$100 reward to anyone who can render a $1 bill on a webpage at actual size (as measured on the screen) without knowing the device. Serious.
(This is a revival of an identical challenge I posed back in 2013 that still remains unsolved.)

Twenty five years ago today I started the #Safari and #WebKit projects at #Apple Computer.
Which means Safari is now old enough to rent itself a car. But let's not speculate about my age.
I'm still sad I can't use Safari on my Windows PC. Alas, I lost the battle to keep it there. But at least WebKit's DNA seeded or influenced most browsers we use today.
And I'm proud of that impact. Along with the wonderful team I built who made it all happen. Here's to another 25, friends.
Cheers. 🥂😊💖
Twelve years ago, I started a draft for an article. I never published it: there were a few cross-browser issues, and the idea was raw and unpolished. I have many drafts like this in my archives. Sometimes, something new interacts with one of these older ideas and leads to something interesting. This article is about one such case: a hacky technique that allows us to pass some data from CSS to SVG and use it to adjust colors or almost anything else.
I think I'll start using #css scope in production. The key (for now) is:
- Global styles provide a solid baseline
- Scoped styles enhance
Which forces the question: how simple can a baseline be? How much can we do with global patterns? How many styles can be optional? Different projects will draw different lines, but I like forcing the question.
Progressive enhancement is only difficult when we decide *everything is always essential* because design has become a static target.
