I recently dusted off one of my abandoned side projects. It’s a website where I share my web dev bookmarks. It's called "bookmarks98" because, you guessed it, it’s heavily inspired by Windows 98 #BuiltWithEleventy

The genocide in Gaza is the greatest stain on our generation, wrought by everyone who allowed it to happen
This is what the Israelis and their apologists call a targeted, anti-terror campaign.

This is Rafah today.

there's something fascinating (and horrible, sure) about the way these things burn through cultural capital. Like the evocative pleasures of "ghibli-style" imagery have been built up over decades and in two days nobody is ever going to want to see it again
Stuff like this is perfect because it shows how utterly devoid of creativity genAI evangelists are.

Great you recreated a photo that already exists in a drawing style that only has currency because of who you're stealing it from giving the world something with absolutely no value or meaning.
OpenAI released a new version of their image generation technology, and people are using it to recreate memes in the style of Studio Ghibli.

We will never forget or forgive the politicians, media outlets, and journalists who actively enabled the genocide, or the so-called prominent feminists and academics who chose cowardly silence in the face of it!

This may be the end of the fighting. It certainly won't be the end of the genocide.

Palestinians will need massive amounts of aid as they begin to recover and rebuild. Gazans will still be living in the world's largest open air prison.
Oh God please let this be the end of it. Fifteen months of genocide. Fifteen months begging supposedly moral people to do the moral thing. Fifteen months watching people who know better lie or be silent when they knew what was going on.

So I hate to tag the mods- but I sent this email about the mass deletion of Palestinian accounts over a week ago to @support.bsky.team and I haven’t heard anything back (apologies if I somehow missed an email). I’d like to ensure it will be seen by the proper people.

Complete CSS is by far the longest course I've done. It's 55 lessons long broken into 7 modules.

Learn Eleventy From Scratch was 31 and Learn CSS was 25 lessons when I did the first edition

I've drafted 36 lessons now and on the final writing sprint. It's been a slog 😅

Genuinely excited to see the massive shift to Bluesky. Feels like a real seismic moment.

I know it's JUST social media but old Twitter was so instrumental for indiedevs to connect with other devs, share techniques, reach potential players and get publishing deals.

Let's get that back.

did the web dev folks move over here? can we get a megathread going so it’s easier to find folks we were following elsewhere?

Bluesky is funny because I can’t recall any other platform where its growth is explicitly tied to the collective hate for one person.

I love that more and more people are becoming aware of the copyright infringement issues and the environmental impact of gen AI, but I feel like the fact that these rich AI companies rely on slave labor in the global south to label their data is not being talked about enough
