@bkardell.comSometimes I see these very convincing, clever, probably hard to detect scams - but very often it is pretty low effort and I bet it is a lot like mass mailings in general in the fact that the hit rate being low doesn't really matter, as long as it's wide enough?
@bkardell.comThe web needs interactive lists - @codingchaos.bsky.social

@bram.usReposted by @bkardell.comRemember Internet Explorer’s “Page Transitions”?
Well, they’re back, thanks to the View Transition API!
→ Blog post: brm.us/page-transit...
→ Demo site: page-transitions.style
The project leverages IE’s meta tags so browser support is not limited to Modern Browsers™ but also includes IE 5.5–8.0 😆
@bkardell.comYes! Keen to see what conversations happen...

@bkardell.com @evan.cosocial.ca.ap.brid.gy WDYT? Does this sound like something that you'd be interested in?
@bkardell.comIt's wild to me that when I am using a website and see that it's using nearly a gb of memory when my first computer had 16k, you know?

Here's a web app where you can rank the Interop proposals you care about, giving us data we can use to prioritise feature development.
@bkardell.comI really hate that so many news sites make it impossible to know what parts of the page are story vs ads, or where the story ends... I find myself scrolling through garbage wondering where the rest of the story is, and eventually decide it just doesn't even exist.
@bkardell.comI like that @keithamus.social keeps trying to carry old things across the finish line. It's such a shame that so many thing fizzle after so much work and good ideas. The web needs more (paid) people doing this.

@bkardell.comToday that I read "AJAX" and it felt odd, and I realized that I don't use that term anymore. Is it still widely used?
