Opera GX on Linux offers a unique GX Control feature that allows users to manage memory limits, network limits, and control resource-heavy tabs, enhancing performance and user experience.

If you ask Claude to generate a web page for you, there is a high chance you will get a very generic output. The page serves a functional purpose, but it's not very appealing. You can see that this design clearly serves the functional purpose, but doesn't look very appealing.

Browser cache - Sometimes the browser is still loading the old CSS file. A hard refresh (Ctrl + F5) usually fixes it. Wrong file linked - Double-check if your HTML is actually linked to the correct CSS file. Specificity issues - Another CSS rule might be overriding your changes.

If Ingress is the Legacy Path, then the Gateway API is the modern highway. In this guide, I will walk you through a complete migration demonstrating how to swap out your old Ingress controllers for Envoy Gateway. We won't just move traffic; we'll leverage Envoy's power to implement seamless request mirroring and more robust, path-based routing that was previously hidden behind complex annotations.

CLAUDE.md = "project brain" Skills = "reusable capabilities" The way I think about CLAUDE.md and Skill is this distinction. Think of CLAUDE.md as "Everything Claude needs to know about this particular project." If, when thinking about a particular detail, you start your thought with "In this project..." or "For this project..." then this information belongs in CLAUDE.md.

Through a new service called my.WordPress.net, the WordPress software lets users set up a site and begin publishing without signing up, setting up a hosting plan, or registering a domain.

If you've signed up for Cursor to do some casual vibecoding, you'll probably find yourself disoriented by the command lines and acronyms that live throughout the software. Lu proposes he can solve this tension with his new project, something he's calling 'Baby Cursor.'

@keyframes animations can be named using strings, allowing syntax like @keyframes "@animation" { /* ... */ } with corresponding animation: "@animation" declarations. This capability has existed for 11 years across browsers, yet remains relatively unknown to many developers seeking alternative keyframe naming conventions beyond standard identifier formats.

Vercel, the cloud platform behind Next.js, has released react-best-practices, an open-source repository containing over 40 performance optimization rules for React and Next.js applications. The framework, which encapsulates over a decade of engineering knowledge from Vercel's production codebases, is structured specifically for consumption by AI coding agents and LLMs, though the team notes it is equally valuable for human developers.

As the HTTP Archive reminds us, video and audio files are some of the heaviest resources requested by web pages. This new standard will dramatically reduce page weight and ease resource overhead all through a simple declarative HTML attribute. Lazy audio and video works just like lazy-loading of image and iframe elements work today: just add loading=
