Took me a second, but gd, this fits the mildly infuriating...

When you see it...

I wish I didn't, my tired brain nearly didn't see it... Goddamn now I have to go to bed knowing this exists

I still don't see it, guess I'm not a CSS developer after all 😟

Oh, I remember this! This is what happened last time I tried to do CSS! Turns out it's impossible to get anything to align quite right so you get this thing a little tiny bit above, so the tops don't align, but they kinda almost do, but the bottoms don't align at all ... Or you can try aligning the bottoms, in which case hahaha have fun trying!

Anyway I'm pretty sure it's the windows' vertical alignment. Eegh. Or maybe the solar panels on the right being not quite horizontally aligned with the edge of that middle window. Or maybe the mildly infuriating thing is that people insist on posting things with no description at all. shrugness!

hahaha, the solar panels aren't aligned to the windows

so typically in CSS, you work with columns of sorts, and then you have a bit of a gutter zone on either edge. edit: forgot to mention, the gutter columns are there to provide a bit of a whitespace buffer on the left and right side of the page so the eyes are drawn toward the center portion of the webpage.

this looks like those cases where the developer makes something aligned to the absolute edge of the webpage rather than aligned to the edge of the column it's supposed to be in. so you get a bunch of stuff looking nice and neat (the windows are symmetrical for the area of the house they are in, and the solar panels are placed above said windows).

the problem is that one of the sets of solar panels looks like it had the spirit of being aligned to the window, but is instead off to the right of it.

as someone who has a touch of the sperg, i theorize that CSS developers do this as a national sport akin to professional chicken, and they do it to see how much they can fuck with a perfectly aligned page and still get away with it because people don't realize it's on purpose. but that could also be because i'm bitter lol

It's about the windows, their size and the panels around them.

[–] Marxine 3 points 1 year ago

Oof, I didn't notice the solar panels. I thought the whole house looked like a mess and wasn't sure if it was something in particular or the whole package :')

these are rookie mistakes. When I write CSS, the roof is underground and you won't even find the door, because it's hanging at an absolute point behind the sky, while I furiously add numbers to the z-index.

This post and thread made me grin happily at no longer fighting with CSS.

That second shallower window though…arg.
