Below is a screenshot of some CSS code I stumbled on a few hours ago:

When I saw it, I just wanted to smack the nearest “hacker” with a keyboard.

Floating elements have text content wrapped around it and then alignment is to control the text direction for the whole element. So you float an image left or right and then have the text wrap around the image. Or you center align your text or left align it.

See better examples on CSS-Tricks: float and text-align.

This may be semantics but when you’re writing code other people are going to deal with, using proper and meaningful naming conventions can save them hours of time.

General Mills to remove artificial colors, flavors from cereals

General Mills announced Monday it will remove all artificial colors and flavors from its cereals beginning with Trix, Cocoa Puffs and Reese’s Puffs by the end of 2015.

Golden Valley-based General Mills appears to be the first major U.S. cereal maker to systemically extract artificial colors. But it’s the latest of several big food companies to dump artificial colors and flavors.

As more consumers have become wary of processed foods, they’ve gravitated toward “clean” labels free of stuff that doesn’t look natural.

“Consumers increasingly want the ingredient list for their cereal to look like what they pull out of their pantry,” Jim Murphy, president of General Mills U.S. cereal business, told the Star Tribune. They don’t want labels chock-full of “colors with numbers and ingredients you can’t pronounce.”

That means Red 40, Yellow 6, Blue 1 and other artificial dyes common in some cereals — particularly kids cereal — will give way to colors made from spices and fruit and vegetable juice concentrates.

Murphy said that over 60 percent of General Mills cereals already have no artificial colors or flavors. By the end of 2016, the company expects 90 percent of its cereal portfolio to be free of them, with the remainder going natural in 2017.

This is big step in the right direction.

Fear and Loathing in the Mystery Machine

Excerpts from the never-aired 1973 Scooby Doo episode with guest star Hunter S. Thompson.

We were ten minutes south of San Clemente when the putrid green daisy walls of the van started closing in. I recall the fat four-eyed lesbian sweater girl saying something like “are you okay, Mr. Duke? We’ve got a mystery to solve…” when suddenly the gullet of the garish chartreuse steel beast began to spasm, as if a digestive track readying itself to vomit. I began clawing at my hamstrings and when I turned my head I was looking into the irridescent eyes of a grotesque animal screeching “Ruh Roh! Ruh Roh!” in a hoarse irritating dog-accented gibberish. That’s when it things began to turn weird.
