Made a custom Tony’s milk chocolate bar: picked colors for the cover and filled it with raspberries, caramel, and sea salt 😍 Thank you Julia Miocene for bringing me there!

One day I’ll stop confusing Wednesday with Thursday 🥴 I guess, I hear Third in Thursday and this mixes up everything. Just call it Fourthday already! 🙄 Until then, I'll keep getting into trouble. My appointment is tomorrow, dammit!

It took exactly two months for German bureaucracy to allow me to change workplace 🥲 I’ll finally start working again on June 26 at Virtual Identity. I might need to learn again how to do it 🤔

Got a nice-looking 40% finger-twister, also known as the Planck ortholinear keyboard. Not expecting a productivity boost anytime soon 😅

You might be thinking, how do people use 40% keyboards? With layers! I made a custom layout for my needs with a cheat sheet to peek into. It should give you an idea 🤓

Top left: Function layer
Bottom left: Lower layer
Top right: Rise layer

It’s not easy, but kinda fun!

And yes, I know how nerdy it looks 😬

Just a quote from some spec repository I’d like to co-sign:

> Prettier tends to make some ugly formatting for HTML, so it's still excluded

Went to the Indiana Jones movie yesterday, the original version with German subtitles. The movie was all right: too many CGI faces to my taste, but Phoebe Waller-Bridge saved it. But the thing I remembered the most is the word “Fallschirm”.

So, imagine the scene: a plane full of Nazis is falling down the sky (you know, typical Indy Jones). And I see the “Fallschirm” word in the subtitles. I have no idea what it means, but suddenly time slows down, and the word “Regenschirm” pops up in my mind.

Regen… schirm… an umbrella. Fallschirm? A parachute? Yes! 🤯

There are only 5 days left to fill out the State of CSS 2023 survey. I can’t stress this enough: you only get to moan about the Web platform going in the wrong direction and browsers not implementing what you need if you submit it. Don’t blow your chance!

Let’s code again: a new social network Bluesky this time. Adaptive profile layout and light/dark theme. Come and join me on August 20 at 12:00, Berlin time. Still, only for my Russian-speaking readers, but I hope to launch another channel in English later this year. Stay tuned!

Who needs :hover when you have JS, right?

It’s been a very productive three days! Starting from Friday evening, I recorded three episodes for different podcasts and streamed a 3.5-long coding session on YouTube. Amazing! But now I’m ready for a weekend… oh wait 😳

I’m sorry, but I nearly fell off the bike when I saw it 😅

.last { margin-bottom: 0 }

Hello, old friend. The first time I met you was 20 years ago. I had to search “php array last item” to figure it out. But then IE9 supported :last-child and we had to part ways. What brought you back? 🤔

<p className={last ? 'last' : ''}>

Oh, right.
