Hi, I’m Laurence. I’m a Glaswegian software engineer using open web standards to create fast, responsive, accessible websites. I’m also a music-loving vinyl junkie and table tennis nerd. This is my online home, where I play with code and share thoughts on the web, music and life.
A nice modern resource listing the now huge range of CSS properties on one page. There’s a neat search with autosuggest and each listed property links to a page with a short description plus MDN browser support data.

There was a heavy whiff of nostalgia about this gig for me. Jeff Mills is currently on a 30th anniversary tour of his mix album Live at the Liquid Room. I bought that album on cassette tape back then and was blown away by it. I subsequently first saw him DJ at the Arena in Glasgow in 1996. Since then I’ve experienced Jeff doing his thing many times and in various places around the world. His sets are the stuff of legend!
Manuel sensed a general misunderstanding of what an interactive element is and what focusable really means. He wasn’t totally sure himself either, so did some research. It’s a long post but the summary is that:

But prefer applying it to semantic elements rather than divs.This was a weird, mixed reading experience for me. It’s a short book and it’s good – it had me locked in really quickly and I was finished after a few nights. But it was an uneasy read.
This episode of The Question is – like they say during the conversation – one that doesn’t yet have any ready answers. Right now it’s just important that we’re asking the question and starting to move forward, establish goals and build vocabulary.
