Rooting for the Spurs tonight. I made a new Fiesta-themed Spurs ANSI (using ICE colors; cheating, I know).

And, if you're one of the exactly 4 people in the world who actually, honestly believes #agentic #AI is a thing other people care about (hint: we don't), consider that LLMs work best in #plaintext (no js-required rendering!)

AI agents will work best if your site renders well in a #textmode #browser.

Consider this:

If your website doesn't render sensibly in a #textmode #browser (emacs-eww, lynx, links2, w3m, chawan, just to name a few), or if javascript is disabled in a graphical browser, then it probably also doesn't work for people who need screen readers. If you're not testing with text-mode browsers and screen readers, guess who's the asshole (hint: it's not the visitor.)

Went to see this one.

About a quarter century ago, I also went to see a talk on the asthetics of the CLI. Back then, the arts university hall was full of art students dressed in black, leaning on divans scribbling CLI commands into their unruled sketchbooks.

There's a healthy group here too. And I clearly have not been following the current trends in #ASCII art
