Many executives I come across are under the misguided assumption that Scrum is some magical tool that conjures more productivity out of staff, rather than taking responsibility for removing obstacles their teams face.

Finally got myself a ‘new’ phone today, it’s an absolute banger.
No, it’s not an iPhone 15 Pro Max, it’s a Samsung A51 for #webperf testing and it scores less than half an iPhone 7 on Geekbench 😬 you can feel the input lag even during device setup!
@bramus reading through the Virtual Keyboard shenanigans and your name pops up a lot. Firstly, thank you for trying to make some sense of it all / standardise 🙏
Is there a reason there's no viewport unit for this? (kinda like a modified svh) or has that idea been proposed/rejected for some reason?
Unless I'm missing something, it seems overly complex to change how the viewport behaves across a whole site just for the occasional situation you need something to float above a keyboard?
If you're building animated dialogs/menus, you should be building them with this and transition-behavior: allow-discreet, workarounds/hacks should only be used where absolutely necessary as they will rapidly become deadweight.
Accept where we are today, but build with the near future in mind.
CustomStateSet is going to be enabled in Firefox by default 1 – another great platform feature (basically custom CSS pseudo-classes) that'll be available in all browsers 🎉
@duffeh do you mean to detect whether a flex container has had to wrap it's children or similarly detecting whether a child within a flex container has been wrapped (i.e. line 2+)? In either case, I'm sure you could, but you'd need Resize and Mutation observers so tread lightly with performance.
@ksylor thanks for highlighting I’d sent a DM publicly 🤦♂️
That was the last part of a new talk summary I’m prepping for Smashing Conf / Front Conf.
My new title is “Our Websites Need a Lifestyle Change, Not a Diet”
It’ll be a similar focus on the Web Platform to my perfnow talk but I’m gonna go a little deeper on INP and convincing people perf is a problem, given the audience is more of a broad spread of specialisms.
@bramus sorry I'm consuming your time today, but you might be able to save me a day of research on Scroll-driven Animation:
Do you know if there's a way to effectively detect whether a position:sticky element is currently stuck? e.g. if I have the element half way down a page, I want the animation to start when it hits/nears the top of the viewport and finish Npx after that?
