Not at all. How else would I know about the tulip bubble of 1637?

@nathanwrigley.com and @bell.bz together. What's not to like?

I say NO to AI. Certainly the lies, exploitation and potential enshittification that fuels it.

Trap or Trade-off? What small businesses should know before getting a website How businesses might get a website that avoids the lock-in and quality trade-offs that come with no-code platforms.

@nathanwrigley.com is brilliant at editing out our tech failures, but this time we let the swearing go. It's probably the best bit.

Enshittification: Why We Need Independent Websites How platforms lure us in, lock us down and extract value and how small, independent websites can push back.

My New Year's resolution: promote the liberating power of the "dumb" web (HTML and CSS).

Yep!
