#TailwindCSS with #React just got better behind my back. #Flowbite is a component library with all of the basic functionality of react-bootstrap for free (tiered pricing). Happy prototyping, dev friends!

I'm putting together a little interactive web dev with CSS and browser APIs course. What do you want to see in it?
So create-react-app is no longer maintained. React-router has changed all its methods. And RTK is preferred over Redux. They say things come in threes. Am I missing anything?
Still, this would have been impossible working in London.
But it’s surprising how little time is left to get down the beach after coding.
We’re lucky, living a ten minute drive from a 5 mile long Atlantic beach.
And for my friends in Canada & the US, it’s not *that* Letterkenny. It’s the real one, County Donegal! ✅☘️

Now whenever I enter a restroom I brace myself for the possibility of finding classified documents.

In the city. Never fails to amaze me just how many wifi networks coursing through my molecules.

Well, it's official... Microsoft Bing just delisted my entire website for no discernible reason.
Is it because oddnugget.com is a search engine, I wonder? No, no, it couldn't be that.
Maybe their AI chat search abomination couldn't handle my site's existence...

No woman can compile the same software twice - the software hasn't changed, compiler hasn't changed, but some dependency is no longer cached, or available, or some other philosophical garbage.
And she, is no longer the same.

The worst thing to have ever happened to Mastodon is the concept of “joining Mastodon”. Nobody ever “joined Mastodon”. They used Mastodon to join the Fediverse.
As it happens, many people who “joined Mastodon” don’t even realize they joined the Fediverse. BBC clearly doesn’t realize this is what occurs.
But there’s a silver lining here. Perhaps if the people who don’t like Mastodon realize there’s other options, they’ll soon understand why the Fediverse is so exciting.
No server or software has to be all things to all people. If something isn’t to their taste, they can simply try another one.
