Jake Archibald writes that we should just not use footnotes on the web. Not use footnotes?! I love a good footnote. Or at least, I thought I did. It’s where you can stick some information that provides a bit of extra context, but would be distracting if smashed into the main text. They can even…
The developer community hasn’t wasted any time kicking off 2026 with some really great articles, demos, and insights. Firefox 147 and Chrome 144 also shipped, and while they’re not jam-packed with features, the releases are still pretty exciting for what’s normally a slow time of year, so without further ado, here’s what’s important from the…

Most newcomers to cybersecurity, and even some seasoned professionals, fundamentally misunderstand what a penetration test actually is. They envision a process dominated by automated tools, where scanners barrage a target to produce a list of vulnerabilities. This could not be further from the truth.

First corner of the new year, so, ya know: ✺◟(＾∇＾)◞✺ I feel like we should do CSS for this one. It’s easily my favorite technology thing and basically BFFs with the spirit of CodePen. In brand-spanking-new news (gnu neues?) the whole “masonry” saga is starting to come to a close. The naming is (drumroll please):…
Now, I know what you’re thinking. Yet another CSS pseudo-class… But I think this suggestion is rather cool. Earlier this year, it was proposed to add a new pseudo-class, :drag, that would enable developers to apply styles when an element is being actively dragged by the user. Currently, CSS lacks a mechanism to detect drag interactions,…
Let’s start with the hard truth you already suspect: most advice about starting a cybersecurity career is garbage. It’s either intimidating technical jargon from experts who forgot what being a beginner feels like, or empty hype from influencers selling you a dream. You’re told to “just learn to hack” while job postings demand 3 years of…

Conditional view transitions Chris Coyier showed us how to trigger different view transitions based on the URL (or…
Here is the real talk: your giant GitHub folder of 500 tools, your Kali box, loaded with all the extra packages, and your bookmarks folder, full of the latest lists of Top 10 Hacking Tools? They do not make you a pro pentester. They are merely a fine security blanket. You are getting confused between…
