Not new, but always enjoy occasionally checking what Rek and Devine are up to @ 100 rabbits: https://100r.co/

If you get a kick out of 3D renderings of cells and molecules, you're gonna have a field day with the work done at https://random42.com/. PSA: I started working there as a 3D artist but now lead the interactive department. You'd be surprised at how much a good art direction really makes a difference in scientific visualization. Real-time graphics advanced considerably in the last couple years but it's always a challenge to transport that nice, smooth pre-rendered look over to mobile devices and the web at 60 frames per second (90 on virtual reality headsets, to boot...)

I'm coding on a 1080p screen and I still very much prefer pixel-perfect fonts - Terminus (https://files.ax86.net/terminus-ttf/) has been my font of choice, with proggy clean being a close second (use it for terminal panels and such). I see the site has a filter toggle to show those but with modern browser forcing anti-aliasing on all text, that's pretty uselesas.
On a related note, I noticed that there are a few fonts which seems to ignore system-wide or browser-wide antialiasing settings - one example would be the "MS Gothic" font, visible on this site: https://fountainofdreams.net/ where all text is crisp as hell. Why is this?

For those who might be interested, I wrote an introductory book to HaxeFlixel at https://discover-haxeflixel.com/ which was "blessed" by the devs (we gave away tons of copies during an HaxeFlixel IndieGoGo, plus there's a link to the book in the official docs as well)

Nothing special, it's basically a host for my (not exactly up to date) resume, a couple projects, and my github.
I do, however, take pride in its pleasant minimalism and the fact that it's blazing fast - mostly out of being html-only, with all "pages" actually embedded in a single file - it was generated from a single markdown file using https://github.com/leoncvlt/imml

Love this! Some time ago I created a tool to make similar one-page sites by parsing a markdown file: https://leoncvlt.github.io/imml/
It's also available as a library / on the command line: https://github.com/leoncvlt/imml

On a similar vein, I'm a fan of water.css for small / quick projects: https://watercss.kognise.dev/

Quoting the creators on reddit[1]: "We (Ben West & Joseph Pleass) just finished our first game, Peter Talisman: Lord of the Harvest, accompanying the album by our friends Slugabed and Samuel Organ. It's browser-based and about 40 minutes long. You'll guide Peter Talisman and Arthur Portal-Dolmen to uncover the sentimental sediment that lies across the great plane of corn."

Came here to mention this, Gooey is very useful to make simple command-line scripts "non-tech-friendly" by giving it a familiar GUI rather than a scary black terminal window :)

No, I'm just sharing a weekend project. If your first reaction is "anyone who needs this weird feature could just add a string delimiter to their markdown file, and use a Unix until to partioning" then it's clearly not something for you.

Same benefits that any tool with a higher level of abstraction might have over its lower-level ancestors - less verbosity, and faster / easier ways to achieve certain things (in this case, creating simple text-based websites) while keeping the complexity under the bonnet (you'd have to re-implement the multi-page logic using the CSS :target selector when using regular html if you want the same functionality as my tool).

Can you create a multi-page website from a single file in pandoc or markdown?
