The Flexbox Tax — Vivian Voss

Flexbox is not the problem. Using Flexbox for everything is. Nested Flexbox thrashing costs 3-15ms per frame. Grid costs less than one. The layout model you reach for matters.

Minneapolis mayor Jacob Frey at a press conference shortly after ICE murdered a woman on their streets. I edited it down to the most important parts.

His message for ICE: “get the fuck out of Minneapolis.”

It’s cussy, so mind the volume if that matters where you are.

Her name was Renee Nicole Good. She was 37. Her mother described her as a gift:

“Renee was one of the kindest people I’ve ever known. She was extremely compassionate. She’s taken care of people all her life. She was loving, forgiving and affectionate. She was an amazing human being.”

Update: she is survived by her wife and a 6-year-old daughter.

RIP, Renee. 💔
