  • the title is really underselling it; as the post is very concise, i won't repeat it here but it's worth reading

  • That's what going to happen to tailwind too after the acquisition.

  • The writing quality definitely dropped after the acquisition. It's a shame, CSS-Tricks taught me so much early on.

  • Complaining that they give money to people you don't like is not a good look when you want them to give money to people you do like.

  • Tbh I can't see how any site about tooling doesn't go the way of Stack Overflow. I used to follow the latest framework and CSS articles avidly. With agents it's a moot point.

    It's sad. But rather than fight it, we should be thinking about what communities we form next, in a world where knowing flexbox tricks isn't a flex.

  • I am concerned that what will happen to detailed technical write ups that defined much of the "technical internet space"? There used to be "CodeProject" (still is around probably) that used to have great articles on C, Windows Programming, Windows System programming and what not. Similar other sources on Web as well such as some TutPlus network.

    Now with LLMs, they won't gain attention and all knowledge would be stuck in LLMs but there would be no knowledge base to train the LLMs on so... would this all collapse in a decade or two?

    PS: Not anti AI rant, just a genuine open question.
