The archive of what I posted on Twitter, which I now self host due to a lack of trust in Twitter and some other reasons.

I'll soon begin refelcting all my Mastodon posts here too. I'm happier self-hosting or maintaining an archive of my content on URLs that I can own.

There are tools to help you do this too. Such as this one from the makers of Eleventy.

@DavidBenPark Heh. You joke, but I’ve had briefs before which were essentially “build us a <technology du jour> application.”

At which point, asking what problem they were trying to solve was the best possible contribution to the project. Delicate conversations sometimes. But vital.

One of the most valuable lessons 2 decades of software engineering has taught me is:

Unless you've asked,
"what will it need to do?"

...there's little point asking,
"what shall we build it with?"

@jlengstorf @Netlify @cassidoo @sarah_edo @Tzmanics This is the slack I wake up to every day.

Why is nobody talking about the REAL victims of distributed working?

@Benghamine @Netlify Ha!

I forget how first learned of @Netlify. I was using it as @BitBalloon first which started to feature in my talks about static sites more and more heavily from around 2014

Lol... "Other funky shizzle"
