Graphics nerds - the day has come where AI has done something good https://www.digitalfoundry.net/features/nvidias-new-dlss-5-brings-photo-realistic-lighting-to-rtx-50-series

A generational leap in lighting quality thanks to models being applied to the final image - somehow they made Starfield look good.

There are a lot of concerns - how much artistic control do you surrender to the model? Whilst is works great on faces, it's not perfect on particles and effects. Right now, it also needs 2 high-end GPUs though they'll get it working on 1 by its release late this year.

A massive technological leap for graphics - and we've been hands-on with four games.

Update: I made a pen - https://codepen.io/editor/steveworkman/pen/019cd424-705c-7af9-9afc-325ad590a302

I turned the detector into a custom element that can be wrapped around <input> and <select> elements

It send an "autofill" event whether it is filled by the browser or by 1Pass. Give it a go with your password manager of choice

Autofill

Hold the phone guys, someone used the accessibility (at) maersk email address for an actual accessibility enquiry! Praise be!

Before I fall down the rabbit hole, has anyone found a good way to detect password manager autofill in the browser? :auto-fill CSS works great if the browser fills it but 1Pass/ Bitwarden gives next to no clues.

Modern CSS is no longer just about presentation. It increasingly allows us to explore interaction, state, and progressive enhancement in places that used to be JavaScript territory.

More on that in my blogpost: https://schepp.dev/posts/turning-css-carousels-into-a-theme-switcher/

(and with that post I've fulfilled my duty for 2026 😅)

Turning a CSS Carousel into a Theme Switcher

And then I have to explain why there are only 4 Indy films

After watching Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom with my eldest, I await the nightmares of hearts being ripped out, snakes living inside snakes, monkey brains, eyeball soup, being burned alive, voodoo, child slavery and falling to death into crocodiles. That film has it all
