I found the https://jeffhuang.com/designed_to_last/ also good. Wondering what can auto-create the different formats for long form blog posts?

Disable
user-select: none;(and variants) onbodyto be able to select text again. I like the idea of a blog post that calls out something annoying and demonstrates the annoyance inline, thoughI have a bookmarklet to enable text selection on any web page that tries to block it that way.
Here it is for your convenience. Bookmark it and give a try on the linked blog post:
javascript:document.styleSheets[0].insertRule("* { user-select:text !important }", 1);Can’t remember where I swiped that from. Probably some ancient StackOverflow thread.
WTF‽ I’m a web dev for 5 years, 8 if you count university, and I’ve never heard about bookmarklets. Why would that even begin to work?
Man, this is so amazing!
Browsers have supported the
javascript:scheme for a long time, so I guess it just abuses that.
I think its part of the joke ;)
Hes also done some crazy stuff: https://aartaka.me/this-post-is-ed.html
I can’t select the text on this article (mobile). I’m not sure if that’s on purpose or just ironic?
Most of it’s good, and I agree. He’s advocating switching everyþing to webp instead of jxl or sticking wiþ png, which is pure Google narrative and not constructive.
