Hi everyone, after a long stint as a freelance I am looking for a new permanent role as a #WebDesigner and/or #WebDeveloper, preferably in Cambridge, London if hybrid, or United Kingdom if remote.
From UX design to accessibility, HTML, SASS, PHP, Shopify Liquid, vanilla JS, WordPress, Jekyll.
I would appreciate any support! Thank you in advance for any boost, connections, advice, or opportunities. I would consider contracts as well, if advantageous.
Are you a #python / #django or #webdeveloper? We are looking for contributions for #Weblate and potentially helping us implement some additional features or fixing bugs.
Here is my toot resume in case anyone has open positions:
Experience: staff software engineer, #backend#webdeveloper, #python, #django, #postgresql, #terraform, #redis, #rabbitmq, #kubernetes, #aws, #gcp
I get things done and worked with pretty much any tech out there. I learn fast, have no problem coding in other languages. I have experience leading teams. I helped growing an engineering team from 10 to 150 engineers. I know how to scale things. My code is resilient and has tests. #fedihire
Did you find a way to address the issues presented while keeping #IconFonts?
Basically:
When our friends with #Dyslexia overrides your fonts, font icons turn into black boxes since the font they're using doesn't have support for those Unicode code blocks.
When screenreaders, or voice assistance, reads a site with icon fonts, they read the icon fonts really weird.
For No.2, a site with properly marked aria labels, or marked as hidden for assistive tech, is the solution I can think of.
However, for No.1, I can't think of a way since once the browser forces the user font, all fonts on the site will rely on the user's custom font.
The only other way I can think of is to provide an option to switch the site's font right from the website, so they don't have to override the site's font.
I’m experiencing a Google / robots.txt issue of some kind. According to my Google Search Console, my site (shellsharks.com) is crawlable and indexable, but it is blocked because of my robots.txt file. When inspecting the robots.txt file WITH the Google search console it says everything is fine and I should not be blocked. Up until recently, I had a “noindex” meta tag in my HTML markup but have since deleted that line so that shouldnt be an issue any more. Anyone have any ideas why Google still believes my site is blocked by robots.txt? Is this just a wait until Google can organically crawl my site again after having deleted the noindex meta tag?
Appreciate any help! Right now nothing on my site is findable it seems via Google which is kinda a bummer =/.
Like any true #webdeveloper I dream of one day building some tool or library that becomes really popular so that people start to pay attention to me on social media, but I know I'd end up cancelled af.

Werden #KI-Tools wie #ChatGPT#FrontendDeveloper überflüssig machen? Man könnte es glauben, wenn man einzelne, sehr spezifische Ergebnisse sieht. Ich glaube aber, dass #Frontend-#Entwickler auch in absehbarer Zukunft benötigt werden, sie aber sehr mächtige Tools an die Hand bekommen werden.
I decided I wanted to learn #golang a little while back. I really want to expand my skill set. I've been a #PHP developer for a really long time, and I really like PHP, but I need to branch out some more.
I had an idea for a #fediverse project, and decided that this project would be the perfect way for me to learn go.
But, I'm finding it really hard to make any headway on the project because there's so much to learn to make it work well.
Meanwhile, I'm finding that I really want to make this project a success, and with the extremely slow pace of building it in go, I'm thinking that maybe I should give up on that right now and build it in PHP after all. I could probably have a working MVP in a few weeks if I did it in PHP. And then tackle a less ambitious project in go later.
I can't decide which way to go. Maybe I could even build it in PHP and later rebuild it in go.
Putting our current legacy billing and provisioning system out to pasture. It has done well over the last 12 years or so but we can’t keep up with the workarounds for internal bugs. I’ve had the opportunity to build it from scratch which has been tremendous as I’ve known for some time what problems exactly I wanted to remove and what I wanted to add. Full unit testing and code coverage too, I’m so excited but it I can hardly sleep #betterworkstories#nerdingout#webdeveloper#systemsintegrator.
I am Ivan Rodriguez. I am a college student in #Amarillo, #Texas. I am learning to become a full-stack #webdeveloper, and although I have not used all of them, I know the basics of many of the mainstream #programming languages (see the color-coded doughnut chart below).
Besides programming, I am an ameture #journalist (when I have the time and energy to do so), and I like learning more about the world; I decided to open this alt to talk about programming-related stuff and my projects (one of which is @JokeBot BTW).
