Aside from a few criticisms that others have already raised I think this is quite a nice introduction to OKLCH and how to use them in CSS.

With that out of the way, I'd like to go on a tangent here: can anyone explain the modern trend of not including publishing dates in blog articles? It stood out to me here in particular because the opening sentence said that "OKLCH is a newer color model" and the "newer" part of that sentence will get dated quicker than you think. The main site does mention a date, but limits it to "August 2025" so this seems like a conscious choice and I just don't get it.

In such cases, I usually try to see if the `Last-Modified` header served with the HTML document over HTTP, can be useful, but I conclude that often the same people who don't bother with dating their content -- you'd think they'd understand where the word _blog_ comes from, as in "[web]-log" where timestamps are paramount -- these same people don't know or care how HTTP works. Hint: the `Last-Modified` is the last modification time of the _resource_, in this case the actual HTML document. Just because your "backend" re-rendered the content because you didn't bother with setting up your server caching correctly, doesn't mean you should pretend it's a brand new content every day (which https://jakub.kr/components/oklch-colors does, unfortunately, so you won't know the timestamp from HTTP).

I would imagine this is rather to whatever "blog engine" is used instead of the conscious choice of the author (even if they knew what they desire and what would qork better, it might not be their priority).

I can't explain it, but undated articles are a serious problem. I don't know whether it's a modern trend ... how can one tell in the absence of dates? I've seen plenty of undated content that appears to be old.

On some blogs I can only tell the timeframe of the content from the timestamps on the comments ... but many blogs like the OP's don't support comments. I'm not likely to revisit them. (The blurb on the OP's main page is ironic ... rather than obsessing over the smallest details I see obsession over esthetics to the detriment of functionality.)

SEO to protect old content from being demoted. It is annoying.

I'm surprised they don't punish undated articles then
