Liked Useless Build: Pug in a Rug by Tim Builds Useless Websites (youtube.com)
A website where you can pay your dues to the pug in a rug, by honoring it with your eyes. - The website https://puginarug.com​ - The code https://github.com/tholman/puginarug

Pretty delightful video showing how the The Pug In A Rug Site/page was made. Simple enough for me to learn from.

I usually do not use YouTube videos for learning preferring text or text and image. This video hit the sweet spot for me.

It also felt like Tim was working it out as he went along, developing ideas and fixing mistakes.

Must take better notes.

When I see something I like, or think will be useful, I do one of several things:
– Know I’ll remember
– Add it to pinboard
– Send it to drafts
– Post to my blog
– Favourite it with in ever system I am in.

Yet again this has failed me.


Just found this wee guy on a shelf. New battery & it works. Mounts on Mac too via usb. Bought in 2005. Some old #TeachMeet recordings. I’ve still to find out the button presses that make it record. Back in 2005 I noted “Interface is pretty poor compared to an iPod”.

Bookmarked Images from HTML, CSS, and Shortcuts - All this (leancrew.com)
The important thing I’ve learned here has nothing to do with Wordle or WordleBot. It’s that I can use Shortcuts to make an image out any HTML/CSS. As long as I can stuff it into a data URL, I can make an image from it. Could be very useful.

I don’t use shortcuts all that much, but this looks interesting.
