Web Witch 🔮 Stephanie Stimac

A year ago I received my book, Design for Developers, after working on it for 3 years. Since then it's been translated and published in Russian and German, and over 3000 copies have been sold. I wanted to make visual design accessible for developers and I'm happy to say I've accomplished that.

It’s hard to decide what part of this story on Marissa Mayer’s new startup is most loathsome, but this “women need a wife or, in other words, a digital servant” construction makes me want to flip over an actual table www.nytimes.com/2026/10/25/s...

I just shipped CSS Custom Highlight Universal Selector! Coming in Chrome 158. With ::highlight(*), you can write a shared rule that applies to every custom highlight instead of repeating the same styles for each name. See the Blog post: blog.seokho.dev/development/...

Attended day 2 of my astrology course and y'all. I met another person who lived in Seattle for 8 years, after meeting someone else on day 1 who also lived in Seattle. Only about 20 of us in class. What are the odds! Also I can't wait to write a blog post about how AI is heavily ruled by Uranus.

Are we sick from a cold or has our bathroom remodel/demolition stirred up mold spores that are making us sick? Who knows! Because the symptoms are the saaame.

Dipping my toes back in speaking. 👀 Love a local meetup 🫶

😷💀🫩 glad my daughter recovered so quickly from her illness but Jhey and I have been knocked tf out.

Imagine my bewilderment when what I thought was an AI chatbot was in fact a human on the other side lol

I see your light/dark mode and raise you seasonal mode.

Me sitting in day 1 of my astrology class thinking I’ve escaped tech and any mention of AI when my instructor mentions change and upheaval related to AI and a particular planet

Me after finally dropping my 9 month old off at the childminder's at noon and taking a moment to myself.

My child is dropping a nap and today was an absolute shitshow

Current Status

The pipeline of my child got sick, therefore I get sick is not a pipeline I enjoy being apart of.

Me at the end of an emotionally trying day that was also full of long meetings: Okay I'm going to try and work on this demo for work...that involves writing some technical focused content...no really it's the perfect time to try and do this at the end of the day. My brain:

The finding of a childminder for Chloe has not been filling me with joy.

Hmm all the documentation about Designing for the iPhone duo is app focused. No mention of web (yet hopefully).

And now there is only 1 little froglet left 🥺

Berlin has been on my mind a lot. A trip back is due.

Things we love to see: how you're using and testing out Servo. "Embedding Servo in a retro gaming handheld: no keyboard, no mouse, no compositor" www.reddit.com/r/servo/comm...

A smol frog was spotted near the makeshift pond. I think they are indeed around 🥹

It was actually quite an eventful summer. (And look at me! I had time to write a blog post) blog.stephaniestimac.com/posts/2025/0...

I only have 4 froglets left in my little makeshift pond. The others have hopped away (I think and hope). I don't know what would be picking them out of there but I hope they are safe and turning into big frogs.

Come the fuck on!

I can’t do this this week. Now Tim Curry?

I am so sad about Dolly Parton 😢 Also...his time must be coming up surely.
