Final RIP to all my manifest v2 Chrome browser extensions from the last 10 years. The era of browser extensions was so fun, it felt like you could add some sugar and spice onto your already exciting web.

Was going through my @codepen.io history, and found some 2017-ish stuff with a bunch of problems I'd never really solved, but now I guess it feels super real and human-y... so up with a homepage redesign it went! tholman.com

I’ve always taken a policy of taking note mentally loosely around what’s changing but only visit in a deep way when I think something I’m trying to do seems too hard. So much CSS lately but unless my thinking is too in the box, haven’t had to really hit the books for a while.

the internet has lost *legibility of effort* - the ability to easily whether something took meaningful human work It's why we all catalogue vibe-code tells. And I bet that we'll find new ways to show our humanity through our work eieio.games/blog/legibil...

Screenshot of blog post. Full text:

So:

Lots of work is easier because of LLMs, and
Lots of heuristics we used to gauge effort are broken because of LLMs, so
Conveying effort to others is harder because of LLMs
And:

“Someone spent time on this” is a proxy for “this is worth engaging with” and
I appreciate projects that take a lot of effort and
I like it when people appreciate that I spent effort on something
But also:

Making a good thing still requires making lots of decisions, and
Making lots of decisions is still very hard, despite LLMs, so
Making good things is still very hard
As a creative technologist I’ve found this paralyzing. And as someone who loves novel internet projects I’ve found it frustrating. I’ve heard similar things from many of my friends.

What software (and writing, to an extent) is missing now is legibility of effort - the ability to tell at a glance whether something took a human meaningful work.
