me: "someone is wrong on the internet!"
also me: tries to find out why this person might be misinformed and track down the root cause to help more people not get confused again later
also also me: this sounds like a lot more work than writing an angry comment -

My todo list in @Todoist got so long that I started a new one for a specific project in Notes and it's been working great.
Not sure if this speaks more to the usability of Todoist or my own organizational skills. -
Currently on the plane to Zurich and wow I forgot how much of an accent Swiss German is! 🇨🇭

Getting a head start on IndieWebCamp Brighton hack day! If you are on any page on my website and enter the Konami code, you will get a very small surprise. 😆 -
I'm not gonna say JSON Web Tokens are *bad* (if used properly), but I'm also not gonna say they're *great* either.
Here's an interesting alternative though: PASETO

A thing I started doing: instead of recording my full workshops, I set a voice memo recorder on the podium, and when someone has a question, I press record, repeat the question, and then answer it. Now my recorder is full of Q&A that I can incorporate back into the presentation!

If you've noticed https://OwnYourGram.com has been not working well lately, that's because Instagram is aggressively rate limiting certain requests.
I just updated it so that you can give it the URL of an individual photo and it will import it for you. Importing individual photos avoids a lot of the rate limiting issues so should work a lot better now.
If you've been missing some of your latest photos, feel free to log in and manually import them now! -

It took almost 4 hours, but I finally moved everything from Gogs to Gitea. The migration path was not entirely smooth due to a combination of things, but I'm reasonably confident it is actually working now. Hopefully nothing unexpected surfaces later when I've forgotten everything I've done today.

so PG&E heard everyone was shipping "dark mode" and decided to try it themselves i guess

😱 Came home from a trip to a failed hard drive on one of my home servers. Time to put my backup system to the test!
💾 New drive is on its way, warranty return for the old drive is started.
☁️ Once the new drive arrives, I'll attempt to restore it from my local backup. With any luck, that'll work. Otherwise I'll have to get a drive mailed to me from Backblaze.
🚀 Here we go! -
I replaced Monocle's Font Awesome SVG+JS icons with their SVG sprite icons and it loads soooo much faster now! There was always a visible delay while the JS loaded in the SVG icons. Now it's just handled by the browser with no JS.
I always assumed that it was a slow network causing the issues, but I opened up the browser tools to check and it turns out the slowdown was happening while rendering the page, not when fetching external data. Goes to show it's a good idea to open up the browser tools once in a while to check out what's happening under the hood! -
If you missed my talk from @APIdaysAU last month, I just posted the video online!

More signs you might be traveling too much:
You sit down in a chair and instinctively reach to find the seatbelt.
