As an HTML hobbyist, it is excruciating to constantly come up against the difference between what I think I know and what I actually know. This is how I learn best, but it is so humbling. I thought I understood including in-line SVG images. I’m progressing.

I was diagnosed with ADHD back in the late 1900s, and recently I’ve learned enough to strongly suspect a second diagnosis. This knowledge does a lot to explain myself to myself, what I do and why. But let me tell you the gravity of the consequences does not stop revealing itself to me.

I wouldn’t say I’m never satisfied. But I would say that satisfaction with anything I work on is temporary. Today I’m thinking about the design of my vanity one-page website. I’m thinking about the link to it from Micro.blog, and I’m also thinking about a major CSS overhaul of my Micro.blog itself.

I stopped using my real name at restaurants. I have been using “Silver” because my beard is mostly grey. I figure that would help people wondering who was whom. But if I tell people “Silver”, what I see on the receipt is “Siler” and “Sliver”. So, problem not solved.

TIL that adding an RSS source to Micro.blog does require separate settings for replication, and therefore does allow distinct replication options. Micro.blog does not assume you want each source handled identically, even if that is your own intent.

Also?

Micro.blog does not know that a service you wish to replicate to will require an application specific password. Micro.blog does not know you my need an “@” symbol in front of your username.

You have to know.

And you may have forgotten you knew.

Some things just do not work in Safari on iPadOS. Some things just do not work in Safari on MacOS. I do try to stay Apple-native on Apple devices, though I do wish Apple allowed alternate web tech on iOS. But sometimes, I just switch to Firefox to get me over some bumps in the road.

Might need to switch up strategies. My window for reading at bedtime is becoming more variable and shorter.
