Our research group @uclab_potsdam is celebrating its tenth anniversary with a major relaunch of our lab's website crafted by @jonaspelzer:

Over the years, @boris and I have been tremendously blessed with stellar students, colleagues, and collaborators. Academic institutions might not love you back, but we have also received generous support from everyone at #FHPotsdam, from the administration to the security desk. I wouldn't have wanted to do this work anywhere else.

UCLAB is a visualization research group situated between design, computing, and the humanities.

Oh boy, the Mansplaining Olympics are wild this year.
Going "fungal". Like going viral, but more organic because you're on the Fediverse and no artificial algorithm helped.

Liebe Leute: ich bin wahrscheinlich die erste Person, die eine Professur für Verwaltungsinformatik (ja - das gibt es! …und es gibt viel zu tun.) auf Mastodon bewirbt. Umso schöner wäre es, wenn Ihr den Post boosten würdet.

Wir freuen uns über die Bewerbungen von Informatiker*innen bzw. verwandten Disziplinen, die zunächst nur eines der beiden Gebiete Datenbanken bzw. Geschäftsprozessmanagement übernehmen können, sich aber auch in das jeweils andere einarbeiten würden.

@elly highly skilled photo taking there. We were all too slow in the front row

That's why I like Svelte: it's more HTML, CSS and Javascript than it is an actual "framework" (though SvelteKit is an actual framework but I don't count SSR/backend/build process in this).

You don't usually want a "Svelte-way" of doing things: Svelte allows you to do it with plain HTML, plain CSS or plain JS.

Much better than all other frameworks 👌

@elly @shibbles @webdirections@.org would exclude Svelte from this:
the core team made it a fundamental principle in the lib development: don’t reinvent HTML/CSS, stick to the standards, empower users.
@elly javascript is like violence: if it doesn't solve the problem you have to use more of it.
@shibbles @webdirections
@elly @Gouximan @shibbles That’s a very good insight. When I worked at a web shop in the 90s, all the developers were male and all the graphic designers were female. Were HTML and CSS stigmatised as feminine early on, and was JavaScript appealing to male developers precisely because it helped them avoid what they saw as women’s work?
@benjamingeer @elly @Gouximan @shibbles you see the same here in games. People who're into tech attack every problem with tech. People who're into art... well, if your only tool (approach?) is a hammer, everything looks like a nail
@benjamingeer @elly @Gouximan ha! This is the exact topic I wanna cover in my next talk!

@benjamingeer @elly @Gouximan @shibbles that’s what I’ve been saying since JS frameworks took off.

Web was definitely “girl stuff” until then. Trying to avoid the “girl stuff” pigeonhole might be part of why I did OS stuff for years.

@maco @elly @Gouximan @shibbles This is reminding me of @histoftech's account of how programming went from being seen as a women's job to being seen as a men's job in the UK. https://mitpress.mit.edu/9780262535182/programmed-inequality/

@elly @shibbles @webdirections Started out with HTML/CSS and ended the same way. I've disabled JS in all of my browsers and funny, everything works EXCEPT the popups/pop unders, ads and other annoying shit on all the pages that give me a JS "error" message.
@alandvalonline @elly @shibbles @webdirections Same, been running with NoScript since forever and a lot of stuff just works.
@elly @shibbles I'm still not convinced you can make an entire website from scratch without writing any CSS at all. And to me JSX is basically HTML seen from the perspective of JavaScript, not something entirely different from HTML.

@elly @shibbles

@htmx_org developed a js-framework so that you can avoid writing JS :)

With tailwind you can avoid CSS, too.
