@bsky.app has not yet verified @alistapart.com, we suppose because they’ve got bigger fish to fry first. We guess that at least some members of the Bluesky team learned their craft from us and trust that they’ll get around to verifying us sooner or later. Reshare if you care.

Schema.org - Schema.org Schema.org is a set of extensible schemas that enables webmasters to embed structured data on their web pages for use by search engines and other applications.

One thing in which AI helped me a lot this week is schema.org markup.
Upload the HTML file and ask AI to suggest the best schema.org markup for the page.
I never even bothered with schema.org markup before, because there are so many Things and I couldn't find the right ones.

A screenshot of ChatGPT's response to my accusation that it made a false claim, so I hate it for that! Response highlights: 'focusable' isn't a valid HTML attribute. I know debugging accessibility issues can be really frustrating, and all is good between us?

My links ✣ S.Bistrović Here are my links and profiles from all over the web, from social networks to projects and publications.

Webring people, do you know if it's mandatory to place Webring links on all pages of my site?
Can I place it on one page, like I currently do?

Although it wasn't a high-quality game, I made my first brilliant move today (at least, the first one I have ever found).

Using Pages CMS for Static Site Content Management | CSS-Tricks I know, I know: there are a ton of content management system options available, and while I've tested several, none have really been the one, y'know? Weird pricing models, difficult customization,…

Yesterday I found out about Pages CMS.
It took me less than an hour to set it up.
The interface is so clean and intuitive.
I really like that the configuration is part of the dashboard.
Works great for my site, silvestar.codes.

rel="modulepreload" - HTML: HyperText Markup Language | MDN The modulepreload keyword, for the rel attribute of the <link> element, provides a declarative way to preemptively fetch a module script, parse and compile it, and store it in the document's module…

Today I learned about rel="modulepreload".

modulepreload processes the module for immediate execution, not just caching it like preload does. o_O
