Just found out about the liquidation of [Wayback/Archive] ISOSTEEL Deutschland GmbH, Wiesbaden.
Their availability of spare caps were the reason for getting their thermos flasks and caps in the first place. As a bonus, their flashs had a wide opening as well. Much wider than the 25+ year old HEMA thermos flasks I used before (one of which the cap had died, the other one lost its vacuum):
The Isosteel caps are slowly dying, which means I need to find an alternative brand that provides spare parts and has a large flask opening, and kept liquid hot for 24 hours or cold for 48 hours. Just see their prior products at [Wayback/Archive] “ISOSTEEL – Isoliergefäße aus Edelstahl”.
Liquidation:

Last week I wrote about Example how not to return a HTPP-500 result: Amazon DE – Tut uns Leid!.
Today I found https://archive.is/undefined which consistently returns a HTTP 404 in the HTTP result.
It reminded me of an old (well, what is old anyway <g>) post Best 404 page ever. back in the days (returning both 404 in the HTTP result and page content) I did not yet archive outgoing links (it took me a few more years to realise many URLs are ephemeral and have queued up a post on that for early next year), and found out the site has changed since then. Time for archived and updated links, and a repository too as by now the source has been published on GitHub:

Very cool web site that I only discovered last year, with the clever name: [Wayback/Archive] Wakamai Fondue, the tool that answers the question “what can my font do?”
Drop a font!
Fonts aren’t uploaded,
they stay on your computer
Back then I used it to investigate some properties of SMuFL (Standard Music Font Layout) fonts as sometimes editing a PDF is easier than manually entering/transcribing it in MuseScore.
Of course you can use local font tools, but this is far easier for occasional use.
The beta can do even more at the risk of bumping into bugs: [Wayback/Archive] Wakamai Fondue, the tool that answers the question “what can my font do?”
Note the colour matching of the text around the circle with the fondue background image.
Oh: it is open source too, written mainly in JavaScript, CSS and a tiny bits of HTML and Python, based on Vue.js and npm, and available as parts in the repositories of [Wayback/Archive] Wakamai Fondue · GitHub:

Not being a front-end web-developer, I hadn’t seen¹ the figure element in HTML code before, so here are some links:
TL;DR – figure it is like a div element, but context specific: it groups elements that logically for one figure, including an optional description in the figcaption.
The group can be moved outside the main content flow without changing the meaning of that flow.
Query: [Wayback/Archive] what is a html figure for – Google Search
--jeroen
¹ I surely am not the only one, as the figure element isn’t even on the element usage graph in the [Wayback/Archive] HTML Study – AWR SEO Guide.

For a, I wanted to a HTML ul list the SQL keywords in multiple columns I was afraid this would be a tough CSS job, but in practice it was way easier than even explained in the below Stack Overflow answers that made me find
[Wayback/Archive] columns – CSS: Cascading Style Sheets | MDN
The columns [Wayback/Archive] CSS shorthand property sets the number of columns to use when drawing an element’s contents, as well as those columns’ widths.
TL;DR:
- I used
<ul style="columns:3">...</ul>
- For setting column width, this failed in Chrome
<ul style="column-count: 2; column-width: 15em;">...</ul>
but this worked: <ul style="column-count: 2; width: 480px;">...</ul>
Here are the answers:

I originally searched for the tables below to see if I could get the visualisations of TeX and LaTeX right for infinite loop in “LaTeX: A Document Preparation System” by Leslie Lamport, printed in 1994..
Didn’t work, neither did using plain html super and subscript. The only thing that worked was using CSS styles (I chose to embed them, as separate CSS files are a huge premium over the WordPress plan), which also preserves actual meaning for screen readers:

It’s almost
Goal of the current post amend the above posts with information so I can later write a bookmarklet or web-page with JavaScript that – from a x.com or twitter.com – tweet URL can get the JSON, then the images and/or videos in all sizes, then generate a web-page from it for Wayback Machine archival.
