If you want to make your mark in a meeting but have nothing to contribute to the ongoing discussion, try one of these:

"What about AI?"
"Can AI help here?"
"Will this support AI?"
"Is this AI ready?"
"Could AI solve this instead?"

This will make you come across as technically savvy and forward thinking, not as an embarrassing waste of space.

5 months ago today I was laid off from my job and I am currently looking for my next senior front end developer role.

I have 19+ years of experience working with small agencies and Fortune 500 companies and focus on writing clean, accessible HTML, CSS, and JavaScript.

Taking things into my own hands | Ryan Trimble, UX/UI Developer

Learning how to build my own Internet, by self-hosting all the applications.

It's incredibly tough to find a CMS for static sites that is geared for non-techies, but @mrtrimble found one he's pretty stoked about.

Using Pages CMS for Static Site Content Management | CSS-Tricks

I know, I know: there are a ton of content management system options available, and while I've tested several, none have really been the one, y'know? Weird pricing models, difficult customization, some even end up becoming a whole 'nother thing to manage.

Friday was my last day working at 18F. It was a wonderful place to work, filled with extraordinary people, but a few things happened that made me realize I had to leave.

Everything happens so much these days, so I thought I’d write down for myself what happened, and how I made my decision:

(FYI, this post gets into recent #uspol events. If that’s a stressor, or not interesting to you, I’d suggest skipping.)

Moving on from 18F. β€” ethanmarcotte.com

I had a wonderful job, until I didn’t. This is about what happenedβ€”and what is still happening.

Compiling CSS With Vite and Lightning CSS | CSS-Tricks

Are partials the only thing keeping you writing CSS in Sass? With a little configuration, it's possible to compile partial CSS files without a Sass dependency. Ryan Trimble has the details.

Weekly Roundup #39 | Ryan Trimble, UX/UI Developer

I like writing code, writing about code, and reading about code. Here are some links about code 😎.

I have feelings about AI & the web & my experience being trans "in tech" in 2025 - so I screamed some thoughts onto my personal web log.

I hope for all of us a more queer & humane future. Keep building communities & dreaming better paths.

Tech continues to be political

And the politics aren't looking great
