Happy Saturday folks. I just spent an hour or two playing "Avowed" (great game) and eventually need to get off my butt and start some bread I want to bake today, so I thought I’d put it off a few minutes more with a quick blog post. As always, these links are meant to be informative, helpful, and fun, so I hope they brighten your day. Date Formatting in JavaScript (Again) Date formatting in JavaScript, or, well, any language, feels like a topic that just keeps coming up. When I saw this link I initially didn’t bother clicking, assuming it was about the Intl spec. However, it instead talks about toLocaleDateString and toLocaleTimeString, both of which I’m sure I’ve... more →

Happy Link Day… oh wait, that isn’t a thing? Well, let’s pretend it is. Those of us in Louisiana are in Mardi Gras season with the holiday itself coming up on March 4th. If the weather holds out, we’ll be outside catching beads and listening to marching bands. It can be a lot of fun if it doesn’t get rained out. It’s also a great chance to eat some really bad (for you but yummy) food. I’ll share a pic or two on the next edition of this post. Ok, on with the links! Introducing AX (Agent Experience) Mathias Biilmann (CEO at Netlify, they host this blog), wrote up an introduction to the idea of AX, or "agent experience". His post describes AX as... more →

In my last Links For You post, there was snow outside from a completely unusual snow storm down here in Louisiana. Two weeks later, my AC is running and I’m near back to wearing shorts again. Sigh. I’ve said it before and will say it again, I cannot wait to get out of the south. With those complaints out of the way, let’s get to the links! Python Tips As I’ve made it a mission this year to get Somewhat Good at Python, I’ve been keeping my eyes open for good Python tips and tutorials. I’ve subscribed to, and recommend, the Python Weekly newsletter, where I found this great video embedded below. ArjanCodes covers ten good tips for new Python developers, and I’m... more →

Welcome to the first Links For You of 2025. I’m currently writing this from, I kid you not, the Danube in Austria. My wife and I are a bit over halfway through a European vacation (one we planned before Adobe decided to give me an early Christmas gift of a layoff). So far, it’s been absolutely glorious, and I plan on writing about the experience later this month. On with the links! CSS Light and Dark Themes Made Easy First up is the wonderfully named, "Come to the light-dark() Side", by Sara Joy. This looks at how native CSS can make light and dark themes incredibly easy to implement. I had no clue it was so easy to implement in CSS, but as I’ve said before, CSS has... more →

Welcome to the last Links For You for 2024. Believe it or not, I started this series way back in April of 2022, and I don’t know about you, but it’s been one of my favorite features of my blog. I love sharing cool links (and music videos!) with readers, and I hope yall have enjoyed it as well. This is my second to last post for the year so there’s still a bit more content coming, but for now, let’s get into the cool stuff! An Alpine.js Bluesky RSS Reader Folks know I love Alpine.js, and this first post is a great example of why. Andy Jarrett demonstrates how he built a RSS reader of his Bluesky profile using Alpine.js. It’s relatively simple to do so, and one of... more →

Good morning folks, as I shared yesterday, this week has been a bit rough as I found out my job was eliminated at Adobe, but the outpouring of support, and links to jobs, has been overwhelming. You people are pretty darn good, you know what? I’m confident I’m going to be able to land a good job, but at the same time, it’s going to be a heck of a lot less stressful once I actually do. On top of that, I’ve got a head cold, which is annoying af as the kids say, but, I’m alive, surrounded by people who love me, well fed and warm, so all things considered, I’m pretty dang lucky. Let’s get to the link. AI in the Browser – A Playlist A month or so ago,... more →
