  1. 📝 I wrote about a little @​mixin I’ve been finding a lot of use and simplicity in recently that I'm calling the Sassy Lobotomised Owl: chrisburnell.com/article/sassy-lobotomised-owl
  2. 📦 Put together a plugin for @eleven_ty that combines 11ty.dev/docs/plugins/cache/ and Webmention.io and makes it (what I hope is) far less complicated to add cached Webmentions to your Eleventy website. chrisburnell.com/eleventy-cache-webmentions
  3. Nas at the O2 - feeling real 90s
  4. 📦 Packaged up a bit of SCSS I’ve been happily using into a thing called Bowhead (it’s a whale, but I totally swear the filesize is tiny) and I’d love your feedback! chrisburnell.com/bowhead/
  5. If you’re like me six months ago and unsure about taking the plunge into SASS and task automation, read why I did it: chrisburnell.com/articles/lets-look-back
  6. 📊 Wrote about caching webmentions, generating a collection of popular posts, and riding on the shoulders of giants on my @eleven_ty site. chrisburnell.com/article/time-to-cache-up/
  7. Do you use :link in your CSS?
  8. I’m addicted to making pens on @CodePen. Wrote a blog post highlighting a few I’ve penned recently. chrisburnell.com/articles/a-slice-of-heaven/
  9. This is seriously amazing. It deserves way more recognition than it has; @ContraReloaded mesh together some incredible talent and synergy. youtube.com/watch?v=pYgQEjcosP0
  10. 📝 I wrote about a method I’ve been using to map SCSS variables to native CSS variables whilst providing a fallback when tying it all together with a @​mixin. chrisburnell.com/article/variables-for-both/
  11. Had the joy of visiting the Bond in Motion at @ldnfilmmuseum a few weeks ago and got to see this bad boy DB5 in all its (blue-tinted) splendor.
  12. Don't need to support IE6… Christmas came early this year! :')
  13. Throttle back on your scroll events and watch out for the IntersectionObserver! chrisburnell.com/article/crossing-guards/
  14. I love reading and learning about new browser features—h/t @MicheBarks for css-irl.info/exciting-times-for-browsers-and-css/—and I was recently inspired to build something to track features important to me that was easy to use, understand, and maintain. No more fanfare, here it is: chrisburnell.com/feature-watch/
  15. @GitHubCopilot What's going on here? Copilot generated "real" data which claims I'm the author of something I'm not? @lindsaykwardell/1593297955842588672 Furthermore, could you NOT generate code that just arbitrarily links to my website? (404 or not) Unless you want to pay for my hosting.
  16. Fractional pixels in CSS are a bit of a mystery to me. I tried to make some sense of them, and... well, I tried. chrisburnell.com/article/shoot-for-the-moon/
  17. One of the best things about @webstandards is the day after, when you have hours of juicy upgrades to make to your codebase 😁
  18. Couldn't be happier with how #SotB18 turned out this year. It was an honour and a pleasure to be involved in organising such an incredible event. Massive thanks to all of our speakers, attendees, sponsors, and supporters. We couldn't have done it without you.
  19. Overjoyed to be celebrating the greatest milestone of my life today. Eight wonderful years with my best friend, girlfriend, partner in crime, and love of my life, Rachel. Stoked for the next byte!
  20. On its own: 5/5. In the forest: 6/5.
  21. “I went to the woods because I wished to live deliberately, to front only the essential facts of life, and see if I could not learn what it had to teach, and not, when I came to die, discover that I had not lived.”
  22. At my first Homebrew Website Club meetup! Planning how to roll my own micropub endpoint... #hwclondon #indieweb
