On my way back home from #SotB2026 I hacked my way into animating between `position-area` values with View Transitions. The VT automatically gets started by a StyleObserver.

Demo + details can be found on my blog: https://brm.us/animate-position-area

It’s not 100% perfect though, as Firefox doesn’t do anything and Chrome has a 1-frame glitch.

I've long been confused by the changing Lighthouse ("Core Web Vital") metrics - and they depreciated Time To Interactive (TTI) just as more and more sites and web apps started loading static sites that got "hydrated" with JS later.

At State of the Browser, @zachleat talked about the Interactivity Dead Zone (IDZ) which is effectively TTI minus Largest Contentful Paint (LCP) and I think it's a useful metric even if Lighthouse isn't measuring it any more.

I was too busy talking to lovely people to take any photos at State of the Browser or at the pub afterwards - an absolute pleasure, and I remain very grateful to be able to enjoy the company of these people who all have so much heart and soul.

So I snapped a selfie on the way home in front of an iconic London Underground logo behind a bench, while changing tube trains.

See you London, until next time - many thanks to @webstandards and all the organisers, notably @dletorey ❤️

Had a brilliant day today at #SotB2026 !

Took all my notes on paper, which is why I've been quiet about it, it's better for my concentration ✏️

Looking forward to chinwagging down the pub shortly 🍻

I love that @cassiecodes worked that quote into her #SotB2026 live-coded video game.

OK, maybe @cassiecodes has an ever better shirt than @zachleat.

"a talk is more than bits of code" - @cassiecodes.bsky.social - I strongly, *strongly* agree @ #SotB2026

@zachleat I'm going to be billing you for psychic damage #SotB2026

From @kitation’s #SotB2026 talk: “If you can count from one to six, you can do headings.”

@zachleat is mortified that his code sample <img> tags have no alt-text. I think he is incorrectly harsh on himself. *When viewing the code*, additional tag properties would make the material less accessible by adding non-relevant material, not more.

Fiona Safari talks about her understanding of her own introversion. I see awareness and happy acceptance of being introverted in my own children. If I'd known and accepted the concept fully as a teenager, I think I would have been happier. They seem to be.

Terrific technical talk by @bramus on browser-native anchoring. Has profound implications for webmap popups:

Waiting for the start of #sotb26 - my first time. Might get to say hello to old collaborator @dletorey, and also pleased to see accessibility in the spotlight.

Mildly delayed start, but now en route and very excited for State of the Browser! #SotB2026

Bruce is getting into fighting shape (https://bsky.app/profile/brucel.bsky.social/post/3mfrhpz7qgc27) for #SotB2026 attendees, Steve’s offering a discount (https://mastodon.social/@SteveFaulkner/116137673219434143), and all I’ve got is a free sticker for whomever wants one for as long as my supply lasts.

I will be at #SOTB2026 on Saturday, Jet-lagged and confused.

If you feel I’ve wronged you, that’s your chance to seek satisfaction. Heck, I may print cards of satisfaction and just leave them on my lap so I can nap during lunch.

🙌🏻 BIG weekend coming up
Friday the Good Dr Swallow @davidofyork comes to visit the Royal Borough!

Saturday is State of the Browser conference #SOTB2026 where i will catch up with @aardrian, @JoeLamyman and many others.
