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.

  • 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…

  • In reply to @davidbisset. That will get sucked up into my davidbisset.social, that's a good one i'll admit.
