It's been a shit of a week.
Monday - fever and terrible sleep
Tuesday - resting and terrible sleep
Wednesday - morning light work, afternoon yeah-nah
Thursday - morning meeting, afternoon fell asleep at 1 and woke at 7
Friday - migraine 7 am - 1 pm
Next week better be pleasant, I've earned it.
I've had a run of weeks of feeling really good. So today my body smacked me with a mid morning energy fade
😞 I basically went to bed for the rest of the day and am now having my once every 6 months regret that I don't have a live in partner to cook dinner for me.
Obviously my post exertion malaise / long COVID isn't done with me

@jwz@mastodon.social omg that trailer feels so sad.
I couldn't even bring myself to sully the altered carbon book with the TV show. guess I'm going to be bringing the same energy to neuromancer
It's a shameful admission that I use Google docs for collaboration on projects. However I need to do so to then complain about how Googles background grammar/spelling checker has suddenly decided that Aucklander is not a word.
It has offered me the following substitutions
Aucklandlander
Zealander (the word new is no where near it)
Auckland

@rmi@cloudisland.nz @stephen@ephemera.vital.org.nz absolutely. I felt like I was talking over a gulf of understanding and I would rate myself as only tech competent adjacent, which, evidently, in board culture, is more than the others have.

@exlibrarykris@cloudisland.nz sadly they're using the wellington library website as an example of why their decision to DIY/vibe code it is smart economics

@stephen@ephemera.vital.org.nz oh absolutely the ludic article, so good. Yesterday Ishared it with some web developer friends who are predicting their job will pivot from build me new website, to fix absolute fuck up I did by building with gen ai.

Also, this is why I'm on mastodon, so I can whine about things like this confident that almost no one else in the arts is following me (except maybe @exlibrarykris@cloudisland.nz )

Update, all my other board members thought that using Claude to design your front end (with no previous web design experience) was a great idea and that the site we were shown looked good. (With the caveat that it would be nice if it worked for mobiles).
Is this the New Zealand reluctance to find fault? A lack of visual literacy? Sheer stupidity?
And now one of them is questioning if we should even give design/user testing/ user experience feedback because website builds is operational.

@rmi@cloudisland.nz oh bollox. I'd been happily assuming my affinity programs were free of that shit.
Tfw someone proudly shows you the organisation website they've redesigned using Claude and there are so many problems with it from ux, accessibility, and design/information ordering to is the code at all secure and stable that you don't know where to start.
There are reasons you employ professional web designers for your primary Comms platform. Soooo many reasons.
It's not even mobile friendly 😭😭😭😭

@rmi@cloudisland.nz I had a total huh moment, as I ran the sentence with Henri Lefebvre, notable urbanist in mind.
