INTERVIEW WITH THE VAMPIRE SECOND INTERVIEW WITH THE VAMPIRE OVER ZOOM TO MEET MORE OF THE TEAM UNFORTUNATELY, YOU HAVE NOT BEEN SUCCESSFUL ON THIS OCCASION, BUT WE HOPE YOU'LL APPLY FOR FUTURE POSITIONS WITH THE VAMPIRE

Feeling a little bit of hope today, as a treat

Industry-wide burnout

i write to you with solemn news. i am in paris, writing my life’s only masterwork. i spend my days drinking good espresso and smoking inexpensive cigarettes, writing clear and hard about what hurts. as such, i cannot ‘Log On’ - and friend - i will not attend your ‘laser-focused mesh network webinar’

A new chapter begins! The all-new #btconf website is here. Fresh, friendly, and full of love. Huge thanks to @mikekus.bsky.social for the design and @bastianallgeier.com for all the work bringing it to life – with @getkirby.com of course! Feels great to finally share this one. beyondtellerrand.com

Browser support for view transitions is rocketing and there's not many better out there to help you understand how to implement them than Cyd Stumpel. piccalil.li/blog/start-i...

Yo, my band shade_cycle has a single out this Friday 31st called ‘Snakeskin Deathbed’ and it’ll be on all of the big platforms. If you like alternative metal you might get into it. 🖤👊🏻

love too see folks respond well to @likethecolour.red (a good friend and frequent co-conspirator of mine) latest heater on the terminal.ahumanfuture.co blog; heartening to be so soulfully reminded that excellent prose and passionate appeals still win the hearts & minds of Men every time

'how much would you risk to be in it's presence' gave me fucking chills dude. good god.

We also released a very silly music video for it that was super fun to make www.youtube.com/watch?v=ofby...

Just released our final single from the @brutalligators.bsky.social album and this is one I'm super proud of open.spotify.com/album/4q0t4W...

Yeh, autumn is pretty decent

A night of drinking in Leeds which descended into a deranged conversation about apes and slurp juices that was essentially a minting event for Lab Monkes and Special forces

i once again assert that it was a bad idea that we built 40% of the world wide web on a single company's infrastructure

This is the most personal project I’ve made in years. I launched a new show called The Callback. It’s weekly web dev news with my dumb humor sprinkled on top. If this pilot does well I get to make more, so watching, liking, and sharing would be DEEPLY appreciated 💜 www.youtube.com/watch?v=eMOD...

"It is curious that in 2025 in the United Kingdom it somehow feels like some sort of act of radical localism to buy a food item with a 30,000 year history made by a business that is not currently listed on the stock exchange" This is a beautiful, eloquent bit of writing to start the day

Colllettivo has some great typefaces under SIL Open Font License: www.collletttivo.it/typefaces

Bit of a random question before I start googling. Does anyone know of any institutions that fund research grants for technology? Work that is along the lines of "I want to research what effect X thing would have on the overall web if it was implemented in the web platform."

Looks like I'll be coming to the end of a contract shortly so will have availability for new projects from later this month Give me a shout if you're on the lookout for frontend dev or design systems work and particularly if you're looking for animations, interactions or anything a bit experimental

As a language-nerd who has worked on a bunch of multi-lingual web projects, it bugs me how so many frameworks and tools seem to see internationalisation as an afterthought. With that in mind, it's really refreshing to see a tutorial that treats multi-language content in such detail

Getting ready to redesign my website - Where are we looking for web-license typefaces these days? who's doing good indie work that isn't on one of the massive type services?

fwiw I first learned about the website-publishing-as-gardening / the digital garden metaphor from @maggieappleton.com, who's done some really lovely and comprehensive writing on the topic maggieappleton.com/garden-history

“They are like a cheat code, like a magic door – you enter, and suddenly, you find yourself on the inside of the conversation. The faces, the names, the people behind the blog posts — they become real. And you stop feeling like just being an observer of the Web community. You are now a part of it.”

Thanks for having me @webdevconf.com. What a glorious lil day. Always lush to be reminded there's still lovely folks in this hellscape of an industry.

Heading home to Wales after @webdevconf.com. Had the best time hanging with old friends and making new ones. Cheers to @alexolder.com, @lurkmoophy.bsky.social and all the speakers for putting on an absolute banger yet again 💛

@scott.is had a blistering quickfire talk that crammed more wisdom and common sense in 15 minutes than I've taken from most all day events of recent years. I forgot to take any photos but I clearly remember: DESIGNERS, learn to code. DEVELOPERS, learn to design. Both of you: LEARN TO COLLABORATE. 🙌🏾

Internet Friends gather at #webdevconf

“So there was 53 fucks and 8 shits in that talk. No cunts, surprisingly enough…” “Brendan Eich was in it” #WDC2025

We guess it’s never too early to start planning next year…

reply to this with yr cool or very uncool personal site, i’m wrapping up my slides for @webdevconf.com tomorrow and need a few more examples :)

Just to add to the many similar posts I'm seeing today, I'm on my way to Bristol ahead of @webdevconf.com

It's great to see everyone on their way to Bristol for WDC2025 tomorrow! There is still time to grab a ticket if you want to be there! webdevconf.com

Turnstile with jazz solos is perfection. Tiny Desk shows never miss

messenger.abeto.co This is freaking insane. The level of polish necessary for this visual fidelity and it all runs flawlessly on mobile. Hats off.

We all have a choice. The Internet is ours.

2 WEEKS! WDC2025 is taking place on Oct. 10 2025. We're really looking forward to seeing you in Bristol for what will be another awesome day of talks! webdevconf.com

So, from early reports it's looking like the 'f' in Silent Hill f stands for "fuck fuuuuck fuckity FuCK fUcK" aka the sound I make whilst failing to run from some twisted horror

Scott has recorded and nice Q&A to answer some of the questions we've had since opening pre-orders, in typical Scott fashion. www.youtube.com/watch?v=kRhI...
