Breaking Out Of The Tetris Mindset - Christian Heilmann @ Beyond Tellerrand Conference, Düsseldorf 2017

Tetronimos by Christian Heilmann

The Beyond Tellerrand Conference keynote by Christian Heilmann resonates with me, much.

I'd never thought being seen as a 'conservative blocker on the right', but obviously, when it comes to the foundational layers of building stuff for the web, I find myself more on the right side of Chris' block chain (although the 'square' would describe my attitude best).

Again, this talk is very much worth your time, and don't forget to read the corresponding blog post, which goes deeper into the topic.

The Secret Life of Comedy - Espen Brunborg @ Beyond Tellerrand Conference, Düsseldorf 2017

This is my favorite talk from this year’s Dusseldorf edition of my favorite conference. Which was brimming with great talks, and to be fair, this “this is my favorite yaddayadda” is highly personal, and a short survey among attending friends showed that one person’s highlight didn’t impress another one and vice versa. Which is the secret sauce of the Beyond Tellerrand mixture (aside from the wonderful Tobi Lessnow of course).

So do yourself a favor and watch all of of the videos that already are online for your viewing pleasure.

I like this talk by Espen Brunborg ...

CSS Grid Support - Hello Opera

Well, to be honest, I hadn't Opera on my watch list, so it slipped my attention for a while. But, Opera, too, already has CSS-grid support. :-)

CSS Grid Support - Safari now haz it, as well

Ja tschakka! Anfang des Monats Firefox, sehr kurz darauf Chrome, dann Opera, jetzt Safari -- es tut sich mächtig was in Sachen CSS-Grid.

Nachtrag: Das Update auf iOS 10.3 hat dem dem dortigen Safari ebenfalls CSS-Grid beigebracht:

Poster Rock – Malleus Rock Art Lab

Gestern hatte ich die Ehre und Gelegenheit, mit unserer Basssport-Gruppe in einer Galerie aufzubassen. Die Untergrund-Galerie in Neu-Isenburg hat eine Ausstellung zu "Icons Of Our Pop Culture", und neben Fotos von diversen Musikern, zu denen ich Affinität verspüre, gab es auch Grafik und Drucke diverser Machart... aber für mich noch interessanter, in einer Ecke waren eine Reihe von Drucken/Plakaten, die eigentlich nicht zur aktuellen Ausstellung gehören. Und da waren einige sehr SEHR schöne Motive von Malleus darunter. Ich bin ja ein großer Freund der Siebdruck-Poster und habe mittlerweile ...

CSS Grid Support - Chrome now haz it, too

Uh baby. Nur einen Tag nachdem Firefox einen in Sachen CSS-Grid Support vorlegte: Chrome konnte das natürlich nicht auf sich sitzen lassen, und so ist heute der CSS-Grid-Support im neuen Chrome 57 gelandet. Grid it while it's hot. :-)

Yescss!

CSS Grid Support - Firefox haz it

Das wohl spannendste derneueheissescheiss Feature für moderne Weblayouts ist gestern einen Schritt näher an die normalen Webnutzer rangerückt: Firefox unterstützt in der nun aktuellen Version 52.0 CSS-Grids! Und Chrome wird das auch noch im März hinter dem "Experimental" Flag hervorholen.

Darauf warte ich schon seit über einem Jahr, denn CSS-Grids machen so viele Problemchen, mit denen die werte (Frontend) Webentwicklung in Zeiten der Cholera Verunsicherung mobilen, also in Zeiten, in denen niemand mehr verlässlich sagen kann, welches Gerät mit welchen Eigenschaften denn nun gerade auf der ...

On Design Tools and Processes - Viljami Salminen

For the past year(s) I’ve been chasing for answers. Looking for new tools, thinking about design processes and figuring out what design really means to me. At times I’ve felt so disconnected with our pro­cesses that I’ve wondered if my career choice was right.
For a field rooted in the fine arts this period of change has been increasingly hard and is about to get even harder. We’ve moved away from designing static pages to creating digital systems of components, but we’ve done that mostly by using the same static design tools like Illustrator, Sketch, or even Figma.

Resilient Webdesign - Jeremy Keith

Jeremy Keith has published a new book, and anyone who's enjoyed one of his recent talks about the build-in robustness of the core web technologies, and how we managed to cripple it by designing with the wrong focus, might want to read this.
I certainly do, this is very much up my alley.

With a title like Resilient Web Design, you might think that this is a handbook for designing robust websites. This is not a handbook. It’s more like a history book. (…) You won’t find any code in here to
