I am very happy to announce that Rabbit Waves is out!

The idea for this project came after @neauoire & I were discussing the disappearance of certain traditional seasteading skills and maritime communication knowledge. We believe these skills are valuable when electronics misbehave, but they're also just generally fun to learn and to use.

All of the art is drawn by hand :>! We will add more content as we go!

Attachments:

• a sketchbook page featuring some hand drawn art of the phonetic alphabet, as well as how to communicate with flag semaphore. (remote)
• a sketchbook page showing illustrated sea birds having a conversation using the phonetic alphabet. (remote)

Increasingly, my strongest frontend opinion is that styles and markup should never, ever come from more than one source.

Send and receive data only.

Turn it into markup after you get it. Style it if you want to. But never, ever let markup or styling in the front door.

Death to Bullshit.

This might be the first techno-manifesto I ever read. Looking back, Death to Bullshit feels ahead of its time. It's more relevant today than ever.

We're still working on making shipping to other countries possible, and believe me, I will post about it once it is. I want everyone to be able to get one... If you're in the EU and you've missed it you can get yours here: https://shop.joinmastodon.org/products/mastodon-plushie

Gargron ("Eugen Rochko") wrote:

Half of the EU stock for the Mastodon plushie has been claimed over the last two days. What's perhaps even more exciting is that I think some of the first orders should be arriving at people's homes today (depending on locality), and I'm really looking forward to seeing The Creature in the #Plushtodon hashtag.

This made me laugh. The English language is absurd. People capable of learning it as a second language are highly intelligent.

23 years ago the first release of Plone 0.1 saw the daylight, and about 23 hours ago the latest release to the Plone project was made. Just how amazing it is, that this open source CMS has been around for so long, and is still being developed further by this active and lovely community?

Happy birthday Plone! 😍 🎂

Fascinating post. Cloudflare Workers are The Right Design (TM) for most "serverless" stuff, and the abstraction of their k/v store is super useful, but I didn't know much about the Durable Objects abstraction:

It can never be understated how far ahead of his time, or perhaps exactly -on- the technological frontier of his time, Jimi Hendrix was

• A post on LinkedIn from Notion that reads: AI is reshaping our digital landscape much like plastic transformed our physical world. With fascinating parallels between AI and plastic—such as versatility, efficiency, and potential for innovation. And just as plastic enabled entirely new products, AI is opening doors to tools and workflows we couldn't have imagined before.🚪 How can we harness AI's qualities to create truly transformative tools, that complement rather than replace our human intelligence?

The wait is over. HTML for People is OUT NOW!

I feel strongly that anyone should be able to make a website with HTML if they want. This web book will teach you how to do just that. It doesn’t require any previous experience making websites or coding. I will cover everything you need to know to get started in an approachable and friendly way.

And it’s free for all. 🚀
