So, my site passes muster up to Level 2 here, pretty much (my h-card is ‘incomplete’ but I’m not adding my email address, sorry). I think I’ve done all I can for now, unless I need/can use Bridgy? #link

After my previous tribulations, I finally got Webmentions (or at least pings between my own entries) to display on my posts. That involved a lot of trial and error to find the right PHP code to display comments in WordPress, which is a lot more difficult than you might imagine. More…

In the middle of another long work stretch, eight days that ends this Wednesday evening. But it also includes a press screening on Tuesday so it’s not all bad. I’m looking forward to having a couple of days off to unwind later this week. More…

Diana Smith’s art made in the medium of CSS and HTML. Very impressive. By the way, this is from my MeFi favourites, where I occasionally save stuff that interests me. #link

Filing this for future reference, when I finally get to grips with JavaScript. Then I can understand potentially useful tools like Stimulus, ‘a modest JavaScript framework for the HTML you already have’. #link

OK, I’m interested. No idea where to start, mind. #link

I’ve still got the basics down, but I could do with something like this as a refresher course. #link

For the maintenance of a cohesive visual identity. And I don't see why the principles couldn't apply to other media. #link

“A curated collection of useful CSS snippets you can understand in 30 seconds or less.” Yes please and thank you. There’s a similar project for JavaScript, too. And here’s some more lesser-known CSS quirks and advanced tips. #link

This is good; essentially a hand-holding interface for Supercollider, which is exactly what I’ve been looking for. See also: Jazzari: The Programmable Trio (an in-browser code-based tracker). #link

I have no practical application for this, but find it fascinating nevertheless. #link

I had indeed been confused about this, and will keep in mind when reviewing my CSS, which probably has more PX definitions than is strictly necessary. #link

Ah here, I haven’t even learned JavaScript yet! And stuff like this doesn’t help, either. #link

If you’re reading this, you’ve probably seen my site’s had a bit of a redesign.
Well, ‘a bit’ is putting it lightly: I coded a whole new site template from scratch over the last three days, building on the Skeleton framework that a lot of people seem to be using (from snooping around their sites with view-source, like the old days).
It’s been ages since I’ve done so much web coding — more than three years since my last redesign. I think I’ve kept things clean enough under the hood, and it resizes nicely on my smartphone.
The new look was pretty much a necessity seeing as I’ve finally migrated from Movable Type to WordPress. And boy has that been a learning curve. Not so much using the CMS itself; I’ve become familiar enough with that posting things on other sites. But getting my own stuff into the system was a challenge.

Or 'centre', depending on your version of English. Here’s one of those 'one thing well' sites that will always come in handy on occasion. #link
