I really don't see this happening. There's a very small minority of people who are like "I don't see what's so good about hooks, class components are just fine" but I think these are largely the same people who originally went "I don't see what's so good about React, jQuery is just fine"

Calling useMouse at pretty much the root of the application (in your Layout component) means that you're re-rendering the entire page for every mouse position update.

Since the only thing that needs to re-render when the mouse moves is the circle element, you could move rendering code for that element and the useMouse hook call into it's own component, and pass the ref from the Layout component to it as a prop. It should be a big performance improvement.

Changes to overButton state will still trigger a re-render of the entire page, but considering that occurs far less frequently than mouse position updates, it's a lot less of a concern.

shot in the dark question, does anyone know why I can do this in Chrome but not Safari

TypeScript code:

// full screen button
document.getElementsByClassName('ytp-fullscreen-button')[0].click();

In Safari, nothing happens but in Chrome, it correctly goes fullscreen

Hello fine people of the internet. I have a CSS question! I know you're all dying to see it.

https://jsfiddle.net/df0g4rek/1/

I've extracted this simplified example from an existing code base! Div `container` is whatever, it's just somewhere on the page. Div `outer` and div `inner` are both thanks to this 3rd party library that replaces native scrollbars with custom ones. I've removed the javascript code from the example, because it's not relevant.

Other than the fact they exist and my client wants to use that library. They are customizable so if those are the cause of the problem by all means tell me.

Within this scrollable area, there's div `background` which has to be there and is the focus of the issue. And div `square` which acts as placeholder content. Ideally when you scroll to the right, div `background` would extend all the way across. But it does not.

It's like the browser stops bothering to render it, "oh nobody will ever scroll to the right." it says.

I've heard about running Wordpress 'headless', but hadn't really considered it because i'd still have to maintain a Wordpress install. I assume that process doesn't change at all even if the presentation layer is decoupled, right? Do most people just run the Wordpress installed locally/not on the public internet?

Does this look OK? I'm colorblind and I don't want to sear anybodies eyes. A lot of color's look much duller to me. I tried to go to the web critique thread in the OP but that's been dead for 6 years. I'm trying to optimize for phones because about 70% of my viewers view on mobile.

Is there a way to fight back against the time wasters? Like, if someone contacts you and you respond with interest that's a half contract that they will ask you a follow up of some sort. This is basic social stuff. Can we reprimand whichever agency is hiring these people?

Or, get off LinkedIn which is a spam network. I did ages ago, people just pay to be able to send out mass messages. Take them less seriously I suppose..

I think it would depend on a few things. What kind of prices do you think you can fetch? The good old days are over, small websites are not fetching great prices anymore, and Squarespace is gonna end up costing you more than $10 for a domain and $0 to host a site on Vercel/Netlify. Secondly, what level of customization would you need to offer? For example if someone says "yeah that's great but I really need it to have X feature and I'll pay double for it" can you make that happen with Squarespace? I think those are the two major concerns I'd have with picking Squarespace vs. basing a business around something like Astro + free and low cost themes.

But yeah if I were going to start a small website building side business I would probably simply not start it because the amount of hustle required to make not very much money would be huge I think. If you have programming skills there are probably lower effort ways to make side money.

No one is doing anything original. Find a site or template they like and recreate it without thinking. Unless you’re actually in the creative space, responsible for branding and identity and trying to be industry leading, everyone just wants to be someone else.
