  1. Ideas for improving metaformats parsing

    Why metaformats I first became interested in the metaformats spec when I wanted to generate link previews on my site when bookmarking or replying to pages. Metaformats is an extension to the microformats2 parsing algorithm that provides a fallback for sites that don’t support microformats. It works by translating the...

  3. My favorite part of Apple Music’s “Spotify Wrapped” clone is seeing where the app broke and logged 100+ plays on something I only played a few times. Last year was a Charlie Brown Christmas with an honorable mention of 60 plays of The Prince of Egypt. This year was Pixar’s...

  5. I recently added a micropub server to make it easier to post to my site. Sorry if that means more dumb words. I’m hoping it encourages me to post more pictures though.

  9. TIL that AM and PM (short for the latin ante meridiem and post meridiem) are styled lowercase with a preceding space and punctuation in most style guides “10:10 a.m.” or “6 p.m.” rather than uppercase. Or if the style is upper case, small caps are recommended with no punctuation such...

  10. Pumpkin Bread

    This was a recipe clipping saved by the Ciccarello family. I’ve halved the ingredients to one loaf of bread but it’s not a bad idea to double it if you want some to share. We added chocolate chips which does increase the volume so watch how much you fill the...

  13. Stuffed Pepper Soup

    We originally got this recipe from Recipes that Crock. It can be done in a slow cooker but we like to make this in the pressure cooker. I’d also recommend keeping some extra beef broth on hand in case you want it soupier after the rice absorbs the liquid. A...

  15. I just merged a big update to the site which adds dark mode and some other style changes. The site now uses system fonts and doesn’t include the material css library which should reduce the size of the initial page load. The main goal was simplifying the codebase but css...
