@aral thoughts on RegExr vs Regex101.com?

Odd regex syntax in that RegEq one... how do I do "zero to three repetitions of x"

@aral nice!

Imagining a ChatGPT fueled dystopia in which all work emails are needlessly prolonged by AI embellishing the text to make the sender seem more intelligent, but it's okay because recipients all just ask ChatGPT to summarize each email. It is a social faux pas to write directly or informally. People learn how to evaluate if generated emails are written in a way where ChatGPT summaries preserve the essential points.

@aral Have you seen the 11ty team's work on .webc btw?

Similar in doing templating/leaning into web standards, but a different approach? I think there could be some interesting cross-pollination here..

@martijn @aral they do, tho. <br> is valid HTML, but perhaps not valid XHTML – but XHTML was abandoned with HTML5.

@aral this is so nice!!

@aral Yeah,makes sense, I'm a big fan of your approach of leaning into HTML and CSS!

@aral that makes sense!

I see a few potential edge cases, you may have considered:

- components with shared styling, e.g. `class="card photo-card"` (not a great example) inherits some base styling from card, and adds component specific styling. How is that done? If merged from different sources, order is important (photos-card after card in the cascade).

- order of styling defined inside a compinent must be preserved on merge in order for component-local cascade to persist

@aral This feels like the kind of thing that may break the cascade? If two equally specific rules match an element, the order is significant. Depending on how it's done 😁
