I'm a web developer presently currently working in corporate education. I'm passionate about the indie web, foss, and game development.

Just found this wonderful website which points out where the pointer is. Give it a try! https://pointerpointer.com

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.

@spencersb Its a good idea! In my experience, having a bespoke landing page for your show with all your info is a much nicer experience than using something like LinkTree.

If you'd like any specific recommendations or questions feel free to hmu

@spencersb A simple landing page for your show is a pretty good place to start. There are a quite a few involved with just setting up the website and getting a domain name registered. It gives you the opportunity to practice publishing something, but the code itself should be minimal.
@kolev 100%

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.

@logan Claude Code is awesome! I use Webstorm, but am somehow just hearing about Junie. My only complaint with Claude is that I can easily run through $20 of tokens in a day if I’m not careful. It sounds like Junie can run somewhat locally, so that might be a good alternative. How has your experience been with it?

Your reminder that HTML is pretty fantastic all on its lonesome.

HTML without CSS

HTML looks and functions well by default without the need for CSS or JavaScript. This page includes the majority of HTML elements, including semantic HTML elements, that have a unique visual style or interaction.

@siracusa I always assumed the preview icon was an ink bottle. I am only now noticing the “preview 10x” text in the new design, which was apparently already there in the old one. Now I’m not sure what it’s supposed to represent at all.
@mewizard GitHub pages usually works for me.
