#ClimateDiary We are having a party today - it’s my 50th birthday! I was hoping for a garden party (see invite - my favourite album & cover) but it’s another day of rain and storm. Never mind, indoors good too.

I share my 50th with Schumacher’s #SmallIsBeautiful and, in that spirit, kept it small and local. But it’s made me think of friends old and new in other parts of the world - including all of you here! Would love to have a #ClimateDiary party too one day 😊#Community #Friends #Reggae

Quelques créations malicieuses de Vincent Bal, réalisateur belge et shadowologist (ombrologue).

Croisées lors de l’exposition « Small is Beautiful » à la Galerie Jospeh à Paris en 2021.

A really lovely article about cooking & eating together & community buidling. I really feel that organising small evenings evening meals together is amongst one of the very best things we can do at the moment, for all round wellbeing. A fellow school mum suggested an evening like this, we are meeting at her house next week, can’t wait.

Welcome to all Newbies! To me, the #Fediverse is at the core of of a wider #Commoning social movement, of ever more of us recognising that other worlds are possible and building these together.

2023 is 50ys since Schumacher’s #SmallIsBeautiful and this cover sums it all up: the new world is almost born and it’s happening here (paraphrasing #Gramsci) 😊

I try to contribute through environmental #anthropology #PoliticalEcology #ClimateDiary and any other way I can think of

#WildFlowerHour love this time of year when our grass is full of #WhiteClover and #SelfHeal - so small, so easy to miss, yet so incredibly beautiful and amazing when you look closely

@bethsawin in the #Fediverse! Gives me hope that this is happening in 2023, the 50 year anniversary of #SmallIsBeautiful. Love the cover of this edition - have been sharing this image and message at every talk etc i have given this year!

But there’s one way in which ‘slightly larger’ is also beautiful: moving from #Individualism and the #NuclearFamily to #Community. Last week, in one day, two different local school mums started talking to me about this, wanting change. That gives me hope, too.

Right, I’ve reintroduced the ES Module loader and it now maps the new Kitten extensions (.page.js, .component.js, .post.js, etc.) to ESM so you can, once again, use them without having to have a package.json file with "type": "module" in your projects.

I’ve updated the distribution builds so if you’re playing with Kitten, please reinstall to get the latest.

Join me at 5PM Irish time (UTC+1) today for a look at what’s been happening with Kitten¹ and Domain² in the past month. I’ll be reviewing some of the cow paths I’ve been paving and the patterns that are emerging in Kitten as I build Domain using it.

I just saw that we have 789 people following our Owncast server from the fediverse (Mastodon, etc.) and may I just say, wow!

Thank you :)

https://owncast.small-web.org/

(It’s where we stream Small Is Beautiful every third Thursday of the month with updates on how the Small Web is shaping up. And we have one tomorrow at 5PM Irish time/UTC+1)

Did I mention you can persist #JavaScript class instances in #JSDB¹ in #Kitten²?

(Well, you can.)

It’s a great way to get type information/auto-completion while building your #SmallWeb site/app.

e.g., https://codeberg.org/domain/app/src/branch/main/app_modules/database/database.js

I’ll be talking about some of the more advanced features in Kitten on tomorrow’s #SmallIsBeautiful live stream (follow our #owncast from your fediverse account to be notified when we go live): https://owncast.small-web.org

@canongatebooks i have just signed up too 😊 i have long been a fan of Canongate books, partly becase my absokutely favourite club as a student in Edinburgh in the early 1990s was #ChocolateCity , run by Charlie who later took over Canongate books! And: i feel in even more excellent company turning 50 this year: you and #SmallIsBeautiful too 😊

3 weeks left in the job. Then back to being indy. 🥳 Super super excited 🪩 #SmallIsBeautiful

Better late than never, I just made some time to release the recording for this month’s Small is Beautiful (#28).

https://small-tech.org/videos/small-is-beautiful-28/

Jump to the 19 minute mark if you want to skip me working around the fact that the Node.js web site decided our stream was the best time to 404 on the Node binary version Kitten downloads and uses 🤦‍♂️

Mind you, with the help of the community, I issued a new Kitten release with a newer binary during the stream and continued so… :kitten: 💕

#SmallIsBeautiful

Small Is Beautiful live stream starts in ~20 minutes :)

We’re going to make a silly little blog page in Markdown and then add commenting to it using Kitten. Feel free to follow along and ask questions during the stream.

@ShaulaEvans I feel it too. I just try to remember that all of this—but especially the attention economy we’ve all bought into—is extremely fleeting. It shall too pass. But there is no substitute for following the voice of conscience, or your soul. I am grateful that there is at least a small community of people who are willing to say f*ck that shit—and walk away—and that there is actually a viable alternative finally, even if it’s still radically smaller in scale. #smallisbeautiful

Small is Beautiful: live stream today at 5PM Irish Time (UTC)
