I think I finally got some slopspam comments on a meyerweb.com post from (checks again) twenty years and ten months ago. It’s possible they were human-generated, but the cheery tone is just a little too context-blind to believe it. Either way, giving me advice on RAM upgrades for my G4/500 Mac as if I were still using it seems like a red flag.

Anyway, they were held for administrator approval, which I will not be granting.

As of today, Windows 1.0 was released closer to the end of fighting in World War II than to the present.

I saw yet another “CSS is a massively bloated mess” whine and I’m like. My dude. My brother in Chromium. It is trying as hard as it can to express the totality of visual presentation and layout design and typography and animation and digital interactivity and a few other things in a human-readable text format. It’s not bloated, it’s fantastically ambitious. Its reach is greater than most of us can hope to grasp. Put some *respect* on its *name*.

One-day #CSS poll! If you have Chrome **and** Safari Technology Preview available, please visit https://codepen.io/meyerweb/pen/jEbpgEj in each, drag the slider to its top and bottom limits, see how the anchored element behaves, and then come back here to vote for the behavior you prefer. Thanks!

It’s the second half of 2025 and I still really, *really* enjoy hand-authoring and -modifying SVGs.

That’s it, that’s the toot.
