Shipping the syndication feature for scdotnetv3
I shipped the syndication feature for my website today.
Getting the threads api was a bit tricky. It was easy after I had done it and I knew where to go and what to get. But before I did all of that, it was tricky.
It was the main reason why this had to be delayed till today.
There were other things I should have done by now, but haven’t because I had not shipped this feature.
Now I can go back to changing the UI. My favourite past-time.
Don’t use generative art on your blog
too many people are doing a great disservice to their writing by garnishing it with generative-ai (artificial intelligence) - ethics and values aside (lol), it looks tacky and it cheapens the words around it.
For my poems I had tried to use these at one point, when this was just starting, a couple of years ago.
But then I decided I did not want it. It did not look right. I could make it to look right, but did not want to.
I was using Ghost then, so I used images from unsplash instead. It was great!
