Note taking has become irregular. Need to get back into it. Very happy to see updates to web.dev/learn Learn Accessibility Learn HTML I know there is a lot more coming in the new year. Spent some time researching ActivityPub – Personally I found it all a bit complex Added ActivityPub to this blog so that it publishes a feed and posts it to subscribers. ActivityPub ecosystem needs a Technical Writer.

  • Note taking has become irregular. Need to get back into it.
  • Very happy to see updates to web.dev/learn
  • Spent some time researching ActivityPub – Personally I found it all a bit complex
    • Added ActivityPub to this blog so that it publishes a feed and posts it to subscribers.
    • ActivityPub ecosystem needs a Technical Writer.
    • The datastore is built on FireStore (works pretty well).
  • For all that people talk about the amazing DX of Vercel and their tools, I felt like I constantly hit snags:
    • They don’t (yet) have a deployment event webhook – so I can’t tell when my site is successfully deployed (I need it for updating web-mentions and ActivityPub)… So I had to create an integration.
    • I get why they have integrations as a business, but… There doesn’t seem to be a way to test them without deploying them; Their API is not well documented; They have no client library – you can build one because they have an OpenAPI spec, but I found the tooling around this to be poor for JS and TypeScript – so I ended up just crating
    • Edge Middleware, Edge Functions and Serverless functions each with differing runtimes.
    • and… there’s just a lot of stuff missing that I would expect from a cloud platform (scheduled tasks, recurring tasks, queued task) for example. I really don’t want to have to research everything all the time in the platform (it’s one of the reasons why I liked AppEngine).
    • That all being said – I still like Vercel.
  • Chat GPT is rather incredible – need to get researching ML again because the industry is passing me by and it all feels magic
