Cumulative Layout Shift, CSS Solutions, the contain property.

Issue 250

I just looked at the number of this issue, 250. That's two-hundred and fifty weeks of CSS Layout goodness. I've managed not to miss a week so far, mostly thanks to the fact that people write enough interesting stuff to bring me a few things to share each week.

My diary is filling up with virtual presenting and workshops. It's not the 2020 I expected, but it's the 2020 I am getting. I'm trying to adapt to this new normal and to enjoy the time at home, feeling fortunate I have a garden to plant things in, and good friends online to spend time with in a virtual way at least. I hope you are all staying safe and well.
