Is this a hack? What about stack order? Fine grain control? A few more tips on using CSS Grid instead of absolute positioning. I really like the named grid area one!

I love this so much, dom order is such an intuitive stacking model, no need to think about absolute creating a new "layer group"

Grid for the win! Absolute positioning still has a space to live though

I want a little Wes avatar that pops up on my screen every time I reach for pos: absolute and remind me of this

Good follow up video Wes! Had a read on the grid and it seems there might be performance issues. Have you done a comparison of a grid page vs a normal div page?

The Liberal government just locked in their 2035 ban on gas-powered cars, but why? Climate change doesn’t check out and the grid can’t support a nation of EVs Is this more about control than climate change?

Here's a look at how the mattress physics look using my debug view. A mattress is essentially a 3x5 grid of rigid bodies connected with joints to flex, and then stacked on another grid kinda like 2 pieces of bread, with springs between them for compression

Earlier this morning on Channels Television, we discussed about the recent grid collapse challenges and the way forward. I disagree that every state should have its own grid. Centralisation of the grid is still the most efficient and effective means of delivering service to consumers. Watch all:

WHAT’S HAPPENING TO THE GRID RIGHT NOW? This isn’t just one location. New Jersey — freeway lights started flickering all at once. A full stretch… moving together. On. Off. On. Off. That’s not random. And here’s what makes this different… I’ve received hundreds of reports like this from around the world. 👇 Is this just a glitch… or something affecting the grid? #MrMBB333 #PowerGrid #NewJersey

WTF… They want control of WHAT in your home?! A woman is going viral after claiming her utility company temporarily prevented her from lowering her thermostat due to “stress on the power grid”… More like a power grab to me. What do you think, folks?

I decided to make a grid material that is always aligned with the building grid... Then I thought, why not share it? 👇LINK IN COMMENTS👇 Fully customizable: -Disable fill color (outline only) -Disable padding color (fill only) -Roundness control -Color control Perfect for cheap grid floors and walls. You can combine it with other world-aligned materials like in this video. #UEFN

Future CSS Tip! 🔮 (This one's close 🤏) You can use "subgrid" to give child elements access to a parent's grid tracks 👀 This is great when you want to make sure content lines up 🙌 Check those cards 👇 article { grid-row: span 4; display: grid; grid-template-rows: subgrid; 👈 } In this example, article uses grid but makes use of the tracks defined by the parent layout container. That makes it easier to line up content within the cards 🙏 Cool thing is, we don't even need to define the rows in the parent. We use the implicit ones from the parent. main { display: grid; grid-template-columns: repeat(auto-fit, minmax(300px, 1fr)) } This might be easier to understand with the video below that shows the grid tracks using DevTools and toggles subgrid on and off 🤙 CodePen.IO link below! 👇

Oh dear... I think I touched a nerve👀 Ed Miliband said I was ‘scaremongering’ because I asked who was responsible in the event of a blackout and what repercussions there would be. That’s because on the 2nd May our grid suffered a significant, sudden frequency loss. This could result in nationwide blackouts. Ed’s policies are making our grid more unstable, more unpredictable, and more expensive to balance. Who pays? You, the consumer. And weirdly, he doesn’t seem to know who is accountable. Ofgem? NESO? DESNZ? We need to know who is in charge and what accountability they will face for a more unreliable and costly electricity grid. It shouldn’t be this hard to answer a simple question.

Been experimenting with more shaders! This one adds a grid-like scanline effect, kind of like the Nintendo DS or Game Boy Color screens. Also, I've been working on several new enemies lately! Wishlist: #screenshotsaturday
