The block editor is super powerful, but how do we bring in dozens or hundreds of external HTML and CSS patterns?

Thanks to a prod from @…, I finally fixed the issue with full-screen videos looking inverted on my personal site in dark mode.
Also, just updated my blog post on how to implement quick and dirty dark mode support in a few lines of code using CSS filters with the additional code:

Right now, @… is sharing an excellent and incredibly thought-provoking talk about the philosophy of treating styles as hints to the browser. It's so good, y'all.

Light mode versus Dark mode

It doesn’t have to be this way. Some people have very real physical reasons to need one mode over another. The rest of us are also allowed to have our favourites, or might prefer light mode in some situations and dark in others.

What if Sara said it was super easy to code up both dark and light modes at the same time? Despite Sara’s evangelising efforts, not enough people know of the CSS property color-scheme and how powerful it is.

The worst language I ever had to use is that of TeX/LaTeX. (Perl is a close second. HTML5 CSS Javascript is striving to surpass the two.)
But at least TeX lets you do things you cannot do with any other software.
The worst language IN RELATION TO WHAT IT CAN DO must be the git command line interface. Proof: the sheer number of websites that try to explain how you do even the simplest operations, like creating a branch or uploading your changes. All in vain...

My son asked for a little web dev challenge, so I tasked him with filtering a list with a few selects.
First of all: he solved it! 🥳
But when I looked at the code, I noticed that he had used HTML data attributes and was accessing them in JS via the dataset property. When I asked him about it, he replied: “Yes, I read that in a post by @… on …

#RethinkDNS has "assets.gentoo.org" (used to help CSS and images for #Gentoo websites) on its blocklists. Except that when I open the blocklists, I can't find anything that would match. WTF?
And why is it so hard to find a place to report this?! Do they only provide support for allistic people who don't mind going all over the place and asking people if that's the right place?

Better type layouts with CSS
Today, I wanted to quickly share two newer CSS properties that make it easier to create nice, well-balanced layouts. The text-wrap property has two newish values: balance and pretty. The balance value is good for headings, and tries to balance the number of characters on each line so that each line of the heading is about the same length. The pretty value attempts to reduce orphans (instances where one word is all by itself on a line).

A common talking point of CSS & separation of concerns is the idea that you can just swap out the CSS for different CSS to have a whole new design.
That’s neat and all, but the real-world need is the opposite: the HTML changes ALL. THE. TIME. Write your CSS so it works with changing content.

Holy cow this piece of custom CSS on YouTube results pages is ace:
```
ytd-shelf-renderer {
display: none;
}
```
*Seems* to get rid of the ‘recommended’ and ‘nobody also watched’ boxes where YouTube stuffs all the white supremacist shit (or in my case, videos of kids getting life sentences and videos of blisters).

This project was/is a really fun, multimedia learning experience across the board for me:
- The immediate learning about all those places.
- The actual photography/making of the photos.
- The different analog steps, like developing the film & creating the wet prints.
- Lastly, the digital workflows, getting back into desktop publishing (last time I touched it was for my highschool year book), getting more into CSS for the web page & even doing more rayshader stuff in R.

Kitten breaking change: Route handlers, etc., now take parameter objects
Just pushed the API updates I’d posted about earlier to main and to the latest Kitten release.
This change affects:
- Route handlers (all types of routes)
- `onConnect()` handlers
- The default export on main.script.js files
I’ve updated all the examples, documentation, etc., on Kitten to use the new API but if you see anything I’ve missed, please let me know.

Time-Uniform Confidence Spheres for Means of Random Vectors
We derive and study time-uniform confidence spheres -- confidence sphere sequences (CSSs) -- which contain the mean of random vectors with high probability simultaneously across all sample sizes. Inspired by the original work of Catoni and Giulini, we unify and extend their analysis to cover both the sequential setting and to handle a variety of distributional assumptions. Our results include an empirical-Bernstein CSS for bounded random vectors (resulting in a novel empirical-Bernstein confide…
