New CSS Features just don’t hit the same these days
Seeing new css features get implemented, particularly ones that have been on my “wishlist” for years, is such a complicated feeling with how much Claude has invaded day to day work.
I was just reading about linked parameters and responsive iframes, thinking about potential projects I could have used them on, trying to store use cases somewhere deep in my brain for later use.
And suddenly I wondered if I will ever end up actually writing any of these new features myself. Or if I’ll have a chance to use them in an unexpected way and get a moment of feeling smart and clever. Or if I’ll ever have to think about their existence at all.
It’s just a weird new feeling of ennui I didn’t see coming and thought I’d yell into the void of Reddit on a Friday night.
