I hate when it gives me more code than I gaurgored for. Especially when it's code solve code. 😠

As a side note, what exactly is happening with the title of this post? “Monday Monday”?

Maybe it's just deep referential meta humor — or just a typo. We'll never know.

Ah yes, monitor facing away from myself, the usual way I sit at my desk.

OK, Copilot, calm down…

Oh, a happy ending!

I don't know what we should do about the code that caused it, though. 🤔

You'd think after DECADES of people wasting their time trying to do this one task, browser vendors would get a clue that everyone wants to be able to do this as easily as possible and just make it happen.

Instead, we get useless UI redesigns, features literally no one asked for, Manifest v3, and new bugs.

FWIW, the fact that vendors generally don't diverge from the spec, and that the spec doesn't change quickly, are both very good for the web and those who work on it. Flexbox has been in the spec for over a decade:

html {
    margin: 0;
    width: 100%;
    height: 100%;
}
body {
    margin: 0;
    width: 100%;
    min-height: 100%;
    display: flex;
    align-items: center;
    justify-content: center;
}
.centered {
    /* Just demonstrating that size is dynamic. This div will
     * automatically be centered regardless of its size
     */
    width: 60vw;
    aspect-ratio: 1.7;
    background-color: chartreuse;
}
