Everything you ever wanted to know about text-wrap: pretty in CSS.
If we were to follow Jiro’s and his apprentices’ journeys and imagine web development the same way then would we ask of our junior developers to spend the first year of their career only on HTML. No CSS. No JavaScript. No frameworks. Only HTML. Only once HTML has been mastered do we move onto CSS. And only once that has been mastered do we move onto JavaScript.

Wrap everything in your CSS reset with a

!unimportantblock. You don’t need to worry about specificity or order of stylesheets at all.

Try writing your HTML in HTML, your CSS in CSS, and your JavaScript in JavaScript.
If you’re going to toggle the display of content with CSS, make sure the more complex selector does the hiding, not the showing.
Improving performance with containment.
I have some very talented friends.
