In a time where the industry is dominated by AI hype and ruthless capitalism, @ffconf.org never fails to remind us of the human side of tech. I hope we never lose that!

Dogs rule, cats drool #ffconf

This is one of my biggest gripes with AI generated code. People don't understand what they're committing and that's so dangerous. #ffconf with @jesslynnrose.bsky.social & @edaeren.bsky.social

If anyone would like a Fastmail referral code, let me know...! #ffconf

For anyone at #ffconf looking for alternative news sources I also recommend @404media.co

In 2019, @laurakalbag.bsky.social gave a talk at #ffconf that convinced me to drop Google where possible, and I've been a Fastmail user since. Today, @chetbox.com is giving the spiritual successor to that talk, exploring Big Tech's influence over politics, our data, and the oversaturation of AI

The first talk of the day at #ffconf highlighted the still-abysmal gender and ethnicity disparity in the tech industry. As long as data is compiled and processed by a non-diverse group, we can't train models and build products that could ever be anything but biased.

It's #ffconf day!!!!

I can't recommend this conf enough and I'm sad it's the last one! Don't miss out!

🚨 Announcing All Day Hey! 2026. Celebrating ten years of the conference. The final one. Let's go! A curated conference for curious developers, designers, and technology leaders.

#BTConf Berlin FOMO begins! Have fun for me

Does anybody have some links to some fuckin' rad designer or developer portfolio sites? Would love to see!

Happy halloween from my minion!

Halloween costume ideas for birders.

Just built my first scroll-driven animation for production and you BET I got that dopamine when it worked

"It's very clear that a lot of the new AI era is about dismantling the web's original design... a new Internet where there's no concept of consent for either users or those who create content and culture — everything is just raw materials, and all of us are fair game."

@piccalil.li hello! I have been using JS for a long time, will there be things I can get out of JS for Everyone? (The name suggests yes). I want to know the weird stuff, basically

My dog jingles a string of bells to be let outside but she's started doing it while we're eating breakfast in the hopes we'll leave our food unattended to go and open the back door

I don't know if I'm ready for Bloodlines 2 to be mediocre. I love the original so much even with its slightly-unfinished jankiness and patience-testing sewer level.

NO!!!!! - dashare.zone ADMIN

I was married, but I'm not married anymore. Women dont like the vehicle.

“Don’t do a migration just because you don’t like someone else’s technology choices.” - Sophie Koonin @localghost.dev shared her lessons learned from a large-scale TypeScript migration at @monzo.com www.youtube.com/watch?v=a1Bq...

I'm so tired today that I clapped at the end of a meeting

Today's bonk on the head goes to Notion, for making their little "Use our AI assistant!" badge animate every so often and therefore distracting me from the doc I'm trying to read. As if Clippy couldn't get any more annoying

React major version upgrade

Can anyone recommend a decent sub-£100 soldering iron? Mine's rubbish

The layout of this paper is expert level trolling! journals.uc.edu/index.php/vl...

I'm about halfway through this brilliant book and thoroughly recommend it for any fellow etymology nerds (or anyone who's ever attempted to teach English as a foreign language and come up against some seriously difficult questions about why we spell stuff like we do!)

Major @webdevconf.com FOMO but then I am rather enjoying this view

English village names never fail to delight

It feels like the internet‘s cooked us into presenting every position in the strongest moral terms and responding to every disagreement as an all-out attack that must be annihilated before it destroys everything and it seems not great

Ok sure the new Taylor Swift album is out but so is the 20th anniversary edition of Chemistry by Girls Aloud (the one with Biology which is one of the greatest pop songs ever made don't @ me)

this app should have been a website

If you're at @nordicjs.com I'll shortly be making a room full of people question my coding skills as I try and recreate a website without being able to look at a browser...

Lurking in the background there in 2023

I am having a BLAST watching @liebefonts.bsky.social demo WordArt-inspired color fonts she's created @nordicjs.com

Taking psychic damage from descriptions of major version upgrades courtesy of @majapw.bsky.social @ @nordicjs.com

Ok but for real the 5 min @nordicjs.com bird-themed lightning talk by @ninnivictoria.bsky.social was an absolute highlight 🐦

Please join me in congratulating Woman on her appointment

Yes yes YES THIS. The best thing a web dev can do is put the frameworks down sometime and learn how it really works. @una.im @ @nordicjs.com

I just love css so much ;_;

If there's anyone who knows how to make an entrance it's @una.im at @nordicjs.com

Conference badges but make them pretty @nordicjs.com

(almost) all the speakers at @nordicjs.com 2025 in a neat little starter pack

Hej @nordicjs.com friends! Thanks for being such a great audience. I'll be at the conference tomorrow and at the after party if you want to trade migration horror/success stories.
