@nerdy.dev at one point you had a link to different scroll animations. It was a website I think on its own. It was at the 24 second mark of your sizzle-rizzle post - nerdy.dev/sizzle-rizzle Is there a link to that site or repo?

All I want for bluesky Christmas is for DM’s to not cut off the last few lines of the latest message on mobile. So frustrating

I have to imagine that (and I say this not in jest but as a realization) Standards folks right now with the cloudflare outage primarily due to mitigating vulnerability React Server Components is kind of a 🤷‍♂️ moment for standards teams/folks. Article - blog.cloudflare.com/5-december-2...

I am so confused by what I am seeing/reading by many over on X. What have people actually seen within AI to think a "singularity" is being approached? What have people actually seen to make them think all that is in the future is humans fighting to survive against AI?

Watching someone try to get good at a skill to be mistaken as AI has me reflecting. If you are pursuing craft with tender love and care you DONT OWE ANYONE an explanation if they mistake it for AI

A bit of a vulnerable post by me but we need your help to get us through what has been a more difficult period than 2020. It would be really appreciated if you could read and share in your networks too 💛 bell.bz/its-been-a-v...

It causes quite the irritation in my that “apart” and “a part” are separated by a space and have complete opposite meanings Also, if “a part” is brought together to “apart” wouldn’t “apart“ more intuitively be understood as joined? And the opposite for “apart” being split to “a part”. #mybrain

The creator of this microwave was an agent of chaos (Who puts the stop button on the tight?!)

I’m sure this is a AI realization many others have had The greatest deception I feel I’m seeing is the promise of turning AI users into masters of many crafts @alexhillman.com’s “Tiny MBA” (which you should buy this for a gift this week) recommended Cal Newports “So Good They Can‘t Ignore You”

Growing more and more convinced by the day that there is an incredible amount of people making good money by lying to others about their “methods” and “scripts” and “playbooks” Give people a false promise they will pay you and then those same people are used as “evidence” that it works.

Turning off cursor tab = zen mode

Three community ideas for bluesky people to help me process: A course creators community. Just somewhere to share ups downs, and whats working and not. Thinking developer specific A community to simply inspire and bring to light what’s possible with code. I get so bored with so much

My greatest hope for Christian authors and orgs that review books is that they would know the author is under no obligation to address the full extent of biblical doctrines when saying any one thing As a reader, my hope is to hear what is being said and not immediately say “but what about?!”

I feel bluesky may be the only place that has developers who care about this answer Are there any tools out there that radically simplify building PWA's? Wasn't sure if @bell.bz would know of some. I really don't want to go down the expo route and use react native for a mobile app, would love pwa

The introduction in “On Writing Well” is one of the most concise encapsulations of so many professions and societal trends. Make a medium easier, good gets better, bad gets worse.

Oh the internal agony of this cycle: think I must have a good idea to make money -> no one wants the idea -> think I need a better idea -> get fed up and just need to make money -> slightly begin the process -> start trying to find the best idea again -> realize no one wants it -> and on and on

I’ve tried ADHD meds before and it is now becoming a reality for me that they all have probably actually worked but because I forget to drink water and had unbearable headaches I thought they were ineffective 🤦‍♂️

Can we get people responding to bring awareness of work people are doing around cancer? Experimental places Tech advances Anything else like this 1) trying to find places for friends 2) just feels a big lack of awareness of what is being done around it (maybe just me)

Do you ever think about how far you would be along if you just follow directions and paths laid out for you by those who know what they are talking about? I do and it haunts me and we are past halloween

@pvh.ca and @martin.kleppmann.com found out about this today from fly.io! fly.io/blog/corrosi...

For any Yugioh fans Back in the day I had a game, I still do actually, called Dark Duel Stories. With technology where it is I would like to build a web based version of that game. There are so many things I like about it. I actually have a decent initial proof of concept. I need guidance with

The coffee paradox for aging adults As a 20 year old we crushed energy drinks, coffee, etc. People even tried filtering coffee with red bull. You could still be tired & in bed by 1030 As an aging adult with kids & sleep deprived, having coffee after 11 keeps me up til 3am 🤷‍♂️

Alright Case Study 1 is up. A lot of conversations I have with people are in a southern evangelical context and so spirituality, the bible, God, sin and so on will come up in many of these case studies. This one is on anxiety and helping a friend in it benapatton.com/articles/cas...

