Having now left JSHeroes, I've decided that I should provide an alternative for the JSVillains. CFP is open, please submit topics.
Coming soon: CSS Night
Seeing a lot of posts about generating OpenGraph images for 11ty posts, and suddenly realized my new approach will fail.
I generate an html page, and I just want to snapshot that page in a build step. Right now it's looking for a URL, but (obviously) the URL doesn't exist yet. That's the point.
But all the other approaches involve non-html image generation, or HTML/CSS limitations. And I don't want to do that. I just want my thing to work, please. Thanks.

@ container style(--var < 5em)
But can also compare normal values:
style(1em < 20px)
style(sibling-count() > 3)
This style function can also be used for conditions of inline if()

I watched a debate between Emily Bender and Some OpenAI Guy, and I justβ¦
- Bender: As an expert in linguistics, we have a pretty good grasp on "meaning" vs "form". LLMs are just putting words together. People will read meaning into it, but that's a lie. People will get hurt.
- OpenAI Guy: If people read meaning into it, there's meaning in it *for them*. If things go wrong, that's a user problem. Capitalism, baby.
Check mate, humanities and also sciences. Horoscopes are AGI now.
