    @yizBoi Good! I am looking forward to reading through it on the rest of my time off.

    @arcadesdude That's what I thought. My family is not techy whatsoever.

    @TechnoTrumpet could iron on a couple of 00s there to make it work 😂

    @arcadesdude I realized just now that the text is white, and the class should be #thisTeeText. At least it is camelCase.

    @TechnoTrumpet ah right. But it is centered and not left aligned ha! Ah well better than display: none;

    @arcadesdude yeah, that too. I am just ignoring the errors, it's the thought that counts.

    @yizBoi oh, and welcome to devRant! Merry Christmas!

    @Jakuho Not the same though. It sucks compared to hand written notes.

    And we as developers stare at a screen enough as it is. Looking at a book makes for a nice change of pace.

    @TechnoTrumpet Very nice presents!!! You got some good books. The shirt is entirely correct and you are mistaking.

    First of all its an ID selector not class. You want to set defaults on a high level and do not want to put it on every text container element. Just like font, color only effects text. Use background-color for filling.

    Also, font would technically be monospace. But sick shirt regardless! 🎄

    @TechnoTrumpet 'JS the good parts' is in my opinion *the* best advanced js book out there. Very good choice!

    to the css stuff: it very much is left aligned. It makes sense to not name it, teetext, that would be useless boilerplate, the color property always describes text information. This has nothing to do with the background-color.
    Minor complaint would be, that it is camelCase, best practise in css is to do it with dashes. But That's just a styleguide issue, the content it's technically correct.

    @theScientist I'm sorry, that's not my field of expertise. I can't really recommend you anything.
    I would rexommend reading the mozilla docs on specific things. But an advanced general book about css, that I don't know.

    @theScientist "js the good parts" is a timeless book on this topic. But in the css-world are the best practises shifting right now and it will take some time until it's clear where it is going.
    Most difficult thing about css is, that everything is global and how to manage that in a large application.

    Standards like BEM, are trying to solve it. But there are some toolsets, which might will lead the way.
    It might be css-in-js, which I think is a bad choice. Or it might be css-modules, which suffixes hashes to your classes, for each component.

    But maybe it will be something completly different. A current css book, will not be able to be as timeless as it was possible in js.

    At least that's my point of view, but as I said it's not my field of expertise.

    @plusgut webconponents (mainly shadowdom) might help getting rid of the everything global problem. While giving a host of accessibility problems during the paradigm shift.

    @iamgio this picture gets me angry all the time. The left picture is a broad perspective on js, which describes lots of different topic.
    The right one, is an advanced book which mainly describes about best practices.

    @hjk101 I honestly am quite sceptical about webcomponents.. but lets wait until everything is finished.
