How variable fonts utilize optical sizing axes to automate legibility across varying viewports and scales.

• Why it's relevant: matches terms: typography; fits Design category
• Summary:
  • The old typography is new again Back in the days of metal and wood type, when setting text involved working with actual physical pieces of type, changing font size meant reaching into a different drawer.
  • And the type in each of those drawers wasn’t a scaled version of its neighbour, but a unique design, created for that particular size.
  • Now imagine holding a small block of metal type in one hand and a large block in the other.

There are many ways to create memorable experiences.

• Why it's relevant: matches terms: web; fits Design category
• Summary:
  • I love the fact that CSS is finally reclaiming control over visual interactions, taking charge of the styling, the animation, and the accessibility exactly as it should.
  • Today, native browser capabilities allow us to move the heavy lifting away from the JavaScript main thread and closer to the GPU.
  • By letting the browser’s engine optimize performance under the hood, we save energy and processing power while building code that is robust, accessible, and independent of external libraries that might deprecate tomorrow.

• Why it's relevant: matches terms: javascript, css; fits Dev category
• Summary:
  • Grogg has a nice page chock full of examples of UI, which used to be the sort of thing that we’d use JavaScript for, but can now be done in HTML & CSS.
  • No hate: I have nothing against JS, but it has better things to do The examples are very modern, like Tabs, where the actual tabs are created with a ::scroll-marker and positioned as a ::scroll-marker-group with anchor positioning.

• Summary:
  • Ultrafast machine learning on FPGAs via Kolmogorov-Arnold Networks This post is a high-level explainer for my Master’s thesis, which involves designing hardware architectures for ultrafast inference and online learning using the Kolmogorov-Arnold Network (KAN) architecture.
  • I’ll assume familiarity with standard machine learning concepts, as well as some understanding of hardware and digital circuits; read my previous post here for the latter.
  • Please read the two papers below for more information, particularly for details on benchmarks and notable results.

The "AI overview" is its own content, not just a list of search results.

• Why it's relevant: matches terms: web; fits Dev category
• Summary:
  • The "AI overview" is its own content, not just a list of search results.
  • This is really interesting and I would love to see this set the tone for other countries (::cough UK::).
  • If enough of that wrong content defames companies or individuals, it could become a serious legal problem not just for Google but for other providers of similar services like ChatGPT, Claude, or Perplexity.

We can finally generate evidence before committing to anything.

• Why it's relevant: fits Design category
• Summary:
  • The biggest shift AI has brought to design isn’t that designers can now write production code.
  • It’s that we can finally generate evidence before committing to anything.
  • There’s a lot of conversation about AI affecting production: designers pushing code and shipping something closer to the final product.

• Why it's relevant: fits Dev category
• Summary:
  • Every time a view transition is initiated, a pseudo-element is added to the HTML element for the duration of the view transition.
  • This acts as a snapshot overlay across your entire page.
  • Each pseudo-element plays a distinct role in how the view transition animates.

• Why it's relevant: fits Dev category
• Summary:
  • For over fifteen years, Stack Overflow has been the world’s digital watercooler for human developers.
  • It’s where we go when production is on fire at 2:00 AM, where we argue over the finer points of language syntax, and where we’ve collectively built the largest peer-validated technical knowledge base in software.
  • But over the last couple of years, the nature of programming has shifted beneath our feet.
