I have deployed my scientist-aunt superpower and have explained to my 7-year-old nieces about the gut microbiome and what kinds of foods the good bacteria like to eat and now they are asking for more vegetables and beans to keep their little microbes happy 😁

Death certificate request form asking if the person listed on the death certificate is a) myself or b) someone else

you may laugh but this is excellent inclusive UX for post-living users

I just geeked out that you can set a JavaScript event listener to check if a user is currently viewing your website tab with document.visibilityState. I never needed this until today. <3

Currently building a game Wordpress plugin and even if no one ends up using it, I've learned how it all works. Shortly, I'll be able to build a larger plugin. Next on the list, world domination.

Well that sucks. Have you checked it with SpamAssassin? Amavis or ClamAV? Have you tried turning it off and on again and then throwing it out the window to live a more peaceful life? :)

Yes, so much of coding is black and white that I often forget there are grey areas sometimes. 🙃😀

I made an API for you to check and validate DKIM-Records:

Feedback is appreciated :)

Spent unknown amount of time (hours) last night trying to figure out why my JavaScript fetch was fetching a json string with an extra '0' on the end of it. I'm ashamed of the amount of time I spent researching cors on local to find out it was a misplaced "wp_die( '0' );". 😅🙃

I like it! 👍

Creating a web scraper for both Node.js (Axios & Cheerio) and PHP (Simple HTML DOM) has been the highlight of my working day. Scrape all the things!

Google Changes Update: "Enforcement will be gradual and progressive." Starting Feb 1, 2024 Senders will start getting temporary errors (with error codes) on a small percentage of their non-compliant email traffic. These temporary errors are meant to help senders identify email traffic that doesn't meet our guidelines so that senders can resolve issues that result in non-compliance.

If your emails aren't going through or landing in spam, contact me and we can get it resolved by updating SPF, DKIM, and DMARC records!

Question: When I was 4, my sister was 2. I am now 44. How old is my sister? Programmer: 44 - (4-2) = 42. Tester responds that she could be 41 or 42, dead, adopted, etc.

Oh. 😅🙃

Job posting: "Looking for an EXPERIENCED JUNIOR dev PROFICIENT in web dev tech."

Tell me you want a senior dev for junior pay 😂🤡

The geek in me rejoices when I am introduced to code that I never needed until now - Today it's JavaScript's selectionStart and selectionEnd for input text field control. 🎉

Updating a client's DMARC today, writing a few proposals and then finally code time!

I love my job :)

Yeah, but thankfully I weed those people out. I know my worth :)

Joined UpWork and I'm finding a lot of freelancers only have 2-4 projects they've been hired to do on there. Maybe the projects turned into full time gigs? Or maybe they don't like the platform? Time will tell how I fare.

🎉🎉🎉

Does that person need sleep? 😆

I can see that. I also saw where some people are coming on Bluesky and lying about being trans and then asking for money for rent and such, saying there are a lot of bleeding hearts on the platform. Scammers gonna scam. Sad really.

DMARC Inspector - dmarcian dmarcian's DMARC Record Checker allows you to view the DMARC record of any domain and test if the TXT record is valid and published correctly.

For DMARC, I'm using the DMARC inspector here: dmarcian.com/dmarc-inspec...

For SPF/DKIM, who do you use for domain host?

Yeah, it's like learning a foreign language in high school. You may remember some, but unless you're doing it daily, it's hard to keep up with it. Especially since nothing remains the same in tech.

I've seen a lot, but I'm happy they see it as a safe space and are comfortable sharing. 💛

So cute! How did you get your cat to lay beside you and not ON the keyboard? 😅

I've been wanting a certain (taken) domain FOR YEARS, but I haven't started the project so I can't justify trying to buy it from them. But I see it expires next month. There is no website up and they haven't renewed yet so FINGERS CROSSED!

Those who code before us are so appreciated! I almost feel GitHub and Stack Overflow need Ko-fi links.

Totally understand!

Anyone looking for illustration work? Look how beautiful!

Kinda craving caffeine this late in the day. Might go for it 😅

Yeah, it takes time to set up & get used to. I’ve wanted to flip the desk and have taken lots of breaks! In the end I think it’s worth it, but I only use it on large projects.
