The August Review is here! I talked about the various things that kept me busy this month - games, work - and some stuff I have coming up next month!

I blogged about #PelikanHub. It was meant to be part of my August review but became long enough to merit its own post.

#BringBackBlogging #Blog

I now have a personal not-a-blog:
http://bloglessness.pockettheories.com/

I make it a point to post engineering notes, ramblings, and thoughts every single day.

#Blog #Blogging #BringBackBlogging

It's (already) February, so my hope that the #BringBackBlogging challenge would magically generate some 2022 review posts failed 😅

However, I did get 3 articles out, so I'm still counting this as a win! 🎉

1. https://theadhocracy.co.uk/wrote/clickable-confusion-with-nvda
2. https://theadhocracy.co.uk/wrote/local-data-store-in-astro
3. https://theadhocracy.co.uk/wrote/a-valid-html-datetime

(even if I forgot to share the third one... I'm bad at this, okay!)
(all for https://bringback.blog/)

I always have trouble generating valid HTML `datetime` attributes! The spec is strict, and I find that my incoming data/final copy rarely matches its requirements.

You'd think there would be a simple way to do this, but I'm yet to find it! 😅 So I figured I'd write myself a note on the best solution I've found *so far*.

(if you know of a better one, please lmk 😉)

Whoo! I started late, but I managed the #BringBackBlogging challenge by the skin of my teeth: 3 posts in January on an RSS feed. Honestly, so far, I'm enjoying it. I plan to keep up for the duration of this 6 week #PopupBlog, and then reevaluate, but will probably continue writing in some format or another. (A new popup blog? A full season of a longer blog? Longer, shorter?)

Docs as code, why is this such a strange idea?

#BringBackBlogging

Following up on my search for an #Evernote replacement, I have landed on #OneNote. No, I haven't tried other alternatives like #Notion or #Zoho – I haven't the patience nor time. But it's working out for me. I explain in my 3rd #bringbackblogging post for January: https://mediageek.net/2023/01/i-may-have-found-what-im-looking-for-note-taking-with-less-friction/

New #blog post:
https://www.schafe-sind-bessere-rasenmaeher.de/posts/the-devils-hour-2022/

I've been tooting about #TheDevilsHour for a few days now and finally finished the first season.

tl;dr: go and watch it! Like...right now! If you're into creepy atmosphere and mystery, it's 6h well spent. 🤩

If you want some deeper thoughts, feel free to spend a few minutes with my blog post. But beware: SPOILERS!!!

This also marks my 3/3 posts for #BringBackBlogging, although I feel it's a little unfair to have a spoiler heavy blog post in there. 😅

Hi friends, inspired by @nat's pop up blogs and @amoroso's invitation to join #BringBackBlogging (bringback.blog), I'm trying a 6 week pop-up blog on #software.

I'd love your feedback/thoughts on anything I write.

Here goes the first post of 2023...

Bring back personal blogging reminds me of the initial days of the web before microblogging so common.

2023 may bring back personal blogs, but some questions remain about new AI tools.

@odddev Ooh, thank you. I've been thinking about trying Write Freely, and also about setting up a blog/newsletter in the spirit of #BringBackBlogging (bringback.blog)

J'ai re-blogué... #BringBackBlogging

For my first post of 2023 (and my first in the https://bringback.blog/ challenge) I failed to write on any of the topics that I had planned 😅

**But** I did manage to find the root cause of an accessibility bug raised at work that I felt was worth writing up. Spoiler alert: this wasn't so much a bug as an unexpected behaviour between NVDA and Storybook 🤷‍♂️

In my 2nd blot post for #bringbackblogging I examine the apparent new Gen Z trend, with the NY Times reporting that they're embracing 2000s era digital cameras: The Digicam Revival – I Saw It Coming

Published my third and final post for the #bringbackblogging campaign!

https://koolaidwithkaran.com/finding-and-following-blogs

Currently #writing my final post as part of the #bringbackblogging campaign for the month of January.

I took this opportunity to write about blogging itself with the hope that I could get even a single reader to join me in the blogosphere.

Trying to do my part to #bringbackblogging by setting up a @writefreely instance for my friends and family while also #writing about #blogging on my own blog 😊

In the continuing spirit of #bringbackblogging I want to share this post that started out as a Tw*tter thread while I had my account locked, and one of my tweeps asked me to turn it into something more shareable: The Best Way To Deal with “Difficult” People: Don’t
