I'm Dylan (he/him), a husband, father and full stack web developer experienced with #PHP, #SvelteKit, #Svelte, #JS, #NodeJS, #linux, #WordPress and #ansible. I'm also the author of the #book "SvelteKit Up and Running."

I enjoy #running, #programming, #pcgaming, and #gardening. I also love a good challenge which is why I #homelab.

Currently, I'm building https://helth.app/, a PWA for tracking nutrient intake.

Occasionally shitposting.

Wow, can you believe it? You're free to work up to 14 hour days at this place! Some company perks are hard to believe.

@joshwcomeau This is a fully functioning synthesizer built entirely with HTML, CSS, and JS. It uses the Web Audio API to generate the sounds on the fly!

Sad to see old communities and the content they've produced poisoned by AI slop. But at least everyone on Mastodon is still a real person, right? ...right, folks? You're all real, right?

PhysicsForums and the Dead Internet Theory

An exposé no one will read, about the widespread falsification of user posts in PhysicsForums, a scientific community founded in 2001. This is a microcosm of the death of the human-written Internet.

Just finished "The Bezzle" by @pluralistic and I can honestly say this story is a delight. Love reading how Martin Hench gets himself into (and out of) the most precarious of situations. After reading "Red Team Blues," I knew I needed to get my next fix quickly.
