It’s unfortunate that this name was used. There is a W3C community group called OpenUI ( https://open-ui.org/ ) which has been around for close to a decade, working on improving UI…

I will get around to fixing this. An oversight. Apologies.

Right. The average score is under different test conditions. Obviously this game is a little silly version with very little accuracy to the lab testing, but hopefully it gets peopl…

JND is an average. A lot of people will do a lot worse. The measure, as I understand it, is also under different test conditions, while this is a game where people are on their own…

It’s not executing JS. The names map to JS methods but both the HTML and JS call into C++ (or rust or swift whatever the browser is written in). Arbitrary JS code execution cannot …

Author here. I am not affiliated with Google. My current employer is GitHub, and this was incubated in the OpenUI working group. Open source & the open Web are still very much aliv…

BroadcastChannel is a better solution for a couple of reasons. Service Workers are better at intercepting network requests and returning items from a cache, there’s some amount of …

Thank you for providing the detail I was scant on.

I’ve been working on https://webcomponents.guide/ with some fellow experts in order to improve the documentation side of things. Hoping to offer guidelines and best practices to li…

That’s what CSS parts and slots are for. Your component can style its own boundaries, provide parts to allow customisation, and use slots to inject components that are styled from …

There's hope for React yet: https://github.com/facebook/react/issues/11347

Was a poor attempt at a joke that perhaps didn’t carry :p

I don’t recall saying old technology is bad. I was more trying to say it served its purpose at the time but as websites have gotten more complex we’re still relying on this one sin…

For large applications with many thousands of pages, or many thousands of engineers working on the same system, name collisions happen. It’s not just throwing “random css” into the…

I felt the “considered harmful” style of titles have been overused that no one would reasonably consider it anything but click bait; and so used it as ironic-click-bait.

Naming collisions are a pretty real problem when you get to building large systems. They’re a big enough problem for something like CSS Modules to exist (explained further down in …

I considered exploring it but css selector performance just doesn’t matter with todays engines. There are far greater issues, and far better performance wins than “optimising your …
