Today's cover image comes from last week's thread.

lol
hahahah really true
Stop hitting me with the truth
Teehee 🤭
It hurts
I hope you are okay 🙂
what's the title of volume I ?
I have no idea.
lolol
Css? Safari? Vendor prefixes?
Not what, but who...
27 for my site.
Steve Jobs, then.
No, really. The real mayhem began with the iPhone and its web capabilities. Like dealing with dozens of possible different resolutions, hardware resources and Internet Explorer issues, network performances and end-user demands wasn't enough, another thing came into play and changed everything once again.
It just happened, mind you. I don't really blame Steve Jobs.
I’m currently rewriting our WP theme starter to get away from Sage and all its arbitrary nonsense…using pure PHP and HTML. The only dependency is going to be Tailwind, because the juniors would revolt if I took that away. 😂
Personally, I can take it or leave it. It does make some things easier, but I still write a lot of vanilla CSS…but I’ve been doing this since sliced images in a table was state of the art…
Here's a blast from the past (aka
_archive/ancient/
). Some cutting edge HTML 4.0 Transitional circa 1997. 4 layers deep of nested<FRAMESET>
elements slicing up the UI. Still works great as long as I shrink the window down to 640x480ish.Great, the only dependency you're leaving is the one you should prevent your juniors to use...
Eh, it’s not worth the fight at the moment. I’m trying to wean them off of it, but it gets the job done, and at the moment, that’s the most important thing.
And there’s a bit of “tabs vs spaces” in the argument for and against Tailwind…and it’s not an argument I feel the need to involve myself in.
@besworks that reminds me…this is the oldest site I’ve built that’s still online…this was done in like 1996-1997 as far as I can remember. And it’s pretty much the way I left it when I left the company that built it originally…

Nice! Classic.
I actually recreated the old image map behavior in a Custom Element.
That’s very cool! If it didn’t need JavaScript, it would be perfect for a project one of our juniors is working on…restricted environment, crazy stupid platform, limited to pretty much html and minimal inline css. We can’t even upload images to the platform, we have to send everything that isn’t simple code to the client to upload.
I got one from 3 or 4 years old the password is "Uni" (case sensitive)

Hey, @besworks can you get me that code? Can you put the code in GitHub?
That’s awesome! 🤘🤘
the backend-mindset of React devs?
Angular 2+ too. It has Jakarta EE concepts like dependency injection.
Front-end is easy once you accept that that 2% of users probably never cared about websites looking the exact way you intend them to and would probably be happier if you served them a plain, server-rendered HTML document.
See, this
This is something you tend to learn once you start building enterprise based applications that are only all about displaying data instead of so much beautification and compliance to excessive standards and new tech and design trends.
Front-end is easy if you put all your business logic in the back-end and back-end is easy if you put all the business logic in the front end.
That's the one good argument for JS in the backend, together with duplicating presentation logic if you want to render in the front- and back-end.
But tbh at that point keeping both in sync becomes an even bigger problem than implementing the logic in the first place 🤭
!!
accessibility, safari, i'm tired =))))
Accessibility is dead simple: write proper HTML and test it with an automated tool just in case. What makes it hard is the things that are already over-complicated in themselves.
Have people really forgotten Internet Explorer ?!
Not so much forgotten, more like repressed...

Today's comiCSS:
Always excellent meme template
Neutral Evil is wrong though; that should be
[class~="element1"]
;)This will live in my nightmares.
Chaotic vile 💀
TIL
@layer elements
is a thing.I created a Meme generating MCP, and wrote a post on DEV Community.😊

Dangerous!
Thank you for offering a fun Meme space every Monday!😄
hehe
Meme Monday needs to be a global holiday at this point, I always come here for a good laugh!
How’s Monday?
When i get to it this week i'll let you know :)
I always kick off meme monday by essentially pitching last week's cover and having them riff on it. I try to keep the prompt general enough that it could go in a different direction.
This time around we get one that's either the same joke but without a punchline, or the same joke but totally deadpan and hilarious. Not sure.
Happy Monday
Hahhah!
Ha ha happened to me !!
This link is always in my bookmarks for a reason :D
Obvious he's fake 'cos he's in sprint start position, no real techie would ever contemplate doing exercise over a 9 hour coding session!
so true lol
I had an architect like that @ QAT. He ended up losing the account.
This is why the Windows clipboard history is so indispensable :D
As much as I love my MacBook as a dev machine, this one feature makes me want to use Windows…but Windows doesn’t have “Create folder from files”, which I use ALL the time, so it’s a push…
Easy windows alternative:
1) Create new folder
2) ctrl+click on all files
3) Right-click and click "move to"
I mean, easy enough, right?...
I mean, you’re not wrong, but on Mac I don’t have to make the folder myself or tell it to move the files…maybe (ok, not maybe… 🤣) I’m lazy, but the Mac way just seems easier…
Oldie but goodie
git push --force-with-lease origin feature_branch
👀 anyone here guilty of doing this to us?
I made this meme as part of my first tech post about switching from Postman to Bruno — couldn't resist sharing it here too 😄

Time needed to go get a bottle so you can say to the other guys, "Hold my beer..."
TutorialsPoint.com for me
always gets me hyped seeing meme mondays pop off - you ever notice the best memes kinda just happen outta nowhere?
😂😂😂
meme monday always cracks me up, tbh the internet just feels better with running jokes. you think meme stuff actually helps a community stick together or does it just keep folks entertained for a bit?
Meme Monday always lifts my mood, honestly. You ever felt a meme just hit way too close to home lately?
Absolutely, and I have shared a few which do excactly that 😆
Love Meme Monday - memes make my Mondays way less boring.
A solid way to start the week :)
Gotta say, Meme Monday always makes my day better.
Pretty cool way to start the week tbh
First time meme monday had 100+ comments?!
Not the first ever, but we're on a roll this week 😄.
I think we'll break the old record because I'm not sure we ever got much more than exactly 100.
love meme mondays so much tbh - gotta ask though, you ever worry the jokes cross a line or is it all just part of the fun
Real tough😂
