@chriseppstein Waxing philosophical, are we?
-
@crgwbr It also doesn’t help that CSS pixel==actual resolution pixel, but CSS in != actual in
-
@crgwbr …making the resolution MQ worthless when dealing with things dealing w/things in the physical world (device pixel ratio, real sizes)
-
@crgwbr I understand that, the issue is that the CSS “pixel” that exists in the CSS Resolution has no bearing to real pixels of device…

RT @chriseppstein: @ScottKellum @Snugug The w3c: where the specs don’t matter and the units are all made up.
-
@chriseppstein @ScottKellum HAHAHAHA!
-
@ScottKellum @w3c Seems that way. A 1440x900 screen is ALWAYS 15" by 9.375" regardless of its actual dimensions (say, 13" vs 15.4" screen)
-
@ScottKellum As I learned and tested today, there’s something called “CSS Resolution” where 1in ALWAYS equals 96px, regardless of actual in
-
Well, at the very least, not practical. It /could/ have a 3.48" tall screen, but chances are it’s something useable.

Also, apparently on my 15.4" diagonal rMBA, the “width” of the screen is 15in in CSS. A Trig lesson as to why that’s not possible?
-
Also interesting to note; while 1in==2.54cm==96px in CSS land, it’s only 7/8in in real measurement land on a rMBP and 3/4in on a 13" MBA.
-
This means you don’t need to shell out all of that extra money for the Retina MacBook Pro!
-
Good news everyone! After crunching some numbers, according to the w3c, the 13" MBA has a higher resolution than the 15.4" rMBA!
-
More interesting stuff. Despite what the W3C says w3.org/blog/CSS/2012/06/14/unprefix-webkit-device-pixel-ratio, device-pixel-ratio and the dppx unit are functionally different.
-
Hmm, very interesting. It seems as if increasing/decreasing font size will trigger EM based MQs in -moz and -o, but not -webkit

@chriscoyier great article on Sass 3.2 and MQs. Did you know we’ve already got Compass extensions for the mixin though? cl.ly/1x3Q0o0d461A1m151Y0g
