Qt's marketing team has switched to yet another CMS, and of course everything looks like shit now. Actually, they did it a couple of months ago or so, but I didn't have time to write about it earlier.

How to add searching functionality to a static (Hugo-based) website/blog.

A month ago or so Slack introduced a new design. And what you couldn't miss is that the search bar now occupies the full-page-width block on top. What a brilliant idea.

But not as brilliant as the fact that there is no option to disable/hide it. Official Slack response to that is: "After we tested with users directly, we found that moving our search bar front and center better matches our customers’ expectations". Which fucking users? Who are these idiots? I am not one of them, can I have an option to hide/disable the search bar? To which Slack replies: "We don't have plans to make the search bar hideable at the moment".

Yeah, no worries, I'll just do it with CSS then:

div.p-client_container > div.p-client {
    display: block;
}
div.p-client > div.p-workspace {
    min-height: 100%;
}
div.p-client > div.p-top_nav {
    display: none;
}

...Can everybody just come to their senses and start using IRC again?
