Notes from 9 March 2020

Q: What can you do as a consumer?

Answer from Jeremy: Use #Firefox and anti-tracking software Answer from Remy: Don't be a consumer - build for the Web platform, make and share things

Jeremy: Nowadays, having a website is "disruptive" - use that to your advantage!

#TechNott

A great point from @adactio - don't resign yourself to inevitability. We can change the way that the Web works, we can take back our control, as long as we fight for it. #TechNott #IndieWeb

"Reducing complexity increases chance of mass adoption" - this is the reason that folks are seeing this content on Twitter on #TechNott rather than directly on my own blog.

But the #IndieWeb are trying to make things better - come and help us build a better Web which works for you!

Also very cool to see the original Web browser had built-in developer tools to allow you to change the content / styles of any web page! #TechNott

This talk from @adactio and @rem at #TechNott is also really interesting to think about how websites and applications age, and potentially whether someone will be resurrecting something you've built in the future?

I thought I spotted a rel=webmention link on the slides earlier at #TechNott 🤓 #IndieWeb

Hand sanitiser being brought down the food queue is a great idea at #TechNott to prevent #coronavirus

I both really like the idea of, and am terrified of, not having a staging environment. Having seen how some folks treat their staging environment, I'd never wish users to experience that in production! #TechNott

#TechNott tonight is buzzing! We've got a packed room, and lots of faces I don't recognise - awesome stuff 🙌

Is anyone at #TechNott interested in #PHP? You're in luck, because Thursday is #PHPMiNDS and we've got the awesome @akrabat speaking about Slim 4: PHP's Microwebframework

More details on the website https://phpminds.org/ and the Meetup https://www.meetup.com/PHPMiNDS-in-Nottingham/events/268999773/

Very excited for the talks tonight at #TechNott - @NickyWrightson's talk at #DevOpsDays London was really insightful for how to run on-call right, and I've heard great things about the talk from @adactio and @rem - hope to see y'all there!
