@jezza Ah yes, very nice

I'm at the point where I just want whatever is simplest and while I have the skills to build/design my own, I don't care enough aside from sharing my writing at this point

My favourite appearances on Europe's #1 rock show

@jezza I store/compose the content itself in Obsidian (markdown) and use a plugin there to spit out html files. It's not perfect and I would like to figure out a better process to do the actual publishing stage but it's working well enough for now

The economics of unpayed internships/practicums is wild

@jezza Haha you're right, it really is all about the bottle (and uncorking it, I suppose)

Happy shrove/mardis/vetten Tuesday

I get why sparkling apple juice is treated as a non-booze fancy drink to feel like champagne. But with all the fancy non-alcoholic drinks that are now more accessible and popular than ever, can that stop?

@mike I don't mind Apple's ethos when they pick what they think is best for everyone and you have no other option.

But this is an example of them changing what they pick and that's rather annoying.

@jezza Aha yes!

@jezza And that is one of the best websites ever built right there!

I always find it interesting in a good way when I look at the websites for small marketing agencies—the kind I which I did subcontracted work for when I was freelancing full time—and see how their websites are old, out of date, or just generally unexciting.

it's like business is good enough that they don't care about their appearance, potentially to a detrimental-to-bringing-in-revenue level. Goals, I guess? But it's weird.

I find it funny when businesses that add up the total experience in their office and then brag that they have x number of years of experience in the field.

Bragging that you have "100 years of combined experience" without saying how many people are on the team could mean you have 100 newbies or 3 seasoned experts. It's not a qualification of anything!

Assuming car traffic is flowing at an average speed 15% greater than the speed limit, and knowing that driving slower than the flow can be dangerous, which is more ethically wrong/morally grave:

Breaking the limit and going with the flow, or going the limit?
