Cleared

Monthly verdicts on HTML and CSS: use it, hold, or skip

What it does

Every month, browser features quietly finish 30 months of support and become safe everywhere. Nobody announces it, so old fallbacks and polyfills outlive their purpose by years. Cleared is a monthly email with five verdicts at most: what just became safe to use, what to hold off on and exactly why, and the code you can finally delete. Verdicts come from browser test data (web-features, wpt.fyi). The full archive is free and ungated.

A monthly newsletter on HTML and CSS in the browsers: the features that just became safe, the fallbacks you can finally remove, and a verdict on each one. Free.

Every month I check what changed in HTML and CSS, browser by browser: which new arrivals are cleared to use, and which fallbacks you can finally clear out. I keep the few that actually matter, and give each one a verdict : Cleared, Hold, or Skip. I publish the result in one email you can read in five minutes. Next issue: Monday, September 14 . One email a month, unsubscribe in one click. Check your inbox. Click the confirmation link and you’re in! First issue Monday, September 14 . webstatus.dev  (opens in a new tab) will tell you that the lh unit passed 30 months of browser support in May. It won’t tell you that Safari still resolves 1lh against the wrong value whenever the line-height…from cleared.page

    Hello HN! I found that picking out plausible but diverse skin tones for my digital art and game development projects was kind of difficult, and I got curious about if there was a way to define a color space that made it easy. I've built a color picker and procedural generation algorithm based on the space as well as a bunch of other fun js features and demos throughout the page that use the equations. If you find it interesting, I have lots of explanations of how I built it and what properties the space has. The methodology might be a bit shaky, but hopefully the result is as helpful for…

  • I trained a 125M-parameter transformer to autocomplete piano performances in real time (~108 notes/sec on an iPhone 15). The idea is basically GitHub Copilot or Tabnine, except instead of prompting it with code, you prompt it by playing a few notes on a MIDI piano. The model then continues what you played, entirely on-device. The app is free if anyone wants to try it. Happy to answer questions about the model, training, Core ML, or the many things that didn't work.
