Pretty cool new way to handle color in CSS. The gist as I understand it is it will give more reasonable and expected results as you lighten and darken a color. Additionally, it’s an expanded color space (P3 color?) which means, if your monitor supports it, we can use more colors. Neat.

So often in my own job I am asked to estimate effort of something similar to what we have built before. And I get so much push back about how “easy” something should be. But we often fail to account for the unknowns, and fail to explain clearly that the 10% difference is the difference between a 1 day task and a 2 week task. This article does a great job of explaining that.

Great way to include meta tags in a Rails app. I’ve done this in a very similar way, but this article does a great job of explaining the why and how.

The IndieWeb is a people-focused alternative to the “corporate web”. Build your own website, control your own data, post to your own site. Syndicate to the wider web. It’s pretty neat, I am starting to tinker and integrate into my own site.
