🎤 Featured Talk: "Weaponised Liability with CSS” by Adam Harding

Let's kick off 2026 by exploring how modern CSS techniques can help combat the onset of existential dread.
Today's development landscape is a competitive battlefield, requiring engineers to be t-shaped, product-minded, outcome-driven, and AI-augmented.
In this workshop we will learn how to weaponise these metrics and turn them against our corporate oppressors through anchor-positioning, scroll-targeting, typed attributes, discreet animations, and a real native if() function.
