@mattrambles Yes, to get to the hotel. I knew what to expect (kind of) but it was still something else… 😆

@vdvestelle It might sound weird, but I actually enjoyed it! 😁 So no and no. But maybe I was just lucky 😆

@stegrainer Thank you! I’ll add the Musée d’Orsay to the list. ☺️ And as we are staying in Montmartre, Sacré-Cœur will be unavoidable 😁

@seindal Oh, nice! I like arcs. They are so … triumphant.

@sl007 @PavelASamsonov oh 😕📚

@matthiasott@mastodon.social
@koehnlein Yes, I also heard they added lights to the tower to make it more interesting. 🙄
Matthias Ott
@matthiasott@mastodon.social
@PavelASamsonov Thanks for the tips, Pavel! The Centre Pompidou is on our list. With two kids, we need to carefully balance the amount of museums we visit, but we’ll try to see as much as possible. 😅

The relaxed part of our summer vacation ends tomorrow (😭) and we’ll head to #Paris (😍), where we’ll stay for three days.
Anything interesting to see there? Any tips? I heard they have a nice tower… 🗼😁

@SaraSoueidan Yes, I’ll do that! 🤗 I’m still trying out a few options. And I’m also a bit limited as I’m on vacation in France and didn’t take the Mac with me. 😅 I think I might use a combination of IFTTT with Buffer and @robb‘s https://echofeed.app in the end…

@sarajw @MoritzGiessmann I would like to make posting certain stuff, like new newsletter issues or links, more efficient. And yes, to reach people where they are (but not on the network that shall not be named, of course 😁). Not sure if Buffer is the right solution. Ideally, it is all automated and coming from my own site…

Here’s your reminder that the State of CSS survey 2024 is still open!
If you write CSS, regardless of your skill level, consider taking the survey.
Not only is it an important trend indicator of the web community but it’s also a great way to let browser makers know what we all care about collectively and in which direction the platform should evolve!

“I think it’s worth listening to anything Sara Soueidan has to say. That’s especially true if she’s speaking at an event for the first time in four years, which was the case when she took the stage at #CSSDay 2024 in Amsterdam.”

Newly reinvented as a variable font, it is far more versatile than ever before.”

James Dyson created 5.126 failed #prototypes before inventing the Dyson vacuum cleaner.
To be honest: when it comes to durability, our Dyson vacuum cleaner still feels like one of those prototypes. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Re Mozilla’s (unnecessary?) new logo:
Me: “What do you think? What does this look like?”
7-year-old: “A rotated broken M? A flag? A … duck? An ostrich!?”
That logo works really well, obviously … 😬😂

I’m now starting a new web design project and will once more put my current #CSS #structure to the test. Does it still work or do I have to change something in 2024? 🤔
How do you structure your CSS?
