Eric Made a polyfill to allow the `content` property to be animated in Safari, it's a hack job but a fun one; Link, video & CSS it runs off here twitter.com/oldnew... The goal was to make the script require no extra work from the dev, just include it. Built to scratch my own itch for my portfolio in development

🏃‍♂️ Lucian Marin Do you split the stream in 3 parts then draw them on each phone?

Eric Yup, with some clever timing tricks.

😀 Tom I've gone three weeks without watching any TV shows because I'm moving. I don't particularly miss them. I could download and watch them, but it would be a slight hassle for the next three weeks. Maybe I'll see how long I can go without watching any TV shows.

Eric I only ever watch TV shows with the housemates or unless its a series like Fortitude which I've followed for a while. Its bizarre getting the furious TV Licensing letters through the door expecting me to watch Live TV.

Eric Being back at uni is great, working too. I'm getting so much done and so unexpectedly successfully too. Caught another break in life, which is sweet. It's great to enjoy your work.

🏃‍♂️ Lucian Marin You should get a new domain for it. Also, I can't edit your doodle.

Eric At the moment you can only start from scratch, I'll introduce the editing others feature though. And I'm looking into the domain issue, money is tight atm tho ):

Eric Should an editing suite for a publishing platform strive to look like the content presentation it produces?

🏃‍♂️ Lucian Marin It depends on the content, but it should be user friendly.

🤔 John Thanks, I forgot about DesignerNews completely. And great point about the blog, I'm still considering what form / topics I can commit myself to writing regularly on before anything goes live.

Eric DN is great but always seems such a waste of potential, the site always feels just a little empty. Perhaps you should write a few articles in draft before putting a platform for them online?

🤔 John I'm working on a new portfolio website, hoping to combine some microblog, html experiments, etc in one place. What are some of the best portfolio sites you've seen?

Eric I always try and keep an eye on DesignerNews, you get some good portfolios posted there regularly. I'd advise against having a blog unless you're committed to posting regularly on it. Too often there's portfolios with absolutely dead blogs which don't come off well imo.

Eric The dedicated GPU in my 2010 MacBook Pro has failed and now I have to force it to never change from the intergrated one. Really unfortunate and very frustrating.
