The last seven days have been… difficult. I don’t think I need to go into why (even for my non-American readers), but I am doing my best, as are a lot of people, to take things day by day. Honestly, as a white hetero man, I’m not so much worried for myself, but I’m deeply concerned about my family and friends who are LGBTQ+ and other minorities. I don’t talk a lot about my children here as I want to ensure their privacy is maintained, but seven of my kids are adopted and Asian and my usual worry for them has risen quite a bit. Normally, my links here are almost always tech-related, but today I’m going to do something different. The links below are resources... more →

Happy Sunday and Happy Saints Are Winning As I Write this day. Before I get into the links, some administrative. At the bottom of my posts, I’ve got share links. A few days ago I removed the share to Twitter link as I’ve gradually removed myself from that platform. I was on there a few weeks ago desperate for some technical help, but in general, I’m pretty much done with the platform. I’ve added a share to Bluesky (where you can find me as @raymondcamden.com) but unfortunately, it isn’t quite working yet. I followed the directions for ‘Action Intent Links’, but even the example on their docs isn’t working. I’m going to keep the share link... more →

Hello dear readers. I wish I could say I’ve got a restful weekend in front of me, but today we’re driving to New Orleans to pick up our eldest who has been in Germany for a year, and tomorrow we fly to Las Vegas for the Adobe ColdFusion Summit. Both are things I’m quite happy about, but it’s going to be a lot. I’m currently sitting, drinking coffee, and watching "Grey’s Anatomy", a good guilty-pleasure show. Before we get into the links, a few quick reminders. If you aren’t already a subscriber, use the form below or here to sign up for my mailing list. Right now it’s just tied to my posts and as a subscriber, you’ll get an email... more →

Happy Half Way Through September… which isn’t a thing I guess, but, I’m just in awe at how much faster time goes in the fall compared to summer. With the kids in school, and activities, time just seems to fly by. In roughly two weeks I’ll (and my wife) will be in Vegas for the Adobe ColdFusion Summit. If you’ll be there too be sure to say hi. Before then I’ll be speaking online at the JavaScript Global Summit next week. All of these upcoming conferences is just enough to make me forget I got a rejection today. 😉 Lets focus on the positive, right, like some fun links for your enjoyment!

For my American readers, I hope you are able to enjoy a relaxing three day weekend. I’ve got big plans to do absolutely nothing and do quite a bit of it. My September is going to be busy so I’d like to try my best not to think about that for the next few days. Let’s get to the links! One Million Checkboxes – You Won’t Believe This… I use a note app to keep track of the links I want to share in these posts and generally, I share in a FIFO manner – the oldest added links first. But this… this link comes from a post shared recently on Mastodon and frankly was way too cool to put off. I don’t even want to tell you about this link, I just want... more →

Woot, welcome to football season! Ok, preseason, but I am beyond excited to watch my Saints play later today and, hopefully, look halfway decent. My wife and I are both big football fans and the start of the season is always a happy occasion. This past week I traveled to Atlanta to give a lab on Adobe’s Firefly Services APIs which went well, and I get to do it again next week in New York City. I hope your week goes well, and here are some interesting links for you to enjoy. Migrating from Netlify to Cloudflare In this post, Sia Karamalegos discusses how she migrated her site from Netlify to Cloudflare. This was done primarily due to Cloudflare releasing a new service to block AI crawlers,... more →

The past few weeks have been a bit crazy, although mostly crazy good. Since the last one of these posts, my family and I went on vacation in San Antonio for a few days, and currently, my wife and I are in New Orleans for a short break. Last night we went to the Postmodern Jukebox concert which was easily one of the most fun concerts I’ve been to. I’ll share one of their clips at the end, but let me just say that they were a real treat live. CSV for Eleventy First up is a great example of why I love Eleventy – its flexibility. This post, "Eleventy – Add CSV data file support" describes how you can use CSV files in Eleventy to drive your content. Eleventy’s... more →
