Josh CollinsworthNew post, kind of weirdly personal-feeling one. I don't know if it'll land with you, but I hope it at least gives you something to consider.
Gareth Simpson@collinsworth That’s a really good piece. The only thing I’d disagree with is “CSS is the only language that gets blamed when the author is bad”. You are in an unenviable gang with PHP (and back in the day, Visual Basic). Languages lots of people know how to do badly but not enough people take the time and effort to do well.
I speak as someone who has always done CSS badly.
fabiosantoscode@xurble @collinsworth I find that in CSS consistency goes a long way.
If you do CSS "badly" but always in the same ways, I bet I could dive into your codebase and get to work right away.
In contrast, it's almost impossible for me to determine a good way to write CSS.
