Really excited to try out Mimic 3 Text To Speech engine by @mycroft_ai when it comes out here soon. Looking forward to seeing how much of an improvement it is and hopefully try it offline too.

Trying to imagine what my next job would be thinking about the parts of my current job that I enjoy. I really love open standards and #webcomponents. Lately I've been digging in more to #ally standards as well. In the past my work has focused on bundling, developer tooling, and trying to improve CI processes.

I think if I was to try and sum up my work it's that I like enabling teams and individuals to go faster.

@aurynn @atomicpoet services are going to go after broader market share so the amount of harassment they are willing to accept will always be more than what a community would accept. They won't care if users fall thru the cracks as long as they create enough new users to replace them.

@aral is there a different analytics platform that offers everything that businesses need to build a sales funnel? Does Plausible do this? (Are they on the Fediverse?)

I have no clue what this entails bc I don't do any sort of "business intelligence" work but this seems to be an essential feature to convince ppl to take a jump.

Really wanna replay Persona 3 again on handheld. When's it coming to Switch

@cassidyjames we paid an astoundingly stupid amount of money for what is essentially a plastic shot glass for our daughter to learn to drink from (at least to my sensibilities). If you've got them lying around already that's a great way to reuse something that would otherwise go in the trash!

I love #webcomponents but the serialization of a boolean to a string always throws me. Anyone have a good way of handling this that they really like and want to share?

Been working on a component library with Storybook JS. Are there any best practices for adding a story around typography? I want to display font and headings to make sure they're correct but this seems harder to accomplish than expected....

@aurynn aren't you a mod?

Those of you who use a cross posting service with Birdsite, which one do you use and why?

So far my biggest gripe about Tusky and it's forks are that I can only have 5 tabs at a time. What's with this restriction? It seems arbitrary. How am I supposed to keep lists of topics and ppl? Maybe the official Mastodon app is different 🤔

@dubiousdisc took this plunge today, so far so good! Nice sane defaults.

I'm still a pretty basic user, but I would like to see how well I could replace VSCode with Nvim ultimately. VSCode is just straight murder on a battery. If you're a #vim or #neovim user tips and tricks appreciated!!

Fiddling around with Neovim again today.

Because why work on your side projects when you could work on the tooling _underneath_ your side projects.

@bogpunk @cassidyjames 💯 this. The real value in Twitter is in customizing your feed, but thats even more necessary in the fediverse. Also since UX and discoverability need work never assume it's been known. Tips and tricks appreciated.

Not many ppl on the fediverse talking about #webcomponents it looks like. I'll have to start sharing about them here as well as on the musksite
