Ah, a low radar signature house.
Source control is a saviour for this shit. Can't count the times I've made a small change and completely fucked up the CSS in 20 other files I didn't realise existed...
I'm not good with CSS 😄
And that's why scoped styles are a godsend!
Global styles were simply always a terrible idea.
Is it odd I like this? Would actually like to live in that place.
When you design your whole project/house around the edgecase of it being easily climbable (as stairs) if it ever falls over at 45 degrees.
MS Word when you try to move an in-document image three pixels to the left.
My brain is itchy now.
Thanks for reminding me about the outdated as fuck HTML/CSS template I need to continue updating tomorrow at work. Might just drink another glass of gin tonight.
Being a programmer sounds like so much fun.
It is until you have to work for someone else. I should have kept it as a hobby....
Not even a programmer, I'm just a lowly support engineer that barely gets over minimum wage. UK wages suck but this is why I don't try very hard anymore. I have job security by not being incompetent. Only risk of losing it is if they get rid of almost everyone.
When you want to remodel for cheap so you buy all the returns, overstocks, and clearance items at home depot and just make it work
It's going to start assimilating the neighbourhood soon.
!important This is my work nightmare, but for side projects I use elm and elm-ui and I just don't need css. So nice, so stable, so robust, so eeeeeasy to maintain. It's genuinely a delight. Boss nopes out when he sees all the whitespace, though, as if semicolons were the only thing keeping things sane.
I haven't heard of this. I make my personal websites from scratch in html and css using notepad++. I should probably modernize....
I use it for web apps rather than plain pages, and you can certainly use it with your existing css, and you can roll new css in a clean and non-clashy way with elm-css, but, like I say, elm-ui lets you RELIABLY build your ui.
And here I thought no one still used ridge/groove borders.
U guys have CSS?
Nested tables is the best I can do...
When you switch to Linux and can now pay for windows.
