Bienvenue sur mon recueil de créations et réflexions sur des sujets très variés, notamment la photo et le Web. Vous pouvez en savoir plus à propos de moi ou de ce site.
I like animated GIFs, like most people these days I think, but they are really heavy, hurting the performance of web pages, and consuming data plans faster than should be needed. So we need to convert them to videos, which are much lighter, for the same visual result. Let’s use Cloudinary.
Je ne sais pas si vous avez déjà été confronté au SAV de Lapeyre, mais je peux vous dire qu’il vaut son pesant de cacahuètes.
I’m fed up with waiting for an updated Mac mini, but I need to replace one that is 10 years old (yes, 10 years!), so I’m considering other options.
500px once was a light in the dark, when Flickr stopped evolving, years ago. But 500 px gradually descended from its pedestal, as decisions were made against users’ interests.
Evan Minto wrote a great article showing the Internet Archive has tested the actual root font-size set by their visitors, and the result shows a lot of people still change the default one: Pixels vs. Ems: Users DO Change Font Size.
J’ai eu l’honneur de présenter une petite conférence lors du meetup WebPerf de mars 2018, sur un sujet qui me passionne, puisqu’il combine deux de mes marottes en Web front : la performance et les images en Responsive Web Design. Je vous invite à découvrir mes slides et la vidéo.
People tend to be lazy (I am often) and chose the easiest tool to do the job, even if it’s not the best one.

It was the first time I really tried to use Web technologies instead of Powerpoint to create slides for a talk. The aim was to be able to demonstrate some cool responsive images features right inside the slides. But when I tried to put big emojis is these slides to emphasize reactions to these features, I discovered Chrome didn’t show some of them!
Enough. I’m fed up with Disqus. It’s been useful, easy to plug on this blog, but it’s a mess for web performance, and I don’t own my data, so… bye bye. Webmention is now a great alternative, with more people implementing it, so let’s try to keep only that.
