  9. Petrapixel is building an Indie Web Database. “The Indie Web Database is a collection of all things indie web. For now, we have a collection of websites, webrings and cliques.

But the moment someone opens it, they’re often on their own. Students don’t know where to begin. Clients are worried they’ll break something. Plugin users miss the feature you wanted them to see.

  17. For my volunteer job, I pushed the staging site out to production (i.e., the live website) a little while ago, checked all the pages, deleted the staging site, and downgraded our hosting plan (since we no longer need the staging feature). Hilariously, that last item was the hardest part. 😅

  25. Just one of the many dangerous things the T...p regime is doing quietly in the background while distracting us with ballrooms and reflecting ponds.

  28. In clear violation of the #PrivacyAct of 1974 & the E-Government Act of 2002: #WhiteHouse "now operates four public #federal #websites: ndstudio.gov, trumprx.gov, realfood.gov & trumpaccounts.gov."
    All are running illegal #surveillance #software, "none carries the public filings [that] federal #PrivacyLaw requires."
    In violation of the Help #America #Vote Act of 2002, *vote.org is being tracked* by the President, capturing all #VoterRegistration activity.
