“The simplicity of HTML and CSS now feels like a radical act. To build a website with just these tools is a small protest against platform capitalism: a way to assert sustainability, independence, longevity.” — Jarrett Fuller
Hmm, only 26 followers after being on Mastodon since November 2022? Ok, here is my intro again: (ex) Full stack web developer with Bread and Roses Creative, full time artist (now) and food critic (currently) with Chuck Eats KC. Kansas City-based web dev since the dawn of browsers (1995). Focus these days is one creative stuff: writing, food criticism, photography, streaming, art, and making fun videos.#Artists#Intros#Writers#FoodCritics#Fediverse#WebDev
“React and the component model standardises the software developer and reduces their individual bargaining power excluding them from a proportional share in the gains”. An amazing write-up by @baldur about the de-skilling of developers to reduce their ability to fight back against their employers.
For this week’s #FollowFriday I recommend a very unique account, Ryan Barrett @snarfed.org@snarfed.org
He works on https://fed.brid.gy — an important exploration on bridging different protocols in the social web.
If you open his profile (i.e., open original page) it’s actually just his #PersonalSite — a peek into a future where individual personal sites transcend any “social network”
I'm going to violate all #webdev principles and instead of implementing a proper form I'm going to implement options in #FingerMaze through a little bit of JS that changes the links to “new game” and “permalink to the current one”.
I’ve got some availability starting in mid-June for web design and/or development projects. And there are a couple of slots available for my design/development retainers.
I specialize in UX/UI design, web development, and Craft CMS. I’d post my portfolio link, but it’s embarrassingly out of date. 😉 Happy to discuss recent projects!
Just got an e-mail from #storyblok informing me that one of their sub-processors (whatever that means) is now #OpenAI.
I immediately asked them if the content I created will be used in any way to train their #LLM and if so, I want no part in it. Requested a back-up of my data and to delete everything.
I used it for the first iteration of my blog but switched to #markdown a while ago.
Ever since I quit Google I've stopped receiving junk emails, used to come about 10 a day and would end up in promotions folder, or updates, or socials, which google created. Now, I get nothing. Only newsletters, some of which are industry related so I don't mind them. #email#google#webdev
