  • This is close to my take on #AI #webdev #programming as I've seen. https://kyrylo.org/software/2025/03/27/learn-to-code-ignore-ai-then-use-ai-to-code-even-better.html AI is a x10 multiplier – but 10x good or 10x not so good. If you know code then use it as a tool, it's good IMO. But just like copy/pasting from StackOverview without looking, using it blindly or with ignorance…

  • Why I 🧡 the web. Someone (re)made Glider for the #Apple ][ I remember playing this when i was a kid! Yes i'm old! https://www.colino.net/wordpress/en/glider-for-apple-ii/ You can play this in your browser! 🎉 https://apple2ts.com/?color=green#https://github.com/colinleroy/a2tools/releases/latest/download/glider-en.po #oldschool

  • #Firefox forks: https://lwn.net/Articles/1012453/ Honestly, nothing here really interests me but i'm going to try Zen. The fact they rely on Mozilla for all the heavy lifting is a big part. Right now i'm on #Chrome as my primary. I work on the web and although the browser renders are 99% the same I want to…

  • Don't recommend games, but this is nice. "Bubbles": A vanilla #JavaScript web game. EVER COOLER. You can build your own levels with my builder tool: https://ehmorris.com/bubbles/builder/ and share the levels. https://ehmorris.com/bubbles/ #game

  • Sadly between #Firefox marketshare and #Mozilla doing…. whatever, i'm making the transition to Chrome from Firefox as the primary browser. In my line of work , I need to regularly see what my customers see for better or for worse. Adding precautions but Firefox and Safari will still be used. I'd rather not deal w/…

  • In honor of Gene Hackman passing: "Some people can read 'War and Peace' and come away thinking it's a simple adventure story. Others can read the ingredients on a chewing gum wrapper and unlock the secrets of the universe." #GeneHackman (Superman 1978) https://youtu.be/_KJr1jOLMqw?si=P-4XGPokCfXptFOT&t=15

  • Just because you have spent years in [fill in the blank] platform / tech doesn't mean you are giving up or "betraying it" by exploring rivals, competitors, or different tech entirely. Tactfully expanding your knowledge is a must for those in #webdev. Gives you more options but makes you a better developer.

    If you're looking for "professional social media screenshots" in a pinch, then https://postspark.app/ is worth a look. #socialmedia #webtools

  • A comprehensive list of 500 #JavaScript project ideas for developers of all skill levels. #opensource and community-driven. https://github.com/deepakkumar55/ULTIMATE-JAVASCRIPT-PROJECT "Whether you're a beginner looking for your next coding challenge or an experienced developer seeking inspiration, this list has something for everyone." #webdev #programming

  • Looking for online personality tests similar to https://tests.enneagraminstitute.com/ (but not this – while mine is mostly accurate, my friend's doesn't seem so). Doesn't have to be free (the one above was $20) but looking for personality tests like this for better communicate between co-workers or even spouses. #personality

    Just wanted to share my 15 year old daughter's wedding anniversary gift to me (a Trekkie).😍 I don't know (or care) where she found the photo to use a a guide but the painting is 100% her working hard in a garage for a few afternoons. 🖖🏻 #StarTrek

  • I've seen more impressive #AI workflows in #webdev (much with #WordPress) in the past two weeks then ever. I'm adding Rich Tabor's "Experimenting with Conversational Voice AI" to the list as well. https://rich.blog/voice-ai/ "…built a WordPress block using Cursor and the PlayAI Web SDK."

  • This is an interesting take, and as I work more with #AI and #webdev it's something I'll keep in mind. "AI is Stifling Tech Adoption"https://vale.rocks/posts/ai-is-stifling-tech-adoption "AI models are influencing technology, and that the technologies currently in use – especially those that reached popularity before November 2022, when ChatGPT was released, or that are otherwise in…

  • Nice post on: "Why Blog If Nobody Reads It?" 🤔 https://andysblog.uk/why-blog-if-nobody-reads-it/ Short answer (IMO): Writing helps the thought process and helps future you. Same reason why I post links on social. In the end I don't care if they get traction – they get sucked into https://davidbisset.social for future me.

  • #Mastodon timeline: "I don't understand the #Superbowl" "Let others enjoy it""Not into Football" Some comments on commercials. Majority of posts as usual. #Bluesky non-stop #Superbowl posts and jokes (some even funny). No shade on either and it's probably the audience and a little of the BS algo, but as someone not watching the game the…

  • "Use #RSS to read newsletters" https://www.kryogenix.org/days/2025/02/08/use-rss-to-read-newsletters/ Pretty nice reminder, and how to accomplish this even if the newsletters don't have a feed or even on the web.

  • Not a big #MacOS Spaces user, but i'm impressed how my daughter uses it. This is an #opensource "virtual workspace manager" that looks nice. https://github.com/wojciech-kulik/FlashSpace

  • Celebrating 22 years with the wife! She is so smart, she made our wedding day 02/02/02. I'm forgetting one of my three kid's names at the moment… but I won't forget that date. Or her. Or that day.
