@devurandom@cybre.space I agree 100%, and something like can achieve that :) The thing is of course how many will adopt it.

I have been trying to improve my writing, and one of the things I noticed is that I write "I think..." a lot. Most of the time it's not necessary to say it, and the message stays the same.

This is one of the funniest christmas traditions in Catalonia: Els Caganers! It's Christmas time and you start seeing figurines of anyone you can imagine taking a dump :D

I didn't think I'd ever do this, but this month I started living with a cat at home and I talk to her while no one's around! Never say never 😹

Damn I forgot that Firebug existed and what coding on the web was like those days. Looking back, the web ecosystem has improved a lot (albeit maybe adding more complexity than I'd like). Except CSS, it still sucks.

Seems like server implementations don't support SPARQL yet, keep that in mind when working with applications storing a lot of data. The current recommendation is to use Globbing instead.

What's the one thing that they made a sequel to that didn't need a sequel? 

@aral @indie I guess it could be clearly stated as a list of "organizations/projects who declare themdelves as practitioners of ethical design" without any validation? I know it's not proof or anything, but the act of wanting to appear on that list would be a good starting point :).

Hey @indie @aral is there any way to find a list or directory of companies who adhere to ?

@dajbelshaw When you were talking about alternatives to store your photos, did you consider using NextCloud? I haven't used it *yet* but everything I've seen about them is cool, specially that you can choose where to store the files.

I've checked the permanent.org website and it's a bit sketchy that you can't read anything (not even the "about" page) without entering the beta... But well, let's see how it turns out.

Since I started looking into , I realized it's built on top of many existing technologies I didn't know much about. Check out some basic concepts I'd recommend getting familiar with before learning it: noeldemartin.com/tasks/impleme

I enjoyed this talk by Rizqi Djamaluddin, where he goes into why data privacy is important and how we should be handling it: "Fundamentally Flawed: Privacy, People and the Age of Data" youtube.com/watch?v=Ucz0UFaYuv

Interesting, an open letter from DHH (Basecamp CTO) to Jeff Bezos (he was an early imvestor) m.signalvnoise.com/dear-jeff-a

Yesterday I published a new blog post talking about Open Productivity, a new approach I'll be taking on how I communicate my work: noeldemartin.com/blog/open-pro

you can use `array_filter` in PHP without providing the filter callback, and it will get rid of all the falsy values. Sweet! I've written logic for this myself many times, so I'll definitely start using this instead.

@Gargron what will you use to populate the preview? tw:*, og:* meta tags? Mastodon specific tags? Something else?

@dajbelshaw Are you familiar with the Web Accessibility Initiative from W3C? I haven't used it myself but I know the guys at Basecamp use it, so I've been meaning to check it out :D
