make a landscape using only primitive shapes | #genuary6 one of my favorite prompts of #genuary involved exploring how simple points and lines can be used to create a constantly changing landscape #creativecoding #p5js

Wasn’t sure this was gonna happen, but it’s still 2024 here for ~8 hours 😅 My annual portfolio refresh 💃 lynnandtonic.com

Hello, Genuary! 💕💜 Vertical or horizontal lines only. #genuary1 #genuary2025 #genuary

As the year wraps up and I plan my travels for next year, I’m excited to announce that I’m attending #RenderATL2025! This will be my third time at @renderatl.com, and it’s one of my favorite tech conferences —especially for how it brings the tech community together.

it's kinda sad that digital work is so hidden like there's no messy study room or bookshelves full of works you've read or letters from people and gizmos and widgets you've built or stacks of drawings and diagrams it's all just, hidden in folders, already lost in space, and eventually lost to time

Happy Saturday #BlackSky! 👋🏾 #AddToBlackSky

Fun fact: If someone quotes a post of yours in a way that is unwelcome (as is commonplace on Twitter/X) there is a tool to combat the unwanted attention. Simply click the three dot menu on the quote post & click "Detach quote". This removes your post from their quote post. Useful to know, do share!

If you're a Spotify user who is finding the microgenre & geodata of your annual "Wrapped" to be less substantial than usual, there's a reason why. A year ago, Spotify laid off most of its employees who worked on genre classification, including folks like data alchemist @glennmcdonald.bsky.social.

I recently acquired MyFirstNameMyLastName dot com for ~$10(!) and now I have four different domains that point to the same site 🫣.

I hope the Spotify Wrapped algorithm plays well with my excessive looping of Sam Smith…

We want Bluesky to be a great home for journalists, publishers, and creators. Unlike other platforms, we don't de-promote your links. Post all the links you want — Bluesky is a lobby to the open web.

For people who want to learn how to build their own website, you can easily learn the basics of HTML with this very cool and informative site: htmlforpeople.com #HTML #IndieWeb

I already have a creative yet professional site but I’m really excited thinking about all the possibilities of creating a more chaotic and weird website.

taking posting online as implicit consent for having your data used in any which way is shitty in all the normal ways that other smart people are pointing out but it also engenders a relationship with technology and products that is inherently hostile and end of day i don't think tech ppl want that

I consider (my 🦋 handle) monica.dev my own personal playground for experimenting. It’s centered around my interests in web development, creative coding and books.
