Come Build/Play a Game with Me Next Week

Next week I'll be hosting my second episode of the <Code><Br> show, "Shall we play a game?" In this session I'm going to talk about, and build, a simple web-based game. An hour is not a lot of time to do this so it will be a bit of a race, but I think this could be really fun. Check it out next Tuesday at 12PM CST.

Happy Super Bowl Day for those who celebrate, oh wait, sorry, I mean "The Big Game". I'm looking forward to both the game and the commercials this year, and I managed to avoid every single commercial preview so they should all be new to me. This week was incredibly hard at work (with the caveat that I sit on my rear, in a home office, and I'm very lucky), but difficult in that way like when you exercise and muscles you haven't used in a while hurt. I complained to my wife more than once, but also recognized I was improving some skills that needed it.

Using the Bluesky API

Social media has always been... addicting and kinda gross/dangerous/etc, but lately, I'm not even sure what to think anymore. As I mentioned in my first episode of <Code><Br>, I segregate all of my social media to the Firefox browser so it doesn't get in the way of my regular, work/research/etc browsing. I currently have tabs open for Threads, Bluesky, Mastodon, and, yeah, Twitter still.

<Code><Br> - First Episode

Just a quick note to share that today I did my first episode of the <Code><Br> show. I had a great audience with some great questions and comments. My next show will be in two weeks and I hope to see you there!

Good morning, friends. I'm enjoying a lazy Sunday morning before I head out to my first (in-person) conference of the year, THAT Conference Texas. I'll be speaking on web components and can't wait to see the other great sessions as well. If you're a reader and will be there, please tell me hello!
