lol, replied to the wrong post. Should have been the "static as a server" post.
comment in response to post
ā€œStatic is a server that runs ahead of time" is a great, clarifying line. You should put this at the start of the article. Or even the as the title.

I didn’t. I’m happy with lobste.rs for now.

Even our website are reboots.

The challenge is there is truth to this – bureaucracies have become complex and opaque. They are after all run by fallible humans. However, Instead of dismantling everything, we can look to examples like Taiwan where technology has been used to improve democracy through transparency and openness.
comment in response to post
This includes how bureaucratic systems – critical for the survival of democracy – become complex, opaque and distrusted by the public. This in turn makes them a target for Populists, who advocate to 'fix' the problem by dismantling the very mechanisms that keep democracy functioning.

We were camping at the foreshore. Same view though šŸ™‚ Were staying in that amazing modernist place? I didn't realise it was bookable. Next time!

@raf.eco what rundown was this?

Hang in there! It gets easier. I found the distraction of work helps.

@pjvogt.bsky.social's episode on Zuckerberg–and @caseynewton.bsky.social's comments–made me reconsider my "bloodless lizard creature" depiction above. No, I still don't like him, but I understand him better now and perhaps even pity the situation he's created for himself. bsky.app/profile/pjvo...

Nice! Have you built anything in Fresh with a DB layer or auth? I see they have some examples on the blog. Just curious about your experience if so.
comment in response to post
Yeah, it looks great. I've seen a few sites built with it now. Are you using any additional libraries for front end? Or all just Fresh/Preact?
comment in response to post
Getting the same results here, even in AU

How are you finding Fresh?

Yes, read the whole series last year. LOVED it.

We're a few episode behind. Looking forward to catching up this weekend. Have you read the books?

I'm trying to use the concept of a sketch to get around this blocker. I'll do many sketches for a design and all of them can be bad. And that's ok :)

Here's the post I wrote in 2020 and the motivation behind writing more. I didn't quite manage to achieve the goal of sharing more writing publicly, but let's see what 2025 brings šŸ™‚ aaronmoodie.com/blog/getting...

Donating to the Wikimedia Foundation is great. Becoming a volunteer editor is even better. youtu.be/bRRHR1NEOqE

ā€œMeta’s version of these Starter Packs will also suggest profiles that are ā€œhandpicked by people on Threads,ā€ā€ - laying foundations for more advertising no doubt.

Bip stands out as one of my all-time favourite projects because it presented such a unique design challenge—unlike anything I've encountered before or since. vimeo.com/117682188
