Last week I wrote a newsletter and then forgot to send it 🤦‍♂️ I only realized it because I was going to do a mailbag episode for this week's podcast, and to my surprise, there were no questions to answer! So umm, have any questions for me? 😆 docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1F...

What'd I miss? components know: - user stuff - device stuff - app stuff - design stuff - what stuff is in them - what stuff they're inside - etc It's amazing how much a component can know on the web, and I'm going to try and list it all out. Help me 🤓 #CSS nerdy.dev/components-c...

I missed the slide from @miriam.codes talk where she showed this as a function (+ I haven't had a chance to play w/CSS functions before) so I gave it a go! #CSSDay codepen.io/una/pen/emNvGMy @function --rounded(--d) { result: clamp(0px, calc(100vw - var(--d) - 100%) * 9999, var(--border-radius))}

After 6 years of working closely alongside @nerdy.dev I am just rocked by this news. Still not ready to accept it TBH but I stand behind Adam as one of the most genuine, talented, effervescent devs I've ever worked with. If you're hiring snatch him up before I figure out a way to get him back 👀
