This week.

Hollllly shhhh... look WHAT I just got!!! I've been searching for this forever on GoDaddy, Google, and Vercel and somehow Cloudflare had it!? 🤩

Every now and then, I revisit @infrequently.org’s blog, and it’s always a moment of clarity. Despite his clashes with JS fwks, notably React, which I’ve been deeply involved with, he remains one of the most influential figures in how I understand the web and platform economics for nearly a decade.

Can we take a moment to appreciate how this generation of websites is embracing motion (via Lottie, Motion, etc.) and visual effects like blurring, gradients, and glow? The web has finally caught up the level of Flash...from 20 yrs ago. It's not too late though!

I want to dedicate my first bsky to appreciating the unique form factor of tech talks: I still find them the single best way to explain and convey ideas—better than code, documents, videos, or any single medium alone. They’re the complete package, like the feature films of the tech world.
