  The Web is Better, Part 2 I spent this past weekend doing website maintenance. I moved some older portfolio work into my Archive. It’s where older static versions of the site go. Of course a lot of the links on that page are to the Internet Archive itself, which has lots of my old work saved for history. This work is...

  Misc Notes And Recent Updates Last night I posted my 2020 piece for Burn All Books’ Riso anthology Sundays Quarterly 5 with the theme of “ALTERNATIVE FUTURES.” My comic predates the Marvel and DC cinematic multiverses by mere months. It’s 60 years later than the comics multiverses. In this timeline. And this morning I just posted my comic “Silence”. I...

  Editing frames in old .swf and .spl files My career started with HTML, and then Flash. Flash had a great run, but mobile devices with limited battery life and Flash movies which required complicated computation were not a good match. People mostly don’t make Flash content anymore, though some actual cartoon animation has had Flash in their workflows. As for my own personal...

  Owning my own bookmarks over 20 years When I worked as a respiratory therapist part of my responsibilities was to keep flowsheets for the mechanical ventilators I worked on. That’s a record of what the machine was doing with a time log. And when I gave a breathing treatment to an asthma patient I recorded the details of that treatment, the time,...

  Another take on a semicircular border Among the bounty of blog posts I’m reading in my new RSS reader that got my brain humming was this post on semicircular borders on a round element.

  My CSS Battle Plugins I put up the CSS Battle Plugins I use on GitHub: artlung-cssbattle-plugins. I try to play daily. It’s a bit harder on the road, when I only have an iPad but I’ve managed to make it work. I started playing in November last year. As of right this minute I’m ranked number 41 of all...

  The Web Is Better. When we old heads talk about how the web is much better, I wonder sometimes how it lands on the ears of younger people. The cliché of a parent saying “I had to walk to school, both ways, in the snow.” Here’s a datapoint. Here’s a chunk of code: It’s not great code. I can...

  Bits and Pieces Programming The Photos page was an instance of Gallery I originally installed 20 years ago. I was never quite happy with the way it was presented. The last update I made was maybe 10 years ago, moving it out of Gallery and using the database tables to drive something hand-rolled. Yesterday I was able to remove...
