Happy birthday 🎂

I went for Cherry MX Clears as they're a nice mix between clicky while also being fairly quiet. I've got noise dampeners on the one I use for work, so it's less noticeable when in a meeting. Clears can be hard to get, so I found that Cherry MX Browns are a good alternative

👀 Yes!

Congrats 👏🏽 was rooting for you to find something good so glad you have!

"VP + Head of Eng at Shopify" liked that tweet 😬

Nice, how are you finding it? Able to share what you're upto? 👀

I use it for personal PR notifications, and have used it in the past for reminders for a team's pending PRs to a shared channel. Also used it to subscribe to push/pull_request/issue events to a repo, and found it's been alright

Out of interest, which functionality are you thinking? Microformats2? Micropub? POSSE? I think we've got some with Microformats2 markup somewhere 🤔

We've really been enjoying the Jamie Oliver by Tefal range - little bit pricier than some other options but well worth it

Arch on my desktop/laptop, Debian on my servers, Alpine in my containers

I'm using Matomo (formerly Piwik) and find it's pretty great and it's good as a self hosted thing.

I generally recommended against Google Analytics

A colleague of mine runs https://squeaky.ai which I've not used but may be worth a look.

What are you using to automate the posting? Could be in there you can bulk delete the posts it's created?

Just listened to the latest Cup o' Go podcast which mentioned (paid) https://boot.run which may be worth a look too!

I wrote about how I picked up Go last year that may be of help 🤞🏽 got some resources linked out from it

Cause he's a trickster? 😝

Interesting to read! We've been using #Gousto for a few years now and it's been really great, considering we used to struggle to cook very basic things / not make the time to cook "properly" and I've found now that I really do enjoy cooking

I've got a Hugo site that uses IndieWeb technologies (Micropub, Microformats, Webmention) to also interoperate with the Fediverse and Mastodon.

My site publishes an average of 50 commits a day, most of which are done using Micropub (using a custom built Micropub server).

Then I use Bridgy Fed to do the IndieWeb-to-Mastodon connectivity, sending it a webmention when I post a new thing, and it then syndicates it to my followers in the Fediverse. Bridgy Fed's rendering of content isn't maybe as flexible as you would want - I believe it's set to only syndicate specific things, but that may be something we can improve and/or make configurable!

You could use Netlify functions for your Micropub endpoint - I know a few folks have done that before (including Carol Gilabert)!

One thing to be cautious of is as you're starting to publish more content, avoiding spamming folks with Webmentions.

For the PESOS items, I've been doing it with my step counts, and similar could probably be done on Netlify with a scheduled function to grab the latest entries and publish them to your site.

I like when I can add a cover letter as an optional thing if I want to dig into a couple of areas and add more context my CV may be not as deep on, but it's nice when it can be optional not required!

I've raised this upstream, but still having trouble finding a perfect reproduction case 🤔

Have you seen things like Dangerfiles? May fit the bill for you - they've got Ruby and JS versions (ie https://github.com/danger/danger-JS)

FYI this does mean folks following your feed no longer see the Week Notes posts 👀 https://monocle.p3k.io/preview?url=http%3A%2F%2Fbarryfrost.com%2F

Writing Go has got me excited again with building things, in particular having a framework for building CLIs like Cobra has made a big difference and makes me feel like I can be super productive building a thing!

Nice! Are you thinking you'll do that long term - backfill from Spotify data - or use some other means to record them as you listen?

This is amazing, thanks for making this available for us all to use! I'm integrating it into dmd.tanna.dev today 😁

Thanks Jonathan! Yeah I've been doing stuff more on the software dependencies (ie using third party Open Source projects) rather than project management dependencies so not sure this would help here!

Not Vercel but if I was gonna be doing it I'd reach for the Architect Framework as it makes it straightforward to get lots of infra set up to handle this sort of thing

Thanks for the report! I'll have a look tomorrow. I've seen that before as an issue, and although I will fix it, I recommend my Microformats feed as it's a little richer in content, if your feed reader supports it

We're seeing it up in Nottingham too 😥

I thought that was just us, we've had a very painful week or so of slow service. But yeah working today is gonna be hard 😬

It's my favourite API to work on for many reasons 😁

These are awesome well done 👏🏽

Worked it out! It was a Family Guy episode https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Take_My_Wife_(Family_Guy)

A friend of mine discovered her belly button had had a stone in it for years

Happy trans day of visibility 💜

💜

Also !aw

TIL, that's a very cool comeback!

Cool that it's still in use though 🙌🏽

I bought a Packed Pixel back when I was doing student hackathons and travelling between Nottingham and London a lot to see family, and it made a huge difference to productivity at events and on trains. Not used mine for at least a couple of years but I probably would if I was still out and about lots, if that helps make the decision to resist harder 😁

👀

Not that I've done the newsletter route but I'd say whatever helps you writing more (consistently) should be good. Newsletter wise you may get more visibility of who's reading your content, but I've found that blogging has given me a good outlet for thoughts, and for my ADHD brain doesn't force me to ie wait until Friday to post a new blog post

What's the thought behind newsletter vs just plain blogging?

I'll have a look at some code I've got to see if I can reproduce the same issue, but one alternative is using a Facade pattern to wrap the client (example code is Java but same intent)

Thanks!

I've found the same with some books so I've needed to submit the book data myself that I've sourced ie through Amazon

Thank you ☺ ah I'm glad to hear that, congrats for doing the work to get there 👏🏽 how are you finding post-diagnosis life?

Whenever anyone talks about acronyms, my favourite one to mention is TLA (two/three letter acronym)

I'd love to read it, you've had an awesome impact in those 10 years 👏🏽

I assume this is asking for just London folks?
