Mandaris

I’ve been meaning to do more daily notes for myself. There is a couple examples out there, but I find myself tripping up on making it a habit.

I’m at a high school track meet. The line for the boys bathroom is out the door. Two stalls, 3 urinals. The kids aren’t using the urinals.

Ah, to be young and insecure.

I wondered why the tabindex="0" was placed when adding code to my website when I came across this issue on github

I was going to work on my “About” page for my site. I get that same feeling that I get when I’m working on a résumé. This should be more fun and a lot easier, but I’m finding it difficult to come up with the words to write.

I must be getting sick 🤒. My Apple Watch says that my exercise ring is closed by me just trying to breathe while going up the stairs.

I keep getting older, and the text size on Daring Fireball keeps staying the same.

I feel this soo much. It's part of the reason that I make the default font as big as it is. I understand that a user might have a default style sheet or setting. I feel that designing for a larger initial font, makes this particular theme more flexible.

To be honest, I don’t want my tools to be able to write in my style. I have enough trouble communicating and don’t want to get more complacent.

Serving my blog posts as Linux manual pages | James' Coffee Blog
Earlier this week, with a spark for building but no particular idea in mind, I started to think about the Linux manual page. Could I serve my blog posts as Linux manual pages? Herein lay an adventure.

WHOA! This completely blew my mind!

I haven’t done any formatting for the newsletter that micro.blog allows you to send. I’ll add it to the list and it will be the next series of Labarum Posts.

Tailwind vs Semantic CSS
This study compares two websites with identical design: the commercial Spotlight template from developers of Tailwind vs the same site with semantic CSS

I found this via Robb Knight's mastodon/website and laughed to myself when I read No Comment.

I've been using tools that help developer things faster for years. It feels like all the time we save accrues interest and we have to payback in other costs.
