This week’s coffee is Sunday Morning from Ambros Coffee Co

Notes This is mostly intended as a resource that I can point people towards as an introduction to atproto, not for folks who've already consumed the koolaid I've been excited about the potential of atproto for awhile, initially by the data portability aspect, but more recently I'm digging the idea that it's essentially a giant...

This week’s coffee is Santa Rosa from Ambros Coffee Co

https://www.youtube.com/shorts/alDlD68ATE0 This is a good way to use up some old rice. It's fairly quick, works as a meal on its own, or doubles as a side depending on protein. The sauce in this version is essentially just butter and kimchi juice, which all gets absorbed into the rice. I added a hotdog, but you...

I created a simple WordPress plugin called Don't Mess Up Prod, which adds a little environment indicator to your admin bar. If you flip around between multiple environments (local, dev, staging, prod), you might find it useful. It has definitely saved me a few headaches. This was also partly an exercise in releasing a plugin...

https://youtube.com/shorts/-ZvLFGWaEAk Making a quick Japanese style curry. I'm leaving out the protein, so I can use it for a few different meals during the week. I had some leftover chicken strips that I used for the video, sausages or tofu would be another easy option. Url: https://youtube.com/shorts/-ZvLFGWaEAk

Reviving an old blog feature. My coffee this week is Brazil Mogiana from Happy Goat, for pour over.

https://youtube.com/shorts/nHZZncAJoIA Quick and easy asian-style cucumber salad. It should take about 5 minutes to make and half an hour in the fridge. Just need cucumbers, salt, vinegar, sesame oil and sesame seeds. It should be good for a few days.

Today, Last.fm begins a new chapter as an independent company. Ownership has changed, but the product you use every day has not. Your account, your listening history, and your data remain exactly wh...

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6qu38WO_0p8 Attempting to make little cinnamon rolls with puff pastry. They turned out alright, but not entirely what I was expected. Was my first time working with puff pastry and my brain didn't make the obvious connection with things puffing up. I was attempting to recreated these little cinnamon rolls that my grandmother used to...

Scott Riley tested free and open source design tools out when researching his course, Mindful Design. They actually worked out better than Figma ever could, as he explains in this article with loads…

I've been enjoying using Aeronaut, a Bluesky app for mac that feels quite native. Still tend to use the site in browser, but it's a nice dedicated option to have.

A puzzle game about enclosing horses.

I just finished up listening to the audiobook version of There Is No Antimemetics Division by qntm. Can safely say that I really enjoyed it and would highly recommend. That said, I loved This Is How You Lose The Time War, loaned it to a few people and don't think any of them finished it....

The Good Internet: How Fandom Can Reclaim the Web. This talk by Sacha Judd at FFConf was stellar. I’m in the process of finding my back to the weird web.

From Requiem For Early Blogging: [I]f you wanted people to read your blog, you had to make it compelling enough that they would visit it, directly, because they wanted to. And if they wanted to respond to you, they had to do it on their own blog, and link back. [...] I think of this...

From Programming is mostly thinking, an article that I meant to post awhile back: If programming is 1/12th motion and 11/12ths thinking, then we shouldn't push people to be typing 11/12ths of the time. We should instead provide the materials, environment, and processes necessary to ensure that the thinking we do is of high quality....

How to put Tailscale on a jailbroken Kindle. Might have been fun to try this, but my aging Kindle seems to have updated itself already. It would be neat to be able to drop books to it on the fly. I end up just using the email epubs to yourself feature, it's a bit fiddly...

I bought a copy of Complete CSS from Picalli.li a few weeks ago, with the intention of upping my CSS game. It's old territory for me, but my layout techniques pre-date flex... floats, clear fixes and IE hacks. Looking forward to learning some new techniques as I update the site. Go beyond syntax expertise and...

The Ship of Theseus, also known as Theseus's Paradox, is a paradox and common thought experiment about whether an object (in the most common stating of the paradox, a ship) is the same object after having all of its original components replaced with others over time. I'm playing around with ThemeSwitcher Pro from WebDevStudios. It's...

Meant to post this article a year ago when I first read it, For The Love of God, Make Your Own Website.This almost reads like me in my early teens: Browsing the internet used to be a hobby of mine. Ever since my dad got us a modem when I was around ten, I spent...
