  1. “Companies have started incorporating “adversarial patterns” in their garments – carefully designed arrangements of shapes, colours and repeated motifs said to exploit weaknesses in some #ComputerVision systems.

    The designers say advances in #computing have made it easier to incorporate such patterns into commercially viable garments. Experts caution that the effectiveness of the patterns depends on the #surveillance system and the conditions in which it is used, but #NickTidball, the co-founder of the clothing brand Vollebak, thinks “adversarial clothing” could be on the cusp of going mainstream.

    #AntiSurveillance feelings are so widespread that all it would take is for a single celebrity to wear one of these garments, currently popular in the #countercultural fashion world, to a high-profile event for it to take off,” he said.”

  5. Single element, minimal #CSS (20 declarations and only that many to even out browser inconsistencies), minimal #JS (just updates a custom property value), comparison slider (original image vs. desaturated one) on @codepen codepen.io/thebabydino/pen/MWM

  6. Because this @codepen demo just got hearted and I've never shared it here before codepen.io/thebabydino/pen/Vwm

    The concept behind the XOR is something I explained in this
    @csstricks article css-tricks.com/taming-blend-mo

    (should probably redo it with view transitions)

  7. And here are cards with gradual left to right inversion: from no inversion at all on the left, to full inversion on the right. Again, minimal code, single div, no pseudos necessary, 2 #CSS declarations.

  8. Here's another set of cards with varying patterns, all created with the exact same 4 blended CSS gradients, it's just the stops list `--c` that changes for each card.

    So basically, it's again just one `background` + one `background-blend-mode` property.

  9. And here's a cards demo with a cool, yet very simple trick: these left to right gradients are vibrant at the top, but then progressively get more and more desaturated going down, until fully grey.

    Live on @codepen codepen.io/thebabydino/pen/xxz - only 2 CSS declarations necessary!

  10. By the way, the code is heavily commented codepen.io/thebabydino/pen/MYW

    So you can see how it works without JS, without wrapping individual elements into spans, just letting it wrap naturally. And without covers that wouldn't allow for an image backdrop behind the text.

  11. If we have an inline `span` inside a `p` & we give it a semi-transparent `background` + a `padding`, we get an alpha increase where backgrounds of adjacent lines overlap.

    How would you solve this problem without text duplication, without stacking 2 identical `p` elements, one for background (opaque background + transparent text + opacity) and one for text (transparent background)?

  12. Hi, mastodon 🦣 I have a new article out!

    A Deep Dive into the Inline Background Overlap Problem: frontendmasters.com/blog/overl

    How do you get the below result (semi-transparent background on inline span) with large padding & no overlap?

    Answer in article, but think a bit about it first. 😼

  13. Pure #CSS 1 div halftone-masked background card codepen.io/thebabydino/pen/GRN on @codepen.

    Made this 4 years ago - can you guess how before checking the code?

    Doesn't work in Firefox due to an old bug 🪲 bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug. not even related to the halftone mask, but caused by the duo text on the right.

  14. By the way, this is my second article for Frontend Masters.

    My first was a few months ago and it was about creating dynamic split effects (image, text, page) without any content duplication whatsoever frontendmasters.com/blog/split
