Buy a blog post from Shae Erisson

We are all a bit poor–those of us who are not rich–these days. We dream of making things and monetizing. What do kids want to do when they grow up? They want to be streamers and YouTubers. That’s the visible way to make money. 25 years ago the culture derided women who appeared in video...

Drawing and hand-written fonts

I have been thinking about hand-writing and websites in the background for a little while. I made a hand-written font using Calligraphr a few months ago. I enjoyed making this font, but haven't used it for a web project yet. Here's what it looks like: While making the font...

Places on the Bluesky map

bluesky-map.theo.io is a map of Bluesky. The creator, Theo Sanderson, posted this: I made a map of 3.4 million Bluesky users – see if you can find yourself! bluesky-map.theo.io I’ve seen some similar projects, but IMO this seems to better capture some of the fine-grained detail My handle is my website, verified with a DNS...

“Mildly Dynamic Website” — (hey that’s how I work)

Reading, as I do, a lot of blogs and ingesting “the web as she as spoke” as much as possible, I come across lots of jargon. Much of it is narrowly helpful, but ultimately, optional. But just a few minutes ago I came across Larry Garfield’s post Mild Dynamic Websites Are Back which led me...

Sandwich Questionnaire

I love sandwiches. Earlier today I was thinking about how you can eat a sandwich at any time of the day. I have eaten sandwiches for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. When I saw Zachary’s “Sandwich Questionnaire“, I thought I have to respond to this! I have been thinking about ...

Why I love my favourite words

Every so often, I use the word delightful in conversation. That is delightful! I try not to use “delightful” too often, but I do like to bring it into a discussion every now and again. It is one of my favourite words. The word delightful, like the word awe, makes me feel a ...

Design and missing categories

Ever since I moved to using Ghost as the tool for publishing my blog posts [1], I have forgotten to add categories to some of my blog posts. My old system had a few if statements that would automatically select a category. If none of the rules triggered and I did not choose ...

Noticing

Last weekend, I went to the National Gallery of Scotland. This time, I started my trip on the bottom floor where all the Scottish art is on display. A few minutes after entering the gallery, I was captivated by paintings of Nature and of Edinburgh. I noticed that one wall wa...

Clouds

I have been waking up with anticipation every morning recently. I say “good morning, world”, and then anxiously peek through the edge of the curtains. I hope for the blue sky. This last week has been rainy and grey. I tried to understand why but the meteorology went over my...

We are in a web renaissance now.

James mentioned the other day on his website a conversation we had during a Co-Unworking Zoom. To whit: It is perhaps because of this that, when I asked Joe yesterday “How can we achieve a web renaissance?”, he replied “I think we’re already in it.” Renaissance means “rebirth.” It’s not a quantifiable term. It’s a...

15 seconds.

Before the session. Today I took off on a wave and after it broke I ended up underneath it for 21 seconds. I think it’s accurate to say that I was “held down” for 15 seconds of that time. I did not like that. There’s a sign in the window of a lifeguard tower that...

Debug mode

One of the areas of the Artemis codebase that I update the most is the logic that relates to the list of posts published by authors to which a user is subscribed. Because Artemis works with so many different formats of information – web feeds like RSS or h-feed, Mastodon pos...

Staging banners

When I run the Artemis codebase, one of the first things it does is look for an environment variable that indicates what “environment” the application is running in. There are two modes: development and production. If no mode is specified, development mode is set by default....
