Bali BaloCSS天才

Today Bali Balo, a French designer and developer, published a new piece: a cube suspended in darkness that rotates on its own. As it does, it reveals different sides, each offering a glimpse into a different world:

今天，法国设计师兼开发商Bali Balo 发表了一篇新文章：一个悬浮在黑暗中的立方体可以自行旋转。通过这样做，它揭示了不同的方面，每个方面都可以让您瞥见一个不同的世界：

a game of 3D pong
3D乒乓球游戏
nested 3D shapes that slide around as the cube tilts
嵌套的3D形状随着立方体的倾斜而滑动
a field of stars whizzing past as if traveling at near light speed
一团恒星wh绕而过，仿佛以近光速行进
a surreal humanoid figure that seems to tumble forever through space
一个超现实的类人生物，似乎永远在太空中翻滚

Bali Balo is famous on CodePen not only for these explorations of geometry, but also for building a pure-CSS Minesweeper game.

Bali Balo在CodePen上不仅以对几何的探索而闻名，而且还因为构建纯CSS的Minesweeper游戏而闻名。

That’s right — a fully functioning Minesweeper game — just like the one that has come pre-installed on Windows for decades.

没错-一款功能全面的《扫雷》游戏-就像几十年来预先安装在Windows上的游戏一样。

You can play it here and see that it is indeed running without the use of JavaScript.

想到的一天： (Thought of the day:)

“I’ve been fairly successful at what I call ‘Tom Sawyering’; it’s the idea that if you want to get your fence painted, you trade something of value with the people with whom you work. You have to be committed to their success as well as your own.” — Chuck Thacker

“我在所谓的“汤姆·索亚林”上相当成功；这是一个想法，如果您想粉刷一下围栏，便会与与之共事的人交换一些有价值的东西。您必须致力于他们的成功以及自己的成功。” － Chuck Thacker
