CSS Gets a New Logo: And It Uses the Color rebeccapurple
(michaelcharl.es)
My heart is healed for the day ❤️
I really didn’t expect to cry from reading this.
Who's cutting onions?
I'm just glad we didn't end up with this one (seen in the ticket)
It looks like one of those old captchas.
Needs more stop signs and crosswalks
Damn, sad story behind the color
The color was originally going to be called beccapurple, but Meyer asked that it instead be named rebeccapurple, as his daughter had wanted to be called Rebecca once she had turned six. She had said that Becca was a "baby name," and that once she had turned six, she wanted to be called Rebecca. As Eric Meyer put it, "She made it to six. For almost twelve hours, she was six. So Rebecca it is and must be."
And yet some subset of devs are still clinging to w3c's shields which is misleading since w3c has no jurisdiction over html (by whatwg) and js (ecma).
