I use the mute settings for this, you can mute words for a fixed time (up to 30 days) or forever 🙌

He should have installed a drain to go along with the sink 😅

Got stuck in my head too, everything about the show is top tier. Can’t wait for season 2!

Is that the frame TV on top too? Looks goood 🤩

Very similar looking and I mistook the cornstarch for sugar 😅

I thought they were Welsh cakes at first, they look so good 😋

It’s good to run it every few weeks too as there have been so many people moving over :)

Design and tech twitter acolyte, I barely ever posted but keeping up with everyone, liking stuff and sharing articles / insights offline was my shy-kid way of being part of the scene. Feel free to follow me back, I’m making more effort to avoid just hitting “like” here 😅

Sick decks dude 🤟

The best kind of code :D

Had a go at working with the Bluesky API, It's a little rough around the edges especially with OneOf types and quirkyness with embeds I still need to understand, but it didn't take long to get going with it. It's been ages since social media was this open 😊

Example of Bluesky Likes to RSS feed with a Next.js API route

Got an update 🙌 I have a hacky version working using IFTTT to read an RSS feed generated on-demand with an api route in next.js. It logs in with an app password, gathers all of the account's likes, and then formats and outputs them to XML. Still tweaking the script but... it's something 😁

Great points here. There was a really fun talk at ServerlessDays Cardiff this year from Sarah Hamilton and @lukehedger.bsky.social that went over a similar theme; bugs are inevitable, so putting an emphasis on observability to catch those bugs and fix them is worth more long term than 100% coverage.

💯 sometimes the best way out for me without making things worse is to just stash the work, reset back to a good commit, and apply the stash. Resolving issues with arcane git magic isn’t worth the hassle, conflicts, etc when there’s work to get done 🫠

Damn I was just starting to get used to Arc 😬

Post a picture you took (no description) to bring some zen to the timeline

Skógafoss waterfall, Iceland. The grass and moss-covered hill side ends abruptly with a sheer drop which the shallow rocky river falls over.

To me that's the perfect use case for linting rules; especially in a big PR things like that can get missed so easily, nice :D

Yeah same, I haven't had to worry about email clients for a few years and I'd resigned myself to thinking the status quo of arbitrary workarounds and client-specific styles would hold forever 😂 I hope these changes don't add too much overhead and help to encourage other clients to get up to date

That's such a cool tool! What was the rule you put together?

@benjystanton.bsky.social are there more Welsh designers joined yet?

I had no idea Thunderbird was still being actively worked on😮

Picked this up last year after seeing a friend’s and I’ve hooked up it for volume/fast scrolling through code/long pages. I don’t think I’ve even scratched the surface of what it can do yet 😅

This is the best way for sure

That takes me back :0

There must be a dev feed, anyone have a good one?

A screenshot of a BlueSky search for “devsky”. The feeds tab shows “No results found for devsky”.

Great pack, thanks for sharing :) Would be cool if we could save the starter pack “posts” tab as a feed 🤔

Caught my eye a few months ago, looks like an amazing tool especially with the self-hosting options

I think this sums up my entire social media experience so far 😅

Had a great time watching these for a few months, maybe it’s the low stakes / high drama but it’s such a laugh

The “Quiet Posters” one is awesome, I don’t always want to see “what’s hot/popular” and so far it’s super personal and fun stuff that feels way less like the classic social media wall of sound bsky.app/profile/did:...

GitHub - KiwiKilian/eleventy-plugin-og-image: Create Open Graph images in Eleventy using your templates, data and CSS. Fast and reproducible, without a headless browser.

This looks really similar to the cloudflare / vercel versions: github.com/KiwiKilian/e... You specify the template in code, then pass in the props like title or description using the shortcode. I’ve not used 11ty myself yet but looks really fun to hack around with :)

What framework / platform are you using? There are plugins for most of the major frameworks that let you submit or include the text, images, or colours and once it’s generated it’s usually cached or saved to a static folder/cdn. If you’re hand-making a static site, you can still use a worker too

Been using the remarkable 2 for a few years now, it’s a great device but wish it had slightly more going for it. I want to read feeds / news etc without having to email myself snapshots of pages and that sort of thing. It’s outstanding for note-taking though, I barely ever use paper anymore
