I read a bunch of “HTML web components” posts when they were buzzing around a few months ago. But I think this one I just read is the aha moment for me.
This guy should start a CSS blog or something.
Microblog
Got my year in review published. TL;DR:

- Spoke at a conference
- Made a handful of new web apps
- Joined Mastodon

- Made a game
Happy year-end Last.fm report to those who celebrate.
2023 was my first year to use Last.fm since like 2008 or something. It’s been fun to see all the different stats. And it gives my brain warm fuzzies that they wait until the actual end of the year to generate the report.
Reminder that I’m offering 50% off new annual subs to A Fine Start Premium through January 12.
A Fine Start is my new tab page browser extension. It transforms your new tab page into a minimalist list of links.
It’s free! You only pay if you want the link syncing service.
Rather than use any number of available chat apps, @mhilltopple and I have been building our own private Discord knock-off during our holiday time off.
One of the first things we did was reinstate the original Discord typeface, Whitney.
JavaScript console: missing ) after argument list
Me: so you are telling me you know what I did wrong and you know how to fix it but you decided to stop execution and yell at me instead
I have this fantasy where I live in this small village town where everyone is friendly and takes care of each other and my day job is the village web designer and one of my responsibilities is the local news website but it’s just stuff like Bob’s Donuts is experimenting with a new flavor this week.

Remember when Discord’s in-app typeface was Whitney? ❤️ https://www.typography.com/fonts/whitney/overview
I have a file I’m working on named chat.php and I can’t stop calling it chatgpt by accident.
@lasermatts Your RPG Discord bot looks pretty neat!
Arc users:
Do you get annoyed with tabs “falling asleep” then reloading when you click on them? A reload has potential ramifications. I don’t want a page to reload without my say so.

I’m just gonna say it. The ask-our-AI features of some support documentation sites are really handy. Stripe and Cloudflare both have these and they can save a ton of time wading through docs.
Just added some more improvements. Thanks, everyone, for the feedback and kind words!
- Better mobile support
- iPhone homescreen app-capable (with icon!)
- Mark paste as listed (shows up on your public pastebin)
- Sort notes alphabetically or by last updated
- Get the note/paste URL in the sidebar
- Restore previous scroll position when deactivating preview
I just added a bit better mobile support to https://write.omg.lol/
Attention omglolers…
You know what the world needs? Yet another note-taking app!
Why? Because I had the address “write.omg.lol” and I wanted to make something fun with it! (This is the way.)
Write is a notepad that saves your notes as unlisted pastes in your omg.lol pastebin. It can preview markdown. It has a distraction free mode. It has color themes. It has bugs (probably). It’s desktop size only right now but mobile is my next priority.
Check it out: https://write.omg.lol/
A Mississippi man sustained multiple mental and emotional injuries after a run in with CORS.
He was heard moments ago yelling, “ACCESS CONTROL ALLOW YOUR MOM,” after which he was seen flipping his computer desk.
Said the man after a calm exhale, “I am now ready for the sweet peace of death.”
