  • From the archives: Is CSS nesting an exciting new feature or a potential disaster waiting to happen? I note down my worries and prior experience with one of it predecessors: Sass nesting, along with some gotchas native CSS brings with it.

    Following up Andy - curious how you’re currently structuring outbound for clients, or planning to? Most agencies we see either depend heavily on manual outreach or run generic automation that underperforms. We sit in the middle - structured, AI-driven outreach that’s consistent enough to productise, but still personalised enough to actually drive replies. Let me know if it’s worth a look. Best, PS If this isn't relevant, just reply "pineapple" and I'll close the loop

  • I know I'm not a Business Leader, but I run a business. Not taking on exponentially rising outgoings with minimal productive gains is like 101.

    If your boss is chasing this stuff down like a dog chasing a butcher's van down the road, it's straight-up incompetence.
