[Greg McVerry] Well on the 58th-59th day my #100daychallenge of sharing a #quote from a scholar of color comes to an end. Clashed with goal of living healthy March after I crashed at 9:00 after a workout and then Cub Scout Committee meeting.

[jgmac1106] I think you should allow yourself after the fact "catch up" posts
#
[tantek]
as long as they were somehow topical for that past day
#
[tantek]
I had to do that with several photos this past week/weekend
#
[tantek]
prioritizing living / being present over posting on a timely/daily basis is correct IMO

If I had let myself do that with my project I would not have finished it lol
#
aaronpk
but it definitely came at the expense of hiding at home for large portions of the day
#
aaronpk
I would not say I was "present" for very much of those 100 days

#
[tantek]
right, it's a trade-off
#
[tantek]
also, writing & shipping usable code and a music piece is MUCH MORE WORK than taking / posting a photo + alt text + caption/narrative (which is still non-trivial I'm finding)
#
[tantek]
the practice is making me better at quickly writing both though
#
[jgmac1106]
yeah...month of poetry just did me in...and wanted to make March healthy living....plus it was Super Tuesday...I will keep going and asterik it
#
[jgmac1106]
.....yeah I am just quoting...but finding it so beneficial to discover voicex I would never consider
#
[tantek]
seriously, try writing alt text for photos *every day*, you will get incrementally better at it until it feels pretty quick (not quite "effortless" yet)
#
aaronpk
that's a good follow up challenge to the micro.blog photo challenge!
#
[tantek]
wait, it didn't already require alt text?
#
aaronpk
The photo challenge? Not that I saw. But also I haven't actually got the pin yet because there's some other glitch somewhere
#
[jgmac1106]
I did realize...I kinda past a 1 year challenge today. I have officially lectured and taught 1 year without using ppt or slidedecks
#
[jgmac1106]
but that is more chat

what if ... what if we didn't have five different platforms that all did the same things https://twitter.com/BuzzFeedNews/status/1235249380472639489

What is Glitch?
#
Loqi
Glitch (formerly Gomix, HyperDev before that) is a tool allowing you to quickly prototype web applications in a complete IDE with built in version control, sharing, and more https://indieweb.org/Glitch

ok, I added "https://glitch.com/glimmer/post/building-your-own-website-once-and-for-all" to the "See Also" section of /Glitch https://indieweb.org/wiki/index.php?diff=68833&oldid=62594

is that a general :sigh: over life aaronpk, or a side-eye at that js;dr resource? (I put it in as a see also for the general design elements rather than as a recommendation for actual use.) 😉
#
aaronpk
Oh nice did the spam not make it to slack?
#
[chrisaldrich]
If it's life in general, I'm hoping you're doing better!
#
[chrisaldrich]
Nope, apparently no spam made it to slack, where I'm seeing/writing this...
#
[yo]
yeah nothing on this side
#
aaronpk
Good! So either someone beat me to deleting it, or Loqi caught it thanks to something I don't understand
#
aaronpk
Ah someone deleted it from slack, it's still in the logs. If Loqi caught it it also wouldn't have made it to the logs.

I deleted it

[schmarty]
Cleaning up from slack is easy but from the logs is hard
#
aaronpk
Looks like we might need to improve that process then
