Front End Study Hall #037

Tuesday we will join minds and hearts and keyboards and code for Front End Study Hall 37. We get together to learn HTML and CSS new and old. Event info is on the #IndieWeb events website. It's a Zoom! If you're HTML-curious, or CSS-phobic, this is the place. events.indieweb.org/2025/09/fron...

Awesome! This approach would be good for syncing maybe? When I left Spotify, the trouble I had was getting their data export into another service, e.g. Apple Music. I had to write a UI to search Apple’s catalog, find & confirm the best match, and add it to a playlist. They don’t make it easy!

So one of the things that I think is lost on AI proponents is what I call the card catalog effect, a thing I shouldn’t call it because a lot of people probably have no experience with a card catalog.

If you have ever received treasury payments - tax returns, student loans, financial aid, social security, etc. Call your bank, mortgage company, credit card company, university. Express concerns about the federal personal data breach. Ask how they will protect your information. Put on the pressure!

Yes! Astro is a joy to work with. Are you thinking you’ll do any #IndieWeb functionality like Webmentions? It’s awesome to interact with each other’s sites. ✨

I miss a good bowl of ramen. Instant with extras is pretty tasty though.

Salad is almost back in season! Crinkle cut veggies make it extra fancy.

Astrophysicists theorize that 85% of the day is spent doing β€œdark work” which cannot be directly measured but is implied by how tired I feel
