"How does image compression work?" by Lee Robinson
🔗 https://leerob.com/compression
This is a great explainer on how image compression works. I was wondering it myself when I was using squoosh.app to compress images for my blog.

"Screens Are Not Necessarily the Enemy" by AetherAnne
🔗https://aetheranne.ca/blog/digital-minimalism/screens-are-not-necessarily-the-enemy/
I definitely feel this way about my hobbies that I do on the Internet. I do spend a lot of time on the computer, but it's not passive. I'm always working on something, so I don't feel like I'm doomscrolling or addicted to social media.

🔗https://osteophage.neocities.org/writing/in-praise-of-links
This post got me to reevaluate if my website was a "dead-end" and I decided to create a friends page because of it!

I've decided to start linkblogging on my main when I find an interesting article or blog post
🔗 https://kristoff.it/blog/static-site-paradox/
This was one of the most memorable blog posts I read, that really got me thinking about how I wanted to structure my own blog. It really inspired me to research how static sites worked, and if I could set up an SSG too.

Claude is the "cool kid" of the retail AI services world. However, thanks to its snobbish attitude to some geographical locations, token limitations, and corporate ethos I ended up in the arms of Mistral. Why I use Mistral and why it honestly doesn't matter how great the model is as long as it serves your needs.

Sometime within the last couple of years or so, I became totally burnt out (heh) on cool colors. I've started using color schemes and themes (in different apps that support them) that employ warm, earthy colors instead.
I recently found this one and one of the things I like about its theme for VS Codeht variant does as well, ensuring that all text meets WCAG AAA contrast standards.
It's rare to find a good light theme with solid contrast. Even more so to find a good one paired with a good dark one as well. I haven't been tempted to override any of the colors yet, which is saying something.

The excitement—and, frankly, sheer giddiness—with which this developer introduces his new app is the most wholesome thing I’ve seen this week.
From the minute when I started watching it, I was thinking that the last thing I needed was an app launcher, having had a Powerpack license for Alfred for… checks notes… nearly 14 years!
But the more I watched, the more I was intrigued. Before I could even get done with the video, I had the app and the Pro license.
Yes, I am aware I have a problem.
(Yes, I know Raycast can do everything. If you like it, cool.) #linkblog

I now have a microblog/link blog based on my bookmarks on Raindrop.io because I'm too lazy to blog regularly. Why not? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Is there something better than the "Press this" bookmarklet for #wordpress to help running a #linkblog
I want a quick way to add a bit of a comment to a link and post that as its own post on a wordpress instance. (If there is a software that does that better/easier I am willing to consider) -
