I guess I'm Stockholm syndrome'd by shit-tier academic software, I expected this to suck but it is really nice :)

What a wonderful interface into a nicely digitized version of a very old book. 💜 @internetarchive https://t.co/sugDhzaHrZ

I had reason to find a high fidelity copy of a definition from The Century Dictionary this morning. Look how fast you can flip between pages. The slider on the bottom works great!

And the book is lovely. Look at these illustrations https://t.co/8COYLZtANY

@Virtual1nstinct @gigafelon That's awesome - I saw them earlier this year and couldn't get them out of my head. I love how handily they fit a date stamp. And they're just neat.

@Virtual1nstinct @gigafelon Thank you for post about the <ruby> tag - new to me. I read this tweet a few days ago and the knowledge was fresh when I realized I needed little annotations for Cistercian numerals for part of a project. I used the tag when making this: https://t.co/lVOCWGt5AD

Which means I can now embed a Linux VM in the webpage for my 'fortunate' project so you can play with it using your browser: https://t.co/C5JLndJafB

Made an embeddable iframe for this. <iframe src="hxxps://unfortunate.micahrl.com/iframe.html" title="How Unfortunate" style="width: 1000px; height: 500px;" ></iframe> (Fix the hxxps; changed so Twitter wouldn't munge it with their link shortener.) https://t.co/V9QFsBREzJ

So that’s it. Nah, I don’t want much more to do with this. I unlocked to at least promote with my modest audience, and here is the death knell of independent promotion. Nothing is left for anything that isn’t already capital backed or authorized. https://t.co/TZMNMXDOtt

working for a game company is wild. folks are posting about (and happy with) the call of duty anti cheat news, claiming "hacking is a scourge" wild. imagine trusting Activision, not just with kernel privs, but like, generally

Dear ops folks, please stop writing your shell scripts with shorthand options. --verbose over -v. Favour accessibility, clarity and searchability over concision. Use shorthand options only for unshared manual work.

@default_friend For myself, I try to get out of my work space until I’m creative again. Host friends for dinner, try to go on longer bike rides, meet strangers. Eventually my solitary side will reassert itself and I’ll crave spending time on creative projects alone. My version of “balance”.

As an aside, I think it would be cool to build a little Tor community with IndieAuth. Tor is actually nicer in some respects as you don’t need to pay for a domain name or bother with HTTPS and you can host from home. (Of course, you do have to set up Tor itself.)

Anyway, I’m happy I made this work tonight. Next round of work will be learning security best practices for web apps. Might not get that done for a few weeks though as I’m off to Big Bend next week 🥾
2021-10-12 05:15:34 +00:00	@mrled
Probably needs considerable attention to security hardening 😬

I hadn’t used Flask before, only CherryPy, but wow is it easier to start with Flask. Wish I’d started with Flask 10 years ago. I even added tests, like, I never add tests for side projects, but it was SOEZ

IndieAuth is pretty interesting. It let’s you log in to supporting websites with your own website - sort of like “Log in with Facebook” except it’s your own domain, not tied to a third party.

Specifications SHOULD use keywords as described in RFC2119. Implementors MAY find this extremely annoying and unergonomic, but spec authors MUST NOT acknowledge how ugly it makes their documents.

How the fuck did scribd, the website that has only pirated PDFs which grew by requiring you to upload a trash file before downloading, buy slideshare, the company hosting real work products. https://t.co/PL5SuUlzYL
2021-10-07 03:14:08 +00:00	@tomfgoodwin
Just noticed Scribd bought Slideshare. and are now charging people $9.99 per month to download stuff we've all uploaded to them for free. Not shocked, nor complaining, but a useful reminder of the ways ownership words in the digital age when using sites for free.

Oh an of course the infamous “in this essay I will” - it’s bad writing because it’s boilerplate, can be rewritten right out.

1/ One thing about "imposter syndrome" is the feeling that you aren't as interesting as somebody with lots of twitter followers. The opposite is probably true. I'm likely more interested in you than you are in me. https://t.co/mQEkIY72Te
2021-10-06 02:33:50 +00:00	@mrled
Often I'll find myself rewriting awkward opening sentences like that. "Hey, just wanted to ping you about doing X" instead of "Will/Did you X?". Part of it is trying to be non-confrontational, but I wonder if it's also that we see sentences like that in writing very often.
2021-10-06 02:33:49 +00:00	@mrled
Noticed how weird constructions like "wanted to let you know about..." are. Like describing your actions in third person. I wonder if this construction comes from a very literary culture. Do cultures without such a long literary and/or educational tradition talk like this?

A lot of times someone comes up to me at a con and says something like, “hi I’m Dan and I follow you on Twitter” and then leaves like I’m Cher I want to meet you. If you are going to do this, please also share a photo of your pet or the best meal you’ve had lately or something.
