bubuche87 | Hi |
rindolf | bubuche87: sup? |
bubuche87 | Nothing. And you ? |
rindolf | bubuche87: I’m rereading an old essay of mine: https://www.shlomifish.org/philosophy/philosophy/putting-all-cards-on-the-table-2013/ |

cantelope | rindolf: i was all hot and heavy to dive into some juicy philosophy, and what appeared from the link to be a firey confession. So i clicked. The first thing i notices was the site re-kajiggering several times in a spastic adaptation to my mobile device. When it finally settled down, i was staring at a choice of various "format" options, which wholly pushed my prior interest out of mind while i struggled to compute why text on a |
cantelope | webpage would need optional formats. Then as i accepted this was superfluous, i began to scroll, remembering why i was there in the first place. The next thing i saw was a licensing statement, which made me pause again, wondering if i was perhaps committing a crime by visiting the page. Of course i wasnt, but the pause from seeing legal whatnot is a common, unsuppressable reflex. So i FINALLY got to the text which, in the |
cantelope | opening thesis, not only failed to hook my interest, but proudly declared that the subject is admittedly stale, 10+ years old today |
cantelope | bruh |
cantelope | I think a total reboot of your stuff might be good for you |
cantelope | A fresh site, from scratch |
cantelope | With new content and PICTURES maybe |
cantelope | you talk about webp making your site fast but I’ll be damned it i saw any webp images |
rindolf | cantelope: I’ll reboot your ass ;] |
pulse | 👌 |

cantelope | I did read a little of it, rindolf. Enough to understand that you regret the level of success/achievement you have (not) reached to date. But here’s why: successful people make a habit of SEEKING AND DEVOURING constructive criticism, not rejecting it due to laziness |
HyperKoos | cantelope: Nice review |
pulse | HyperKoos: eventually |
rindolf | cantelope: throwing away a site I worked on for a life-time is value destruction |
