Designers performing dark magic to create a design that appears deviously simple but is near impossible to create due to fundamental limitations of the web platform:

Been writing CSS for 25 years and still only defer to the W3C docs when I can't find the details elsewhere or need to verify them. And every time I do I think a lot about how the poor design and verbosity/lack of examples has pushed visual learners and thinkers—folks we need doing this work—away.
I often imagine redesigning or rewriting the CSS spec to make it clearer. It’s rare to find a spec that doesn’t make me re-read the same thing 10 times 😅
One of the most frustrating experiences when reading CSS specs is that they seem to enjoy adding anchor links that are anchored to the heading of the section you are in the middle of reading.

Good writeup from @css-tricks.com on the situation with "Masonry"† and whether it belongs as part of grid or its own `display` type. It's largely neck-and-neck and won't move unless some minds on either side change.

You can float an image and use `shape-outside` and it can be the same src as the actual image itself (as long as it has alpha transparency or whatever I guess).
