It feels good to be on stage again after a few months off, ending the year with a bang on the @yowconf.bsky.social roadshow #YOW25 This time I've even brought my own entourage, with our whole family having a few adventures along the way

Dan bought knock off tim tams from Aldi the other day, I could absolutely tell the difference. Anyone who can't tell the difference between chocolate and chocolate flavour should not be consulted. I feel we need to have a blind taste test at NDC now. Would there still be stock of the old penguins

The recent commotion around Tylenol and autism reminded me how many neurotypicals are so uninformed about neurodivergence they think neurodivergent conditions (autism, ADHD, OCD etc) are some sort of plague that you can catch if you’re not careful enough.

This was the final slide from my Reasons To Be Cheerful talk yesterday at #DDDPerth and it seems to have resonated with a lot of people so I’m sharing it here.

A very full on day but a wonderful one, back at the stadium for #DDDPerth 2025! It's been such a pleasure to be involved with @dddperth.bsky.social over the past 8 years and to see such support from the community Congrats to the entire committee, we did it again! Now for a well deserved rest

Getting the final things ready for @dddperth.bsky.social this weekend and taking a look at my name badges from previous years (I swear I should have a 2017 one somewhere) Just a couple more days before I can add another to the collection!

No! Tabs absolutely shouldn't be vertical, stop trying to make that happen 😫

Amys Kapers 👩‍💻🏡🐺 @amyskapers.dev · 28/08/2025

Do people genuinely group their browser tabs together? I feel like the only time I ever have a group is when I accidentally make one by dragging a tab wrong and I genuinely haven't ever felt a need for this feature

It must be getting close to @dddperth.bsky.social because Speaker Training has now begun! Over the next month, @jake.ginnivan.net and myself will be working with the speakers to help them prepare for the big day!

I never said you had to stop doing it, but you've acknowledged the problem 🤣 Hey if not for reasons I would be overloading on events just like you right now, and that's not even my real job

I love volunteering at Fringe! (Well the Perth one), this was the first year in a very long time I haven't done it and I really missed it! Enjoy! I've seen some spectacular performances there, often ones I would not have gone to otherwise

Amys Kapers 👩‍💻🏡🐺 @amyskapers.dev · 07/08/2025

while the current official number is hotly debated, there are actually far more tags in HTML than the ~150 commonly cited! that number merely represents the ones we’ve discovered and domesticated — there are potentially thousands more in the creeping unexplored corners of the deep web & dark net

I say that after spending 2 months on a project where for reasons I can't use semantic HTML & have to resort to horrible dirty hacks & working around frameworks & libraries that have decided to break HTML & CSS that should *just work* I need to go and write some static HTML for a bit to cheer up

000

Amys Kapers 👩‍💻🏡🐺 @amyskapers.dev · 22/07/2025

Reminder that it's 1 million times easier & better to just use a semantic HTML element where they exist No faffing about with JavaScript, attributes, ARIA, hacks and workarounds. It just works.

That's what I thought originally, but yes from what I could find it's the missing doctype (the missing lang attribute is a bunch of other issues)
