If it is worth keeping, save it in Markdown - Piotr Migdał

p.migdal.pl/blog/2025/02/markdown-saves#user-content-fnref-pinboard

Why and how to preserve digital content in plaintext format for long-term accessibility and reuse

The author actually doesn't think Markdown is the only correct storage format. All lightweight markup languages will do. They just use Markdown themselves. It's good they allow Mycomarkup, I'd've written a remarque here otherwise.

I myself am not sure if it's the right way. Maybe the websites should be preserved closer to the way they were made? I'll now archive this page, in HTML.

The faded world: my experience with cataract

journal.paoloamoroso.com/the-faded-world-my-experience-with-cataract

This is a personal story I hope will give web designers and user interface experts some food for thought: my experience with reading digital screens with eyesight degraded by cataract. There may be more users with suboptimal vision than usually thought.

I always preferred the light theme and never figured what's the fuss with the dark theme. Until cataract came.

Center a Div

www.joshwcomeau.com/css/center-a-div

Back in the day, centering an element was one of the trickiest things in CSS. As the language has evolved, we’ve been given lots of new tools we can use… But how do we pick the best option? When do we use Flexbox, or CSS Grid, or something else? Let's dig into it.

Don't Publish and Pray | <(^.^)> tsuki

tsk.bearblog.dev/dont-publish-and-pray

Don't publish a blog post, without any marketing, and expect people to magically discover it.

It doesn't work like that. I'm sorry.

At the very least, you can promote your blog to social media platforms like Reddit, Twitter or Hacker News.