What are the best writing tools that my friends who love to write have found? I find nothing satisfies and yet I don't know what I am looking for. Feels like it would have options for: - parallel documents - document storage and references - search - canvas for sketching / notes - timer for focus

Anyone with kids know how to tap into their intrinsic motivation at 330am so going back to sleep isn’t met with gnashing of teeth extrinsic motivation doesnt work

Just using the @11ty.dev base blog starter Wrote my first (overview) type article of what I am focusing on with relation to side work moving forward benapatton.com/articles/som...

Just a public thank you to Netlify and Cloudflare for drag and drop deployments. Makes me want to dance. But I'll keep it to myself

Its that time of year again Rebuilding a blog but this time starting with a base 11ty blog and then will be gradually adding to it while going through @bell.bz complete CSS course.

If you predict AI will write all software in 6 months every 6 months eventually you will probably be right and then ego will drive you to say "I told you so." But what a silly thing to hold to rather than helping people advance in everyway

So much of my web dev life could have been sped up if I serious design, like @bell.bz and friends teach, would have been taught from the outset. Now it feels like living and spinning in an never ending cycle crap design without personal skills (due to crazy brain) to make good designs

I feel my webby friends would like this. Might be a fun excuse to dabble in random things and show some fun possibilities with your skills! Thinking of the recent convo with @amyhoy.bsky.social on Javascript.

Thread on progress after reading half of The Progress Principle Progress is, in my mind, becoming one of the clearest metrics of health in individuals. Progress as referenced in the book is in line with work people do. But it is much much bigger than that. And I think we see it by is inverse

Before I teach a single thing, I always start with the same 3 questions. They set the tone, build trust, and often save the whole course. Here’s the video: youtu.be/Xsuf0KIEu5g What’s the first question you ask when leading a group?

Excited to share that I am starting a new job as a Content Engineer with @inngest.com! Looking forward to helping developers build with clarity and reliability with Inngest

For writers and authors: Taking Kathy Sierra's "what if the previous page vanishes" idea for how to maintain forward flow What if that idea was combined with Ted Nelson's parallel pages idea? I am just genuinely curious where this thought process could go.

Ok, hear me out, A Lord of the Rings remake, but with these two taking the One Ring to Mordor

This Kathy Sierra video is truly on repeat in my brain and has absolutely captivated me One of the first thoughts was why it is so hard for React devs to use web standards Thinking of my convos with @brianleroux.bsky.social and @bell.bz Highly recommend listening youtu.be/i0oo2KxcW3s?...

Well I discovered @kathysierra.bsky.social’s YouTube. And have now discovered more videos I have not seen This is for you @alexhillman.com maybe you have seen this youtu.be/i0oo2KxcW3s?...

One of the least quoted lines probably from Star Wars is from the Viceroy of the Trade Federation about reporting the Jedi to Lord Sidious “No need to report that until we have something to report” This is my new approach to social media I will log out until I have something to report

Very interesting and worthy paying attention too

Hear me out: Cut throat app experiences While the world optimizes for battery life, give your app a random battery life either on a session or the token itself If they don't save progress it gets wiped back to the last check point

Found that @kathysierra.bsky.social was on a podcast recently and it is a fascinating discussion www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ca86...

Hey @aaronfrancis.com I think @bell.bz would be a great person to discuss a site redesign for your database school. There are so many people that could do it but I think the work they are doing is fantastic.

If people are going to vibe code, and it will be as common as googling for a really long time How can we build better vibe coding tools to give them sensible and good defaults? @bell.bz I am thinking about a tool that generates UI based off your patterns around UI rather than v0/lovable stuff

@jason.energy I have another connection for you for a fun Learn With Jason episode and a nice follow up to your CodeTV episode on graphql @statisticsftw.bsky.social is building out Isograph and I think it could bring much needed sanity of mind to using graphql.

@jason.energy I think it would be cool for you to have @redwoodjs.com friends on to educate about their framework, web standards, and how they are using their framework to educate beginners in various places. Lots of good things there and I think you and Peter would vibe well

Hey friends! I did a TEDx talk and it's now up on the TED Conferences YouTube. It's possibly the best and most important talk I've ever done. I would ask that you watch it, and please SHARE it broadly and widely. Thank you! youtu.be/dVG8W-0p6vg #AI #Tech #TED

This is a big deal to me. Along with this comes a lot of "byproduct" investing in the unjs ecosystem. Nitro also is known for its vast amount of deployment targets so this could very well be the beginning of Vercel opening Nextjs to being deployed to a variety of places

One of life's greatest difficulties is speaking about something incredibly meaningful and helpful to you, knowing others could benefit, but getting blank stares in return or it being brushed off as nbd You can't expect people to have your enthusiasm but man finding the "you too" people is hard

Seems odd @brianleroux.bsky.social
