Da das Kind ab jetzt offenbar 4-5k im Jahr für den Tanzsport verschlingt (s. vorh. Post), könnte ich gut neue Kundschaft / Projekte gebrauchen. 😅

Ich mache momentan am liebsten und besten barrierefreies Vanilla HTML & CSS (Design Tokens) ohne Build-Prozesse mit Kirby.

Und am allerliebsten arbeite ich für linksgrünversiffte Projekte oder zumindest sinnstiftenden Kram.

Also wenn jemand jemanden kennt, der Unterstützung braucht, lasst es mich gerne wissen. 🙂

Gerne retröten. 🥰

In my online undergraduate P5.js course, students are about to begin the module on motion and physics, including a bit of physics simulation using Matter.js. It suddenly occurred to me that I had never seen anybody put together this particular demo before, and I realized it had to be done.

Die Solarfalle der Katherina Reiche

Heizung, PV und Gas: Katherina Reiche steht in der Kritik, wird als Gas-Lobbyistin bezeichnet. Doch ihr könnte Historisches gelingen, meint Redakteur Jan Mahn.

Neues Heizungsgesetz: »Habeck ist doof« ist keine Strategie

Die Union legt die Axt an die deutsche Klimapolitik, die SPD macht mit. Das ist kurzsichtig: ökonomisch, gesundheitlich, geopolitisch und klimatisch. Die Koalitionäre ignorieren etwas Zentrales.

❓Have you noticed that digital products and services are getting worse? So have we!

➡️We have published a report about enshittification, on how and why digital products and services keep getting worse - and how we can turn the trend (hint: open tech, enforcement, public policy++)

Obviously @pluralistic is a big inspiration and help in this work.

More than 80 groups in Europe and the US has joined in a call to action.

A fantastic new German initiative turns the first Sunday of every month into "Digital Independence Day", showcasing ways how to say goodbye to big tech: https://di.day/.

We couldn't be happier that their site is running on Kirby.

Home — Digital Independence Day

An jedem ersten Sonntag im Monat veranstalten wir den Digital Independence Day. Wir holen uns unser freies digitales Leben zurück und wechseln zu demokratiefreundlichen digitalen Alternativen.

Kirby 5.3.1 is now out: https://github.com/getkirby/kirby/releases/tag/5.3.1

It comes with the fixes for user handling in the core and other (visual) regressions introduced by Kirby 5.3.0. We strongly recommend to update all sites from 5.3.0 to 5.3.1.

Slop drives me crazy and it feels like 95+% of bug reports, but man, AI code analysis is getting really good. There are users out there reporting bugs that don't know ANYTHING about our stack, but are great AI drivers and producing some high quality issue reports.

This person (linked below) was experiencing Ghostty crashes and took it upon themselves to use AI to write a python script that can decode our crash files, match them up with our dsym files, and analyze the codebase for attempting to find the root cause, and extracted that into an Agent Skill.

They then came into Discord, warned us they don't know Zig at all, don't know macOS dev at all, don't know terminals at all, and that they used AI, but that they thought critically about the issues and believed they were real and asked if we'd accept them. I took a look at one, was impressed, and said send them all.

This fixed 4 real crashing cases that I was able to manually verify and write a fix for from someone who -- on paper -- had no fucking clue what they were talking about. And yet, they drove an AI with expert skill.

I want to call out that in addition to driving AI with expert skill, they navigated the terrain with expert skill as well. They didn't just toss slop up on our repo. They came to Discord as a human, reached out as a human, and talked to other humans about what they've done. They were careful and thoughtful about the process.

People like this give me hope for what is possible. But it really, really depends on high quality people like this. Most today -- to continue the analogy -- are unfortunately driving like a teenager who has only driven toy go-karts.
