Me last night: commits a bad merge and sleeps soundly
Slack this morning:
Microblog

I just realized that I think of Jim Carrey's How the Grinch Stole Christmas as a "new movie."
What is a really old movie that you still think of as a new movie? For example, one of mine is The Matrix.
Yo web app devs: if your app has a light/dark/theme setting, please store it at the device level, not the account level. Someone might want light mode on one device, but dark mode on another.

I got so used to the coffee at my last employer that now I drink it at home. Community Dark brewed with a Mr. Coffee machine. Get your fancy pants stuff out of my face.
Dear RSS reader,
I am removing microblog posts from my main RSS feed. If for some weird reason you would like to continue getting them, please subscribe to the following feed:
/journal/category/microblog/feed
What remains are the 3–5 articles I write per year, usually about web development and personal projects.

I find myself wanting to post emoji reactions to statuses on status.lol. But all you can do is look. Maybe that's how it should be.
After omg.lol was featured on Hacker News it received 1,070 new signups. I was one of them! One of its features is a Mastodon instance, so I'm finally in the Fediverse I guess. @bw

Feeling grateful for all the free and open source software out there that keeps civilization running.
What’s the easiest way to auto-publish Mastodon posts to Twitter?
😀
If everything worked correctly, this status should show up at https://blakewatson.com/microblog.
🤓
Playing around with the statuslog webhook and API (this is a test lol).

I just bought an omg.lol address so I could see how far off base the haters on Hacker News were. They all over there like: WhY DoN'T YoU JuSt gEt yOuR OwN DoMaIn??
*tap tap* is this thing on?
