I can’t help but wonder if someone’s bonus is in jeopardy this month, because that’s the only thing I can think of that would lead to the gross double banners on The Washington Post’s homepage. CC: @Chronotope@indieweb.social

I don’t see why people think the Vision Pro is expensive. It’s really only one month’s rent.

The whole reddit saga is a great reminder to always be mindful of whether and how much whatever company’s interest aligns with your own, whether said company is your employer, a service you use, or a purveyor you buy from.
It delights me how @mimestream@mastodon.social also launches an outgoing message through the top of the display when sent, even more-so that it does so with an equally dramatic sound effect.
How badly did I break this?
While working on my patch to support image alt text, I relied heavily on Nova’s integration with PHP’s XDebug to help with my unfamiliarity with PHP and WordPress. It reminded me of how crazy it seems whenever I meet developers who don’t take the time to figure out debugging.
Adding Alternative Text to Images Sent to Mastodon
I added support for alt text in my hack to autopost to Mastodon. MarsEdit doesn’t support saving alt texts into the corresponding WordPress field due to some API limitation, so I had to get them from the img tags directly. The whole effort involves several things I am not super familiar with. In addition to PHP and WordPress, I had to relearn XPath to query the markup for img alt attributes and then modify the raw form data to include them as descriptions. Not fun, but worth it.
