User style: Dark mode for Stylus

Creating a user style for an application that is used to create user styles in, feels a bit like creating a circular reference. In Excel that would be like entering the function =if(A1="";"empty cell";A1) in cell A1.

However, it turns out that Stylus doesn't care about circular references, so I created a Dark Mode user style for Stylus. This style also includes a Dark Mode for the user styles management page.

Edit: In the meantime I wrote a more complete dark theme for Stylus that you can read about in 'User style: 1973 prism, the Dark Side of Stylus'.

Band Back to Basic

Back to Basic is a band originally from Rotterdam, The Netherlands, who play groovy soulful rock-inspired music. They've been around since 1993, which is also when I first saw them play. The last time I saw them play was in 2008 at their fifteenth anniversary reunion, also in Rotterdam. Since then, it has been quiet around the band. Too quiet. Yesterday I sort of stumbled over them at a local festival in their original home town. And again, sparks were splashing. The band were obviously having fun and the music was still top notch. New album 'Not Over Yet' I was happy to learn they recently finished recording a new album, aptly titled 'Not Over Yet', which will be released on Tuesday, June 25th * . It can be heard live on Sunday, June 30 2019 at the Facet Jazz Festival Hillegersberg , where the band will be playing on Stage 1 at 3pm. 'Not Over Yet' is the title of the new album by fusion veterans Back to Basic. Album launch: June 25th 2019 * EDI...

Tutorial: how to display icons for external links using CSS only

In this tutorial you will learn a neat trick that allows you to display an icon after each external link with CSS only. Use case In this blog every external link is followed by an icon that indicates that it is an external link . In WordPress this is often accomplished by installing a plugin. In Blogger or other platforms admins don't get spoiled with plugins so much as in WordPress. While getting spoiled with plugins sounds nice, it has some distinct disadvantages: you tend to just search for an appropriate plugin and not consider other possibilities that may be better or faster, the more plugins you install, the more maintenance you will need to do (install security updates and check if the plugin is still maintained and does not conflict with other plugins), the more plugins you install, the slower your website will eventually get, you make your website or blog dependent on code that you have no control over other than disabling it. Don't get me wrong: plugins are a...

Blogger Tutorial: the best SEO title tag, Addendum

SEO and XML go hand in hand on the Blogger platform. So do XML and learning, for me at least. After my first post on Blogger and search engine optimization, Blogger Tutorial: the best SEO title tag , I wasn't quite satisfied with the results. On search results, label pages and archive pages, the title still showed ' O'Cor | O'Cor '. I realized that these have their own objects that could be used to display a relevant title. Now, I know that these kinds of pages are not indexed by search robots, so why bother? Well, first I like to challenge myself and to learn new things. Second, it felt like there were some loose ends to tie. I don't like loose ends. Third, I don't really need a reason: it's my personal blog and I can do as I like (and it feels GOOD!). So, I set about learning on how to optimize the title tag even more. After a sleep deprived night (almost), I think I came up with a satisfying result. If you wish to jump to the code and don't...
