i just added a page to my personal website that catalogs all the books, music, and games that are deeply important to me in some way. i'm calling it The Loved List, shamelessly stealing the term from Anthony Fantano's website. https://ankursethi.in/the-loved-list/ maybe one day i'll turn this into a nice gallery of sorts, with cover art and links and metadata and all sorts of bells and whistles. for now, a plain list is all i have the time to do. #indieweb #webdev #blog

Hey, good job patching all your browsers for the latest WebP vulnerabilities (there's a new one today, btw). Know what probably didn't get updated? Yeah, all those Electron apps.

Tell the person you love that you love them. This reminds them that the world can be a beautiful place. Tell them by popping out from the corner you weren't in just a moment ago, giving them a mild heart attack and reminding them that the world is surprising and dangerous. Also, sorry @IamMrsGeek

it's actually very ugly how the mainstream tech industry continues to refuse to understand the meaning of consent you can't say "no" anymore, it's always "snooze" or "show less of this" or just "yes" with no other option

"Your trauma made you stronger." No, my trauma made me traumatized, it made me weak, gave me sleepless nights, and memory loss. It gave me feelings I've never wanted. I made myself stronger, by dragging myself out of a dark place, and dealing with consequences that weren't my fault. rkkaaay

A backdoor can be meticulously documented, have limited access, include a variety of security measures, and be carefully developed with the best of intentions. But it's still… …a backdoor.

Did #slack get rid of the ability to customise theme by Hex Code? Weirdly I can click "share" and get a copy of the hexcodes, but there's nowhere to set new ones that I can see? Every day Slack works further away from the independent non-corporate vibe we all used to appreciate.

Open source is at a crossroads with Steve O'Grady from RedMonk (Changelog Interviews #558)

Post details
This week we’re joined by Steve O’Grady, Principal Analyst & Co-founder at RedMonk. The topic today is the definition of open source, the constant pressure on the true definition of the term, and the seemingly small but vocal minority that aim to protect that definition. In Steve’s post Why Open Source Matters, he ...

Hark! A person with #ADHD has decided that this will definitely be the time they will become focused and organised. The other 56 attempts were just a practice run and don't count.

There was a time in my life when I was working on open source, like, every weeknight and weekend. I was contributing to tools I used as well as my own OSS projects. Just firing on all cylinders. After a few years I got super burned out (https://nolanlawson.com/2017/03/05/what-it-feels-like-to-be-an-open-source-maintainer/). These days I kind of feel like my weekends and evenings are sacred. I file bugs on browsers and OSS projects constantly, but I usually do it as part of my 9-to-5. Contributing to the commons is a noble cause, but man is it tiring.

More #strangeloop thoughts. I have a hard time gauging when sensory nuisances impact my stress level, so went with wearing ear protection as much as possible. I intentionally wore the big yellow gun range protectors not just to make it easier to find me, but to more openly show that wearing ear protection is a thing. Had I known it earlier, many conferences would have been much easier to attend. 1/
