🎨 The State of CSS 2026 – Join the Survey!

Dev Sk — Thu, 04 Jun 2026 13:00:00 +0000

The State of CSS is an annual developer survey that tracks the latest trends in CSS — from features like Flexbox, Grid, Multi-Column to paradigms like CSS-in-JS.

🗓️ This year’s survey runs in two windows:

April 8 → May 8 (results on May 12)

May 15 → June 15 (results on June 30)

💡 Why it matters:

Helps the community understand how CSS is evolving

Highlights what developers love, struggle with, or want next

Supports inclusivity by financially backing creators and organizations like Codebar

👉 I invite my community to participate and make your voice heard: stateofcss.com/en-US

Let’s shape the future of CSS together!

🔒 Google Chrome Adds Session Cookie Theft Protection for Everyone

Dev Sk — Tue, 02 Jun 2026 13:00:00 +0000

Google has made Device Bound Session Credentials (DBSC) generally available in Chrome — a major step forward in account security.

👉 What it means:

DBSC cryptographically binds session cookies to your device’s hardware security chip (TPM on Windows, Secure Enclave on macOS).

Stolen cookies become useless to attackers since they don’t have the private keys tied to your device.

Rollout is automatic for all Google Workspace customers, Workspace Individual subscribers, and personal Google accounts.

Admins cannot disable it — ensuring protection is always on.

💡 Why it matters: This directly counters infostealer malware like Lumma and Rhadamanthys, which exploited stolen cookies to bypass MFA and hijack accounts. With DBSC, Chrome makes cookie theft attacks far harder to succeed.

💸 AI is too expensive — and the math doesn’t add up.

Dev Sk — Mon, 25 May 2026 05:20:40 +0000

Big tech has poured hundreds of billions into AI infrastructure, yet the revenues aren’t keeping pace. Startups burn cash, hyperscalers sink deeper into capex, and enterprises struggle with runaway token costs.

The uncomfortable truth: AI margins are thin, costs scale linearly with usage, and profitability remains elusive. Without a breakthrough business model, the bubble risks popping under its own weight.

👉 The real question isn’t “How powerful can AI get?” but “Who can afford to keep it running?”

⚡ TSRX – A New Way to Write UI in TypeScript

Dev Sk — Tue, 12 May 2026 04:30:00 +0000

You can think of TSRX as a spiritual successor to JSX — the same idea of embedding UI directly inside TypeScript, but with its own flavor.

✨ What makes TSRX different:

🌀 Control flow, scoped styles, and locals are first-class syntax in the template (not squeezed through expression slots).

🧩 The language stays aware of them all the way through to the compiled output.

🌐 It’s framework-agnostic and interoperable — today it compiles to React, Preact, Ripple, Solid, and Vue, with more to come.

📦 You can import .tsrx modules from JS, TS, and TSX files — and it just works.

👉 In short: TSRX keeps the mental model of JSX but evolves it into something more powerful, flexible, and future-ready.

🚀 New in Chrome 148: Three Features You Shouldn’t Miss

Dev Sk — Sun, 10 May 2026 04:00:00 +0000

Google Chrome continues to evolve, and version 148 introduces powerful updates for developers:

1️⃣ CSS name-only container queries – Query containers by name without needing a container-type.
2️⃣ Lazy loading for video & audio – The loading attribute now works for media elements, aligning with img and iframe.
3️⃣ Prompt API with Gemini Nano – Direct access to on-device AI for text, image, and audio inputs, with response constraints via JSON schema and regex.

These changes make front-end workflows more efficient, improve performance, and open doors for AI-powered web experiences.

🌐 The End of the UI

Dev Sk — Wed, 29 Apr 2026 04:44:14 +0000

🌐 The End of the UI: Why Salesforce Headless 360 Changes Everything for AI Agents

For years, business software has been all about the user interface — dashboards, forms, and clicks. But Salesforce’s new Headless 360 changes the game.

Instead of relying on screens, it opens up data and workflows through APIs. This means AI agents can work directly with Salesforce — updating records, running campaigns, and handling customer journeys — without a human clicking around.

Why this matters:
AI-first operations: Agents can take care of routine tasks automatically.
Flexible integration: Salesforce connects easily with other systems, no UI redesign needed.

More human time: Teams spend less effort navigating menus and more time on strategy and relationships.
This is the start of a UI-less enterprise era. Your CRM doesn’t wait for you to log in — your AI agent already knows what to do and gets it done.

💡 The question is no longer “How do I use Salesforce?” but “How will my AI agent use it for me?"

✨ Did you know Git has a hidden gem called Git Worktree?

Dev Sk — Mon, 27 Apr 2026 05:14:26 +0000

Most of us switch branches by stashing changes, checking out, and then losing track of what we were doing. But Git Worktree makes this so much easier.

👉 With worktree, you can check out multiple branches at the same time, each in its own folder, but all connected to the same .git repo.

Why it’s useful:
Keep a long build running while you code a new feature

Review a PR branch without disturbing your main workspace

Test deployment scripts across different branches side by side

The best part? No extra setup. It’s already built into Git — yet many developers don’t even know it exists.

If you’re juggling multiple branches daily, Git Worktree can save you time and headaches.

9 OOP Design Patterns You Must Know

Dev Sk — Sun, 04 May 2025 11:54:44 +0000

9 OOP Design Patterns You Must Know

A-Creational Patterns

Deal with object creation mechanism to decouple the client code from concrete classes.

Factory Pattern: Centralizes object creation logic and returns different subclasses based on input

Singleton Pattern: Ensures only one instance of a class exists and provides global access to it.

Builder Pattern: Constructs complex objects step-by-step, allowing optional configuration.

B - Structural Patterns

Help compose classes and objects into larger structures.

Adapter Pattern: Allows incompatible interfaces to work together by translating one interface into another.

Decorator Pattern: Adds new behavior to objects dynamically without altering their original structure.

Proxy Pattern: Acts as a placeholder for accessing another object.

C - Behavioral Patterns

Focus on communication and interaction between objects.

Strategy Pattern: Allows selecting an algorithm or behavior from a family of interchangeable strategies at runtime.

Observer Pattern: Enables a one-to-many dependency so that when one object changes state, all its dependents are notified.

Command Pattern: An object encapsulates all information needed to perform an action or trigger an event.

Over to you: Which of these patterns have you used?

What is an AI agent?

Dev Sk — Wed, 30 Apr 2025 11:38:58 +0000

What is an AI agent?

An AI agent is a software program that can interact with its environment, gather data, and use that data to achieve predetermined goals. AI agents can choose the best actions to perform to meet those goals.

Key characteristics of AI agents are as follows:

An agent can perform autonomous actions without constant human intervention. Also, they can have a human in the loop to maintain control.

Agents have a memory to store individual preferences and allow for personalization. It can also store knowledge. An LLM can undertake information processing and decision-making functions.

Agents must be able to perceive and process the information available from their environment.

Agents can also use tools such as accessing the internet, using code interpreters and making API calls.

Agents can also collaborate with other agents or humans.

Multiple types of AI agents are available such as learning agents, simple reflex agents, model-based reflex agents, goal-based agents, and utility-based agents.

A system with AI agents can be built with different architectural approaches.

Single Agent: Agents can serve as personal assistants.

Multi-Agent: Agents can interact with each other in collaborative or competitive ways.

Human Machine: Agents can interact with humans to execute tasks more efficiently.
