Yesterday, I criticized the term "html developer." Today, I am most certainly an HTML developer. Fixing a Word Perfect HTML export, implementing semantic elements, re-engineering the file/resource structure, un-nesting triple-nested [span] and removing redundant inline styles.

Although https://github.com/tristanstraub/garden-mower is inspired by use with Tailwind, I just used it to easily, rapidly import an arbitrary CSS file into my #Clojure #Clojurescript Garden files. Beautiful!

Also, it was my first project in which I've used deps.edn instead of Leiningen. Cider started it notably quickly. Success on two fronts!

Heres something to think about. I don't have much patience for artificial scarcity , but believe that immutability is usually a good thing

I am gradually making a registry of great and horrible web apps. Slack makes a case in point: I use their desktop webapp in browser practically all day every day. On mobile, though, they literally don't even try to make a web app mobile-friendly: it actively redirects you to the app store at every attempt. Unacceptable, @slack!

Disney has a long history of being an enemy of content freedom, most notably how they twisted and manipulated copyright law to something distincly NOT in public interest, for their own pocketbooks. Disney+ is the climax of that same ignoble mission so far. https://www.defectivebydesign.org/blog/idad-2021-counteracting-disneys-attack-culture

@liberation@fosstodon.org I've played the Tetris, too. I guess I wouldn't say I've "enjoyed" them, since I leave emacs for my real gaming, but it's a good gee-whiz factor

I'm always interested in web frameworks, especially #lisp ones. Here is Artanis, GNU Guile. Reagent it isn't, but it's a start https://web-artanis.com/about.html

Our primary system admin is out for holiday, so little ol' me is attempting to get my Apache to reverse proxy to a docker container and keep its SSL setup, and now I am reading about SSL Stapling #TIL #IsThisFullStackP

@icedquinn ""torment nexus". I'll remember that label.

Time I once again asked the question, "this year what are the differences between #MySQL and #Postgres?" Extensibility is a huge one (so you can program addons to Postgres but not MySQL). and also this thing called Materialized Views. https://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.3/rules-materializedviews.html

It looks like you can take snapshots of the data at a certain point. A full-blown XTDB it's not, but that could be useful.

To whom it may concern: when your workflow is `pwgen -cny 25 -> docker-compose.yml -> settings.py` you will get passwords that cause the process to fail spectacularly. Quotes, forward slashes, all the things it likes to choke on.

I had no idea . That is awesome

Everyone knows about M-x tetris in #emacs -- but have you ever heard of M-x dunnet? It's an old-school text adventure game.
