FED Monthly, January 2021: CSS Can Be Cool And Not Awful I Swear

Responsive Design

Basic Tenets

  1. Browsers are natively responsive and mobile-first.
  2. Layout should be effective at every size.
  3. Visibility, font sizes, and spacing, etc. should be effective at every size.

Writing Responsive CSS

@mixin cards--spacing {
// Select all immediate children except the last
> *:not(:last-child) {
@include space-stack-s;
@include breakpoint($large) {
@include space-stack-none;
// Now, also remove children that are a multiple of 3.
// Add margin between columns.

I read a bunch o'stuff in 2k17 so your 2k18 will be *kisses fingers*

Of the books I've read this year here's my verdict on the ones worth (re-)reading:

Her Body and Other Parties, Carmen Maria Machado: A collection of short stories from Carmen Maria Machado. When trying to describe it to other people I've tried "fantastical horror while trying to describe the female experience" but I don't mean that with some sort of Stephen King IT connotation: all of the stories have a fantastical element to them, and they're worrisome, but they're not out-right terrifying. The only exception to this (for me in any case) was the third story that was basically a fanfiction of Law & Order SVU. Opinions in my book club were pretty split and many hated it but I found it to be the most haunting thing I've read all year.

Also, met the author in person and she seems pretty rad. Gifting this book to a few ladies in my life this year. [Plot](https://www.goodreads

DC Recommendations and Tips

DC/NOVA Recommendations and Tips

From @helenvholmes to you 💖

I'm a Northern Virginia native, so you might find that this list is sort of skewed in a way—all the cheap eats are in NOVA, and the district list mostly has fancier places.

There are a lot of places on this list that I've actually never been to—I'm in and out of DC a lot because all of my childhood friends are in that area, so this list is always expanding. Places I can't personally vouch for are marked with a ⛳️.

Important Stuff

Get a permanent metro card for $5. If you're living there and commuting every day, make sure to register it. That way if you lose it you won't lose the money you have on the card.

Important Stuff!!

If you're nervous about traveling in a country where you can't read anything: restaurants often have menus with pictures. The train system is all doubled in English. When you get in and you're exhausted from a huge flight, I recommend Airport Limousine Bus. As soon as you get out of customs, you will see a big orange counter for the company. Just tell them the hotel, and they will drop you off right at the entrance.

Most places take credit cards, but you’ll need cash for the trains. There are normally ATMs inside the 7/11s. It's worth it to get a Suica card.

Sim cards?: You can get one at the BIC Camera Shibuya.

Google Doc with naming suggestions.

Our color variables in devtools are starting to lose meaning. For example, we have --theme-splitter-color almost everywhere, even where it’s not being used as a splitter color:

#device-submit-button {
  background-color: var(--theme-tab-toolbar-background); // we're not really in tabs, but okay
  border-width: 1px 0 0 0;
  border-top-width: 1px;
 border-top-style: solid;
