So someone compromised Google pretty effectively. gist.github.com/zachlatta/f8...

Pivoted to a simple incremental game to get practice in before making the game I actually want to make. This might become quite a fun dopamine mill. :D

Apparently Google lets advertisers decide the displayed link irrespective of the actual link. > Google is serving sponsored links to a Homebrew site clone that has a cURL command to malware. agora.echelon.pl/notice/AqFeA...

#gamedev trick: If you need to calculate the sum of a bunch of random events, it can be approximated very cheaply using the normal approximation of binomial distributions. Quick writeup since bsky posts can only be so long: seequ.dev/posts/005-bi...

Rabbit hole: 1. Start making a game. 2. Decide to script it with lua for easy moddability. 3. Realize I now need to describe the UI in lua too, 4. Realize no existing GUI library does quite what I want and plays well with lua. 5. Make my own.

What is Apple up to?

The actual next generation of UI development? pangui.io

Never forget YAML is a superset of JSON. if you dislike YAML, you can just dump JSON into the YAML file and call it a day.

Another addition to the "domain registrars you should never use" list.

I have spent the last five hours trying to get Plex to *not* show subtitles and I'm about to break something.

Periodic reminder that conditionals in Bash aren't some language syntax, it's an actual binary on your system.

Here are over 150GB of free sound effects, royalty-free and commercially usable on your #gamedev projects sonniss.com/gameaudiogdc

There's some serious irony in the CSS Working Group having such a hideous blog. www.w3.org/blog/CSS/

Short writeup on using the date extension in sieve rules. It was surprisingly difficult to find good information on this. seequ.dev/posts/004-of...

So is this the death of Firefox if the deal is they fund it to get antitrust off their backs, and it's not working?

I just want to say Fastmail is fantastic. www.fastmail.com

Apparently triggering links on mousedown is very controversial. I use it on my own sites since I find the user experience superior. Saving a good 100ms is significant. And holding a mouse in place during a click is harder than you might think if you're disabled. What are your thoughts on it?

TIL about the scrollbar-gutter property. It lets you reserve space for a scrollbar, even if one isn't visible now. Prevents content from jumping if the user doesn't use an overlay scrollbar. #webdev developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/W...

Fun little experiment. Grabbing my Bluesky feed every 5 minutes to update the static feed in my blog. seequ.dev/bluesky/

TIL quotes around HTML attributes are optional. Behold!

Just found this option. Settings > Thread Preferences. It's so good.

I've been having fun with Zola. The introduction takes a few minutes to complete and you're off to the races. Builds take a few milliseconds and you get live reload out of the box. Highly recommend it if you want to make a blog or any other static content. www.getzola.org

It's incredible how much time fiddling with css ends up taking every time. Might be a skill issue.

Accessibility issues impact everyone, not just those with disabilities.

@jaz.bsky.social Is there a writeup somewhere that goes to the details of how the ATProto federation works?

I got a domain for Bluesky and figured I might as well finally start a blog using it. seequ.dev/first/

I hate YAML. Took me a while to figure out why the pipeline is saying "docker build requires exactly 1 argument."

You can keep track of which element has focus on the page using Chrome DevTools. No need to manually log `document.activeElement` all the time.
