I decided to build a "clap" feature into my #IndieWeb blog, so visitors can show appreciation anonymously and easily, if they want! I wrote a little about it here https://www.byjp.me/posts/easy-appreciation/; it uses https://val.town (I wish they had a Fediverse account, so I could tag them) and progressive enhancement to be useful and easy even for folks without Javascript browsers ☺️

get into computers, they told me when i was a kid, you'll have fun and possibly a rewarding career! reality: my computers have been interdicted by intelligence agencies to install god knows what on them before i receive them, presumably in the hope of extricating my signing keys, i have to deal with something called "docker", and another thing called "kubernetes", there is a whole profession called DevOops and i have to deal with entitled pricks who say my projects are "dead" because i did not review their error-ridden patches fast enough for their liking

I love people who say “what is missing from society is support for opposing and dissenting points of view.” I then ask them, “did you schedule your pro-cancer rally this year?” Yeah! Go cancer! Those cells have every right to be unique and different and thrive! 🎉

@shanselman I think my biggest concern now is 'code review now comes with a rousing game of Among Us', but I'm still weighing that concern in a larger context.

Ten years ago today, a new app arrived to strip the "media" out of social media, reducing messaging to two little letters. It burned bright, but not for long.

I recently went through a job search, and I thought it would be good to do a mini retrospective on the whole experience. Overall, it was a better candidate experience than the last time I interviewed so I want to believe that the industry is making progress.
