Because I'm grouchy about the "everyone uses npm" discourse today, I just wanna remind people the
YOU CAN STILL MAKE WEBSITES IN WHATEVER TOOLS YOU WANT

Also theres a club for it

Question about JS modules:
I'm using a complex-ish library (js + css + svg) for html JSON editors
But the github page only lists "how to build for npm", and lacks any "dist" folder with regular js files, or even a CDN version
Why would this be the case?

I can't stand when projects do this. For me it's a sign that the library is overengineered and I probably don't want to use it anyway. -
Fine, visor up this time – but at least the magnificent Earth still makes an appearance too. All #spacewalk #selfies (and other photos) made possible with a Nikon D5 with a 28 mm lens in a protective housing (visible in center of 2nd photo). #SelfieSunday

TIL about unclaimed property websites run by the state https://unclaimed.oregon.gov for example. I have a surprising amount of money out there to chase down. :|
Yes! A couple years ago I got like $500 from an old bank account I had forgotten about! -

My time at @Vonage is coming to an end. I have ~10 years experience with #devrel or devrel-adjacent work and have given over 100 talks in the last 5 years. If you're in need of a developer advocate/community person with some management experience, let's chat!

I would love to be wrong, but I'm beginning to feel pretty strongly that using IRC for all communications is a good way to keep your OSS community an Old Boys Club
Exactly why we bridge all of IRC, Slack, Matrix and Discord for the IndieWeb chat. Regardless of where you join from it's all the same chat. https://indieweb.org/discuss -

My earlier point is that everyone needing to buy a domain name is an unreasonable expectation for the vast majority of people.
We pool resources for all sorts of things in meatspace society. Most people do not have a reason to be “every person for themself” digitally.
Sure, and in that case, share a domain with a friend/community you trust. My problem was very specifically with your wording "go get a Mastodon somewhere" for these two similar but unrelated reasons:

To parrot back: Do you run your own email server? Unless you're running your own, you don't own your email identity, the server admin does.
I think distributed instances with their own rules are many steps forward from our current centralized position. Better is good.
Nope, email *domain* not email server. My email address is @parecki.com but it's gmail behind it. That means I can swap out gmail for running my own server later and nobody who emails me will ever notice. That's the difference. -
Sure, but I just don't think a blanket "join a mastodon somewhere" statement is really beneficial overall.
