@chris That's cool - they are BIG planes. Do you know what they are?

@chris Yeah. A clean break on several fronts.

Hope you get your words back!

Perhaps it’s not a bad thing though. Perhaps you’ve been busy doing active things?

@chris I’ve had this too. But I’ve had big home projects on the go that have sucked my time. That’s pretty much wrapped up now and I’m pining to get creating again.

The Verge article on the best printer in 2024 is just completely brilliant in so many ways.

I’m starting to mentor someone to get into web development.

I’m reminded of some really excellent resources that you may not know about:

- https://devdocs.io - multiple software développement references in one place. Also a PWA so works offline!
- Julia Evan’s excellent zines. The HTTP guide is a superb staring point for understanding how the web works under the hood. The debugging guide is excellent. https://wizardzines.com

A simple, web/cloud based, private key/value store. Like a fediverse but for personal data.

Is this possible? Does it exist?

I've mentioned this a few times here and it's always too hard to explain in short posts.

So here’s a long one.

@chris My goodness. That's incredible! What if you can't pay? I just can't comprehend it.
