I'm a web developer presently currently working in corporate education. I'm passionate about the indie web, foss, and game development.
I naively thought that Mastodon would be a reprieve from the toxicity on other platforms. The difference on mastodon is that many comments seem to feel justified in their hateful attitude because of some perceived moral high ground. It feels that social media tends to bring out the worst in people regardless of the shape or platform.
I've noticed a fairly significant issue with LLM-assisted coding that I haven't heard others discuss.
The LLM frequently wraps calls in conditionals such as `if (variable_name)`, but rarely handles the condition where the variable is null or undefined.
It feels like the model is trained to write code that passes without errors, but is tossing out useful information and failing silently instead.

I've been very skeptical and hesitant about using AI code assistants. I tried ChatGPT for some programming several times over the years to middling results. I never liked using co-pilot.
That being said, Claude Code has been very impressive. I would love to see other companies adopt cli interfaces in the future.
It's incredibly expensive, though, and I'd be interested to see something like this that runs locally.

This website has some cool #HTML nuggets here I hadn't run into before:
- meter
- progress
- popover
- dialog (was aware of this one, but learned some new functionality)
- HTML automatically creates JS variables for elements with IDs!
There's so much you can do with just HTML, it's incredible!
Frontend DogmaThis might be the worst captcha I've ever seen. Several of the objects are completely unrecognizable. I think the correct answer was top-right, but in other challenges color was considered.
