I'd better put something up. It's been awhile. Here's a band photo for our one-off reunion later this year at Exile Festival, Derbyshire :-)

@dayoneapp.com love the free app, but only ever use text entries and would only ever use two mobile devices, so looking for a free or minimal solution to cover simple text-only sync? One-off fee?

Web Coding First Steps by Dave Everitt [Leanpub PDF/iPad/Kindle] A thorough step-by-step in basic HTML and CSS - build a basic responsive website and learn a little on the way

Awhile ago I wrote this for complete beginners and as a handbook for non-tech students I was teaching then. Still valid, might simplify even further: leanpub.com/webcodingfir...

do you have some quotable references and links for this- particularly the Badenoch quote, police visits and Christian (American?) lawyers? The latter I read are now campaigning in the UK :-(

Why do I always see things coming from the distant horizon, go on about it into the void while people share their dinner pics, then just suffer from fatigue when it all finally arrives and everyone's going "oh this, ah, this!"?

Protect elephants: keep global ivory ban! Elephants are being slaughtered so their tusks can be turned into trinkets. And now, some governments want to make it legal. Japan and South Africa are pushing to overturn the global ivory trading ban

The greatest trick the devil ever pulled was convincing people that it isn’t racism, it’s just “anti-DEI”.

Bye bye build steps I’m removing all build steps from all of my websites. I’m just so damn sick of having to install NPM scripts and run CLI commands every time I want to update my CSS or JavaScript. Today, I ripped out ...

delighted to see that the "build-free-process" is gaining traction. allways taught student the 3 core languages as fundamental skills before (if ever) flying off into fashionable complexities gomakethings.com/bye-bye-buil...

Haha! My father-in-law just used it to justify buying an expensive chain saw. Although he *does* do voluntary work in a forest… ;-)

See my original post, I just fixed Android key issue (I think)—tested on one Android device, but please try again!

Enter key moves to next field but fails to add text · Issue #2 · DaveEveritt/decision-maker User: “I can't figure out how to add pros on Mobile though. Galaxy S25 w/ Google keyboard. Enter key becomes "go" style arrow and just moves to the con side. When hitting "go" on the con side it's ...

A common issue, sadly. Fixed (I think) by replacing Android keyboard enter key from "next" or "go" mode to "done". Please try again!

Added issue with your feedback, updated code, pushed, tested on my father-in-law's Android tablet, closed issue with a comment :-)

haha! Well, when you do… it might even be better. But it's web-based and not yet a PWA.

Thanks for the reminder - French, of course! Only registered one German domain, so yes! Still on Fasthosts… haven't researched alternatives (need auto-renew) for years, perhaps I should.

I remember that, but perversely we used it as an opportunity to clean up our servers! They were very communicative and we manage our own servers so our outage was relatively minimal. Rimuhosting are excellent, though.

For non-total corp avoidance we use NZ-based Rimuhosting (they are really helpful and profit-share with employees) and OVH (IIRC Germany-based).

oh, I think I am! Otherwise I'd never improve anything! I will get to that issue… no rush, but I will ;-)

I find it more flexible than jekyll.
