Mediocre Web Developer / Co-Organizer VueATL / Listening. (he/they?) I will talk about CSS. That is a threat. https://notacult.social/@fimion https://dangitalex.wtf https://alex.party Views do not represent opinions of my employer.

deeply annoying that creative breakthroughs don’t come on schedule from direct work but from things like “open-ended conversations with interesting people” and “doing nothing”

Keeping this going because we are almost to the end goal. I appreciate all who have donated and grateful for that support. Just a little more to go to end goal. Please repost, thank you.

gofund.me/ef06d9d56 There’s an end in sight. I just have to make sure I am staying on top of this to get it there. Repost for reach please. Thanks.

My experience with k-pop boy bands so far: Meh. Meh, but that song is catchy. Meh, but these songs are catchy. These songs are catchy, but I don't get the singers. These songs are catchy and that guy is hot. These songs are catchy, that guy is hot, and this is now my personality.

On April 4th, I am hosting a free live event and I want you in the room. Not to perform. Not to prove you get it. To practice. Most of what white folx call doing the work is still happening inside your own head. Reading. Reflecting. Feeling bad. Feeling good. Feeling bad about feeling good.

Yesterday was my last day at Deno. I'm sad to leave but I'm proud of everything the team and I were able to build. I'm glad I had the opportunity to work with some of the most talented people I've met. I wish them all the best! I'm actively looking for my next challenge, my DMs are open!

Just so I've got this straight... We used to type out the thing we wanted to do. Then we made it so we can click on things and people hated to type out things. Now we need to make everything work by.... Typing out things?

You know how people complain about cheap knock-off products that break really quickly and have no longevity and add to the growing piles of plastic garbage? Unrelated, I'm sure vibe coded apps are the future and can be built quick and cheap and completely replicate well established projects.

Browser developers are working on custom form controls ( `appearance:base`), the next giant task is looming: customisable input type=date/datetime/color pickers. These are huge and have wildly varied UI. Send me your examples, I'd love to see them and build up a body of these pickers.

Alright, apparently I now have to learn about passkeys because my wife is locked out of her Nintendo account because 1password shit itself while trying to set one up.

Good news everyone, my new passport is here so I have 10 years to try and get accepted to an international conference before I have to renew again.
