If you only read one thing about AlphaGo, make it this news article. Michael describes how AlphaGo, a Google DeepMind project that recently beat a top Go expert, is different than other attempts at creating an effective Go-playing AI. Before AlphaGo, it was thought a development like this wouldn’t occur for at least another 10 years. For that reason Michael compares it to Deep Blue, the chess-playing AI that took over the world, and draws comparisons and conclusions. A very interesting article. I’d love to read more about the subject! |  |

CSS custom properties, again. They were in our previous issue, but we figured another article couldn’t hurt. Still a relatively hot topic, so this in-depth guide might be your perfect starting point if you haven’t looked at CSS native variables yet. |

CSS Grid Layout (aka “Grid”), is a two-dimensional grid-based layout system that aims to do nothing less than completely change the way we design grid-based user interfaces. Grid layout is a huge upgrade to the way we do layouts in CSS. What are you waiting to get up to speed? |
