?

there is something off about this design - it's the vertical text alignment

this new CSS feature just made aligning text 100x easier

Here’s a recreation of Wes’s demo that also shows the “Inset-Modified Containing Block” (IMCB) when hovering an anchored item. The IMCB is shown in hotpink.

codepen.io/bramus/pen/r...

Within that IMCB, you can use align-self / justify-self to position the blue box within it.

(Why)? does CSS anchor not have a position-area for the inside corners?

You need to switch to a totally different approach using inset values if you need that.

As far as I understand position-area is a helper for common uses. Must have a reason?

did something change with CSS anchor position-try-fallback?

My demos where the tooltip flipped inline don't seem to work. Other demos seem to flip, but not flip back when space is available

I challenged my two friends to order a pizza with code.

CJ reverse engineered the GraphQL API

Scott built a Pizza MCP

and I built a voice agent that can make calls

These displays are so good.

Been running the 4:3 BenQ for about a year and they just sent me the 32” to replace my big bezel LG 32”

Colors are great and text is super crispy

The badges at GitHub universe this year are nuts!

This Lando Norris website is insane

I dove into the code and broke it all down. Some really neat 3D effects along with scrolling and next level animations
