Spent some time fixing a #css issue which bugs me with most implementations of sticky stacking cards; Scrolling is often imprecise or jumpy, so you usually end up with cards unsatisfyingly overlapped... Unless you add a little "wiggle room": svelte.dev/playground/7...

I followed a creative itch and learnt about SVG paths. It was hard to find the motivation today, but I'm pleased to have done *something*. Take a look :) #svelte #webdev svelte.dev/playground/a...

Also shout out to @joshwcomeau.com. Their exceptional SVG articles inspired me out of the day's funk.

Inspired by a recent Posy video - I wondered what would happen if you Gaussian Splatted a selfie video. Seems that @jawset.bsky.social Postshot seems to get quite confused, tries it's best, and creates something wonderfully trippy as a result.

Solved: Use Blade::renderComponent($item) to properly render a component you instantiated yourself.

Bonus: Use "withAttributes" to manage the component's attribute bag programatically.

Working on a menu system and I'd like to compose the it as a heirarchy of Component classes. Sadly, instantiating them yourself causes errors to be thrown on render, due to no $attributes being set.

Maybe Laravel is telling me I should be handling more of this logic in the view...

#laravel people, do you use the Context system much? I've not found myself reaching for it since it's addition, but maybe I'm just missing a trick.

I improved this weird clock! It has a different colour for pm, hours and minutes move gradually, and nothing animates backwards on minute / hour changes, much nicer. That happened because css animating from 1 turn to 0 turn doesn't take the "shortest path". The solution... Only ever increase!

The time is 3:27:49, as you can clearly see by this clock I just made with a few stacked conical gradients and a mask. I've always enjoyed abstract and hard to read clocks.

Starting off my year learning how to type again. I've modelled my layout on my 60 key ortho's, and I'm tweaking things every day still until I can iron out the little snags from losing another row of keys. Still, enjoying the process! Beautiful little keyboard. #zsa

If you've got a custom domain handle and created a bsky.social account to reserve your old one. Here's what you need to do: Delete that reserved account. Claim it on your main account by switching your handle to it. Move back over to your custom domain. That'll reserve the account.

Sure, mate! Here's some example Translatable enum traits, how they might be used, and a bit of a writeup in the readme! github.com/mister-simon...

Should be of interest for any #laravel people, or generally anyone who uses a lot of PHP Enums. Enjoy!

Reminder, make dumb joke projects too. Not everything needs to change the world.

Began prototyping some little clay frog friends to give away as wedding favours. Also, my first time experimenting with DAS air dry clay. Do you have a favourite or any suggestions? #art #clay #frogs

I made lil animations every day in September for #septembit #art challenge, and a svelte site to showcase them septembit24.simonw.xyz.

Feels good to learn a new skill and prove to yourself you can commit to a big project and see it through.

I hope your Sunday is as relaxed and restful as these guys. #rabbits

Just wait until you fall down the rabbit hole of split / ergo / programmable keyboards... I'm happy with my ortho-matrix board, which has genuinely changed how I code and my mentality around work. But now I really just want a zsa voyager (an even smaller split keyb) for my next step.
