@kottkrig Inte meningen att knuffa ner dig i ett kaninhål, å andra sidan kom du ju upp igen och bloggade om dina äventyr så… sorry not sorry? 😊

@DaveyCraney Well, now I know what I’ll be doing in October. 😋 Better start saving up–my immune system has no protection against anything Game Boy.

@jsonbecker I’m collecting personal websites that highlight their authors’ creative output in my ta-da channel on Are.na. You might find something you like there. I also curate another channel featuring all the websites mentioned in my podcast about “the rest of the internet.” While it’s not exclusively about personal websites, most of them fall into that category. Happy foraging!

@aeryn @pratik @stefp Aww, thanks, y’all. 🥰 We should all be very happy I didn’t attempt to paint the scene and just reached for the camera instead. Trust me, that painting wouldn’t have turned out well. 😅

@iChris In Sweden, there’s really no choice. The annual financial report for private companies is public information, as is people’s taxable income. So I rarely get the question—I guess curious folks just look it up themselves. 😅

@JohnPhilpin The cool thing about the digital realm is that almost anything is possible. While some things can be impractical or costly, they’re rarely impossible. 😊 In this case, @manton already provides a programming interface for adding photos to a collection, so it should be relatively straightforward to build a plug-in that allows adding a photo to a collection directly from a blog post.

@cygnoir I took a closer look at the lovely theme you’re using, created by @jimmitchell, and noticed it’s missing a small piece needed for full support of Micro.blog plug-ins. I’ve created an issue over on GitHub, and hopefully, Jim agrees it’s a good idea and implements it. 😊

Once that’s done, your favicon should just start working.

@cygnoir Thanks so much for checking out my plug-in! 🥰 I’m sorry it hasn’t started working yet. Troubleshooting from the outside can be tricky, but it looks like the plug-in might not be installed correctly. For instance, there should be an image at this URL: www.cygnoir.net/images/favicon.svg, but it’s missing.

Do you have more than one blog hosted on Micro.blog? I’ve made the mistake myself a couple of times—installing plug-ins on the wrong blog. 😅

If you’re sure it’s installed on the correct blog, head over to micro.blog/account/logs, click the Rebuild button, and keep an eye on the logs. Hopefully, they’ll point us in the right direction if something’s wrong.

@JohnPhilpin 🤔 Is that reflected in the raw data? From the article, it seems like salary differences diminish somewhat around 11–15 years of experience. However, that doesn’t mean people start preferring spaces less as they gain experience, right?

And just for the record, for anyone following this thread: I don’t have a preference when it comes to spaces vs. tabs. 😊 I just use whatever the project I’m contributing to uses. When I start new projects on my own and actively think about indentation (which I rarely do), I choose whatever is most common in the language I’m coding in. (For example, spaces for Ruby and JavaScript, and tabs for C and Go.)

@toddgrotenhuis You won’t, I’m not there. Yet. 😊 How do you like it so far? I guess it might be hard to get a feel for the place unless you already know people there.

@dfj Yeah, me too! I’ve lost count of how many times I’ve started Advent of Code and not finished. This is more my jam—and it’s not too late to join. 😉

@ndreas Mys med en dag fylld med så mycket boklyssning. 🥰 Om du uppskattar det här med hur sf “bäst fångar och speglar vår tids utmaningar och erfarenheter” tror jag Hum kan falla dig i smaken också. Jag skrev några ord om den i mitt och Sannas nyhetsbrev som gick ut i september.

Sen finns det många tankeväckande noveller där ute.​ Ted Chiangs What’s expected of us och Andy Weirs The Egg är två av mina favoriter.

@jonah I do follow a few Substack writers through my feed reader, but I haven’t really used the service for discovery. I’ll have to give it a try.

I agree with Maggie that this is an issue for a lot of people, but personally, I’ve worked around it by following a variety of interesting people, newsletters, and linkblogs. I also keep an eye on sites like are.na and lobste.rs, where stuff I care about tends to bubble up. It does take more effort compared to just having everything handed to you by an engagement algorithm, though.

@odd AirDrop creates ad-hoc peer-to-peer Wi-Fi connections between devices, so you’re not dependent on a router. Bluetooth is used to set up the temporary Wi-Fi connection, but it’s not possible to actually AirDrop over Bluetooth, to my knowledge.

@miguelmanalo I used Kindle devices for more than a decade, but switched to Kobo a while back and am happy with it. Their Libra and Sage models have physical page-turn buttons.

@odd No, actually, I took that photo more or less in your backyard 😊 – Fulufjället, close to the Norwegian border where it turns into Fulufjellet. About the cliff… Yeah, I think so too, but I didn’t dare leave the trail, just to be safe.

@gustav Det är förvånansvärt ofta jag hittar nytt “ute på stan”. Alltså att jag sitter på ett café eller går förbi en radio, hör något jag gillar och shazamar. Precis som @kottkrig följer jag också folk som då och då tipsar om något som faller mig i smaken. Jag följer också klubbar och festivaler jag tycker om. DNA Lounge har sina blandband som jwz kurerar, till exempel. Jag brukar också kolla upp skivmärken/-bolag (som Data Airlines och PC Music) för artister jag tycker om – stor chans att det finns liknande musik i resten av deras stall.

Sen finns det ju en​ massa roliga webbplatser där ute… Bop Spotter har satt upp en mikrofon i Mission (San Francisco) som shazamar dygnet runt, Music-Map rekommenderar artister baserat på de du redan gillar och Album Whale låter folk dela album-listor med varandra.

@maria Men, va sjukt, jag satt precis och svor över den där kampanjen. Tack. Nu vet jag åtminstone att det inte bara är hos mig det blir sådär.

@odd This is cool! Thanks for sharing. Maybe it’s just me, but I’m noticing a subtle trend in my parts of the www, bringing handwriting and analog elements into design. For example, handwritten.blog and the redesign of dynamicland.org.

@Miraz Oh, no. 🤢 I haven’t seen anything like that here yet, but I’m sure it will happen any day now.
