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.

@bruised_blood That sounds more like being mugged than trick-or-treat-ing.

@RGA With wiffs of the classic “Smelvetica” from @twholman before, all too soon, it sadly left us.

I’ve been a fan of @MinaMarkham for a while, but the sentiments she is expressing about a responsible and robust approach to designing and building for the web are slap bang in my wheelhouse!

What a delightful voice of reason. #aeadev

@farai_uxguy is deftly making brilliant points about the value of diverse teams. Spot on!

@mrwiblog @TrentWalton Heh. I think I've seem more even that that. But yes, the same result.

"The website you make us MUST be fast"
(Hooray!!!)

"And before we launch you must add all these tracking codes and blocking 3rd party scripts"

This is a reason I got so excited when @Netlify launched split testing that uses fully featured branch builds so everything is “as production” and no client side scripts are required.

“You just have to pick one!”
— says @TrentWalton on clients adding *multiple* third party scripts for analytics and a/b testing.

This is the voice I’ve always wanted in the room when brand clients dismissed this as a concern from an agency “tech person”.

Data helps.

@hardfire @TrentWalton Absolutely! I've seen this open the floodgates to all sorts of scary code being added to sites by those unfamiliar with the implications. Often by clients who also hold you responsible for delivering good perf while simultaneously scuppering you.

Being equally inspired & terrified by @TrentWalton's outstanding talk at #aeaden where he describes the impact and prevalence of 3rd party scripts in our sites.

There is such a huge impact on performance and effectiveness when we don't understand and control the JS on our sites.

@nystudio107 @devmodefm @swyx @Netlify @zachleat @eleven_ty @ChrisFerdinandi @GoHugoIO That's funny. I often use that very example for the opposite point. I would still talk about my site being LAMP stack even when it didn't need a DB, and just used PHP and Apache on a Linux machine.
