One of the problems I have hiring caregivers is that I get a lot of applications with almost no info on them. I wonder if it’s ppl who need to apply in order to keep getting unemployment.
I understand, to an extent, but it sucks because I’m using PPC Indeed ads so I have to pay for their click even tho they don’t really want the job.
I’m just an individual. So I don’t have a big ad budget.
My theory could be wrong but I *am* certain some people apply who don’t want the job. Just not sure why.
Hiring caregivers for me and my brother. It’s tough, but I’m proud of the lil PHP app we made for receiving and processing applications.
My whole day was tanked with a whack-a-mole-style onslaught of Docker and NPM errors. Finally got my environment running again but, man, my brain was fried afterward.

Testing out iA Writer for my notes. I had been using Craft, which is pretty nice, but a release a few weeks ago broke the interactivity of the scrollbar, which, unfortunately, is an a11y showstopper for me.
I’ve been using iA Writer for years for writing, but never for my notes collection. So far, so good!
I might return to Craft if they fix this issue soon, tho. Great team over there doing cool stuff.
(Yes I know about Obsidian and no I can’t use it either because of a11y reasons.)
For literally no reason The Hollies’ Long Cool Woman in a Black Dress popped in my head and made itself at home.
How do web-based desktop apps (eg, Slack, Discord) perform compared to fully native desktop apps in terms of screen readers?

For the last two days at work, I’ve been able to:
- Write plain CSS
- Write vanilla JavaScript
- Use a library without a build step
Breath of fresh air, let me tell you.
I keep seeing a lot of posts about @eleventy so I just want to throw mine out there. I made this website for listening to synthwave mixes from YouTube.
One cool thing about Eleventy is that it can generate pages from API data, which is exactly what mine does.
I wrote some thoughts down about CSS micro-frameworks and classless CSS themes. https://blakewatson.com/journal/surveying-the-landscape-of-css-micro-frameworks/
My general feeling is that most of these are dated and perhaps not as useful as they once were because of how good CSS is now. But I still think there is a place for frameworks for providing good default styles.
I’d love to see some more modern ones, if they exist.
Anybody have any micro CSS frameworks they like? These are a sort of step up in capability from classless themes, but are smaller than something like Bootstrap.
A few examples I know of:
- Pico: https://picocss.com/
- Spectre: https://picturepan2.github.io/spectre
- Milligram: https://milligram.io
- Skeleton: http://getskeleton.com/
- Picnic: https://picnicss.com/
- Pure: https://purecss.io/

Speaking of classless CSS stylesheets, I should of included a link to the OG collection from the W3C. https://www.w3.org/StyleSheets/Core/
Honorable mention: While it isn’t technically classless, and it also requires a web font, Doodle is a fun one that makes all of your form elements look hand drawn. https://chr15m.github.io/DoodleCSS/
