⭑ salma

Hi, friends. The last 6 years have been a blast, but I just don't like being on The Internet anymore. I'm leaving DevRel, and I wrote a little bit about why. Look after yourselves, and each other. Love, Salma

I gave a talk at EMF titled "Men in Tech #YesAllMen", in which I told my experience of being a woman in tech. I was afraid to publish it in case it affected my current or future employment. With all the current news I would like to add my 2¢. So here is the recording: youtu.be/WXL6K1lhvt0?...

it's a new season for technology & for technologists, and our labor and its impact to the world are both more greater and more dangerous than ever. how do we make sense of work in an industry many of us no longer recognize?

Web development fucked. Design fucked. Freelancing fucked. Content creation fucked. Education fucked Blogging fucked. Dev rel fucked. Hard to find a purpose in this brave new world.

I cannot put into words how overwhelmed (complimentary) I am with your replies, messages and well-wishes. Right now, I am sitting in my garden, it’s warm, there’s a gentle breeze, it’s approaching the golden hour, and I feel truly, inexplicably and so wonderfully free. You, too, can be free. 💜

This is one of the best posts on dev rel I have ever read. The truth is, it's always existential. I will miss salma's online presence but I am very happy for her.

I feel everything in this article so deeply. My main drivers have always been community, craft, learning and helping others learn - and man, it's such a tough time for all of those things.

I think you deserve malware if ur still using twitter tbh

progress is not linear

This is a long shot. I have a Roli Seaboard Rise 2 that I’ve never used and I’d like to sell it. It’s in perfect condition. DM me if you’re curious and interested.

I don't know where "there" is, but we're getting there for sure.

I need corporations to understand that not every purchase I've ever made in my life needs to result in receiving a weekly newsletter forever.

new on strangers: “...it's something else that weaves my veins into the fabric of the city: it is not the people who make me feel a part of it, but those that make me feel apart from it.” 🤍 thanks, as ever, for reading :)

Just remembered this memory. What a time.

My mum once printed a document, scanned it, and emailed me the scanned images of the document.

The time to fight back against Google is right now or we end up with AOL, slop edition. tante.cc/2026/05/20/o...

We've been experimenting with CSS´s upcoming Random() function to see what it can do. In the mean time we found a few browser crashes and a way to implement random-item() before it actually lands. Best viewed in Polypane 29+ (For now!) polypane.app/blog/experim...

The HTML cat is out of the Web Audio bag. I've finally released HYPERBLAM. It’s my system for sampling, processing, and sequencing sound and music directly in HTML. hyperblam.how

“what if websites were felt” yes but what if websites were /felt/ > i thought about when this code was young, vernal in your hands — when you touched its first HTML file and began to sculpt. i opened the source code and it felt like standing in your room after you had gone out.

Do not sleep on this event! The organisers are absolutely delightful, the speakers are world class, and as a bonus, I’ll be there 🔥

NO MORE TECHNOLOGY WE HAVE ENOUGH

i feel like i should run but i hate running pls advise

when i said 'let’s circle back to that' i more meant, like, in a different era, a different city, another life. let's circle back to it when we're old, or maybe when we're young again...we'll circle back in vienna, or in cairo, or in those slender black cat streets of paris, streetlamps and gossip

you can wear whatever you want btw

Explain your @ i am not white i am not a p4nth3r alas i do not know what a p4nth3r is either i am also internet

Everybody thinks 'https://' stands for 'hypertext transfer protocol secure' but it actually stands for 'head to this place, sucka' followed by a colon and two laser sounds

how about we just create a better environment for the children instead of locking them out of opportunity and exploration and information as a result we’ll have a better environment for everyone it’s not that ridiculous a concept is it?

an airhorn can be anything

Education by humans is the only one true real form of education for humans. And Mia is one amazing human.

don't ever say "spicy autocomplete" in my presence the debate of whether or not this technology works detracts from the implications of its widespread corporate deployment, regardless of efficacy.

A few weeks ago, I talked about AI and its impact, and the uncertainty it's causing. It was a bit downbeat. I thought it would be a good idea to make something with a bit more of an uplifting message as a follow-up. Of course it hit a new audience and all the haters have shown up in the comments 😅
