Huge news! I've written a book. This is a story of light and dark that won't leave you indifferent. Illustrated, atmospheric, and meaningful. The kind that stays with you. Please enjoy this cover reveal for Loggerheads: zakarcher.com/blog/cover-... 📚💙

Love or hate AI, but you cannot deny how instrumental it has been in helping companies speedrun hypocrisy self-reporting.

Feels nice to finally be drafting this 😌 I hope you're on the newsletter already at bytebinding.com/. You don't want to miss this announcement.

Imagine having to ship software and being blocked by this. Sometimes the biggest spyware is your OS.

A very good question, past me. A very good question.

Was at a bookstore recently and saw a gorgeous book set. Picked it up, looked at it closer, and it had a hand with the pinky's farthermost phalanx about the size of the index finger. No artist would ever draw something this stupid. It was AI 🤦 A popular series, mind you.

Do you remember where you were when you got your first celery?

Matt pulling off my TestJS Summit 2024 outfit is a nice nod ❤️ Looks great on you.

I can't believe there's nearly 70 of you following @bytebinding.com while knowing/seeing very little of what it can do. Sorry for the secrecy. I'm writing the announcement emails as we speak. If you're an author, you really want to be on the waitlist: bytebinding.com Thank you!

A kind reminder to rotate your keys. Go to your front doors right now and do just that: rotate the key. You never know when the position of your key has been compromised. You're welcome.

Are there any tech journalists on Bluesky who would be interested in covering a new EPUB editor on the market? I have no ad campaign and nothing to pay you. All I have is a really good software that will solve many of your readers' problems if your readers are writers. Hit me up.

Extremely grateful to be included! Thank you, @sentry.io. Your continuous support of MSW pushes API mocking on the web further. You are the absolute best ❤️ blog.sentry.io/another-year...

React in desktop apps is an overkill. React on the web is often an overkill, too.

I am fairly confident Byte Binding will have the best documentation out of any EPUB editor. Cannot wait to show it to you!

It's once again my privilege to bring you another interview with an outstanding indie author. This time I've been talking to @akairondragon.ca, ahead of the launch of Children of Wrath, book two in her epic dark sci-fantasy saga, All Our Sins. Check out the interview below 👇 💙📚🪐 | 📢📚

✍️ Just published a new post about my most-anticipated CSS proposals from Interop 2027! If you’re not familiar, the Interop project is a collaboration between browsers to pick shared focus areas. There’s *so much* good stuff this year, it was hard to pick just 10!

Documenting @bytebinding.com puts my love of writing docs to the test 😅 There's just so much you can do with the editor. I think I found the right tone and verbosity I want though, that's a win already.

If you are an indie author, this is a good time to follow @bytebinding.com and join the waitlist. A new EPUB editor is coming to solve some of long-standing pain points you've been having with creating and formatting EPUB. 💙📚

✂️ Huge shoutout to Pennylane for starting to generously support Knip through GitHub Sponsors. They don't seem to be on here, but here's sending good vibes anyway for their support to OSS in general. Thank you! 🫶 GitHub org: github.com/pennylane-hq Website: www.pennylane.com/us

My PS5 controller's battery is dead. Straight doesn't charge anymore. Looking for third-party controllers that aren't janky. Any recs?

A good weekend of rest before continuing the preparations for launching @bytebinding.com. Somehow, I'm looking forward to drafting the marketing campaign.

TIL some companies subsidize domain names for open-source projects. And here I am, paying $50 a year for almost a decade. You should've told me or something. I thought we were friends.

Standing near this fountain in Warcraft 3 is one of the warmest video game experiences of my childhood.

If you want a perspective of how archaic and outdated the reality of e-readers is, just remember that WOFF 1.0 was introduced 16 years ago and it's still not consistently supported on all devices. And this is very far from an exception.

Imagine paying good money for a computer and then getting this level of slopmanship in the OS. It says "Folders" if you can't quite make out. The last two macOS versions are an absolute failure of design. I'm regretting having to update. Please stay away from liquid ass.
