Five Factor Testing - Custom Web & Mobile Development Company | DevMyndWhen I took my first real dev job in the late 90s, it was not common for developers to write their own automated tests. Instead, large companies depended on teams of testers, who tested manually, or were experts in complex (and expensive) automation software.

Optimize CSS Delivery | PageSpeed Insights | Google DevelopersBefore the browser can render content it must process all the style and layout information for the current page. As a result, the browser will block rendering until external stylesheets are downloaded and processed, which may require multiple roundtrips and delay the time to first render. See render-tree construction, layout, and paint to learn more about the critical rendering path, and render blocking CSS for tips on how to unblock rendering and improve CSS delivery.tagged: cssperf10-05-2017

Methods for Contrasting Text Against Backgrounds | CSS-TricksIt started with seeing a recent Pen of Mandy Michael's text effects demos. I'm a very visual creature, so the first thing I noticed was the effect, not the title (which clearly states how the effect was achieved).

Keyframe animation for UI with navigationWhen I saw the below demo I thought "neat, how'd they do that"? That may sound surprising if you knew that I wrote the API for this.
