I’ve been very diligent lately about doing all work in a Git branch so it’s easy to let Codex run a quick sanity check on every change before it’s merged. Today has been a roller coaster, distracted, busy, but still took a few minutes to code and just pushed changes up without review like it’s 2007.

Today I just launched support for BlueSky as a new authentication option in IndieLogin.com!

I’ve made a web page each day this month for #WeirdWebOctober. Some are pretty special to me. Each day I give myself permission to pause or stop. So far: 11 days, 11 pages. Each one a bit different. Each with different but straightforward HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. And the tools built into browsers. O what...

I’ve been trying to find time in my calendar to attend more WordCamps as I love meeting WordPressers all over the world. The stars aligned, and I’ll be swinging by WordCamp Canada next week. They’ve put together an amazing program, including open web pioneer and inventor Dave Winer, so I’m looking forward to checking out … Continue reading In Canada →

I'm narrating development work on my Daveverse site. If you're interested, that's where I've been while I'm shaking out core bugs in the new WordLand. These are the things I want to stay fixed and never have to screw with again. It does actually work that way in products that go through a shake-out process. Drummer and FeedLand both work pretty well. Sure there are bugs and things I wish worked differently, but I and a few other people use them as everyday tools. I'm trying to get WordLand with its timeline function to be that way. A bunch of new hookups via HTTP and Websockets.

Suppose somebody is using a blade. Perhaps they’re in the bathroom, shaving. Or maybe they’re in the kitchen, preparing food.

Suppose they cut themselves with that blade. This might have happened because the blade was too sharp. Or perhaps the blade was too dull.

Either way, it’s going to be tricky to figure out the reason just by looking at the wound.

But if you talk to the person, not only will you find out the reason, you’ll also understand their pain.

A URL shortener that’s dodgy by design.

I’m not the only one who’s amazed by how much you can do with just a little CSS these days.

Watching the WNBA finals winding down. Pretty incredible run by the Aces leading into and through the playoffs. Ready for the NBA regular season, almost here. 🏀

Have you ever wondered why new CSS features and other web technologies very often seem to just work across browsers these days? The reason is probably: Interop. The Interop Project is a collaborative effort between major browser makers — Apple, Bocoup, Google, Igalia, Micro...

I’d like to introduce you to Jeremy Kranz.

First request for YouTube API access has been rejected by Google because they didn’t like my screencast walkthrough. Annoyed. Might pivot and get back to it later.

We added new settings for your profile page today. By default Micro.blog thinks about most everything as public on the open web, but adding more control here feels right and is consistent with some of our fediverse settings. Here’s a screenshot:

Public Service Announcement: Here’s your gentle maintenance reminder to clean the slugs on your typewriter to keep your type fresh and crisp.

The best thing about working with other people is they push you to consider paths you wouldn’t have thought of yourself. Helps to not get stuck in one narrow way of thinking.
