@lurkmoophy.bsky.social talk about messing with the data. I’m putting C whatever
I think you can probably guess. I think I handled the website updates well.
Been a while. All ages matinee show in Bristol with Steve from Tellison and Kathryn from Fresh on Sunday 22nd Feb.
Today I walked up the iconic hill from the 70s Hovis advert. Lovely little place.
Little bit more progress every day while still keeping it low budget
This is something I experience at least every week. Any fixed button or modal bigger than the viewport - button cannot be tapped in Safari as the first tap changes the browser chrome. Only way I could book this Drs appointment was to use VoiceOver and swipe to the button.
I’m moving to a 95% remote job next week and trying to set up a space for both work and music production. Anyone got any advice for dealing with multiple macs with the same monitors / keyboards as well as maybe audio too?
Got a break between the days downpour for an autumnal cruise in the ‘62.
@guysegal.com delivered a wonderfully poignant talk on recognising the root cause of team frustration, safety and ultimately recognising being in a design system team can feel like an emotional merry go round
It’s not been the best year and it was my birthday last week so… I now own a 1962 bug in beryl green with the best patina ever. Spent most of its life in Washington state and has bags of history.
I am currently in this state. Doing some small fixes to the channels. I have certainly thought about driving the pan if I can hook up the wiring and fuel. Column is still in the shell, we trying to avoid removing it.
For those of you that are unaware of my previous career as an unpopular musician. I put some stuff I found in the loft on my Bandcamp davehouse.bandcamp.com/merch Including this 2004 esque shirt.
Found this artefact in my flower bed. What do you reckon it was used for? Apart from hand of the king…
Been working on my personal website in the middle of the night for a few days (when else?!). Very much WIP but coming together - Currently struggling with walking the line between CV / non-existent portfolio and a place to keep blogs (still medium links for now but determined to self publish)
You can actually test it on mobile too (here is Orion browser that can run local extensions)
Made a little browser extension to translate numbers into words when you toggle a button. I've been thinking about it since listening to @accessiblenumbers.bsky.social Accessible Numbers podcast. I haven't quite cracked big numbers yet but just wondering if this would actually be useful?
Also for the 2 of you that are interested. I have pretty much completed my beetle chassis. And for those that were at my Converge talk… look a headless component.
In a break from the world going down the pan, I did win this absolutely giant Axolotl toy at the bowling alley. Best day of my daughter’s life I think.
Fintech beginning with M has a few own goals though, increase contrast makes some elements brighter but actually reduces text contrast on things like buttons, which I seem to remember fail contrast anyway.
I am reframing iOS VoiceOver seemingly doing everything differently as just punk. #A11y
Listened to @hyperfixedpod.bsky.social and immediately purchased this super legit tape measure.
