The archive of what I posted on Twitter, which I now self host due to a lack of trust in Twitter and some other reasons.

I'll soon begin refelcting all my Mastodon posts here too. I'm happier self-hosting or maintaining an archive of my content on URLs that I can own.

There are tools to help you do this too. Such as this one from the makers of Eleventy.

@ethaneisenhard @Netlify We applaud your taste (& look forward to seeing the newly decked office!)

Apologies, we were a little overwhelmed by the wonderful response to this, so have a bit of a backlog. We've got a new supplier to help get all the stickers out, so hopefully we'll get them to you soon. ❤️

@Skeeec A/B tests are logic performed at ADN to chose which branch to send requests to. Branch builds are all served from the ADN too.

All traffic is served directly from the ADN (given some priming of the very first requests after a deploy) so you can consider everything to be as prod.

@kentcdodds @brunowinck @jlengstorf @Netlify @gatsbyjs Related and maybe of interest:

If your build is hefty due to doing lots of image transformations, having Netlify transform and cache these on-the-fly should really speed up your build times.

Good for responsive images:

@Skeeec Netlify == Build automation && CI/CD && ADN && Lambda pipeline && triggers && notifications && some helpful APIs... 😎

...so our ADN is a big part of what we do. But not quite sure I understand what you are asking. Which bit, technically?

@Skeeec Ah. Sorry. Like a CDN, but with more 🧠

@Skeeec Doing it this way ensures that site visitors have affinity with the same branch and get a consistent experience.

You can also set the cookie to have the name of a branch in the split test to force people to a specific branch (as per that video in my previous)

Phil Hawksworth @philhawksworth • March 8th 2019 replying to this from @Skeeec
@Skeeec Sure.

If your site has an active split test, as a user hits our ADN, the ADN will set a cookie in the client called nf_ab which has a random number between 0 & 1. This cookie will tell our ADN how send traffic between the branches in the A/B test.

My job is mostly shouting about features developed, managed, documented, supported, and maintained by many smart and inspiring women.

On this International Women's Day, I'm thankful for my wonderful colleagues who teach me so much.

@luke_bennett_ @Netlify Sorry for the delay, Luke. We’ve been delighted with, but swamped by the response, so our sticker dispatching has quite a backlog.

We’re setting up a new provider for our swag to make this all go much faster, so hopefully we’ll get you sorted soon.

Thanks so much for the help!

@davatron5000 If you like Jekyll, you'll love @eleven_ty. You can stick with Liquid (if you want) and go from zero to dev pipeline and site in remarkably few steps.

That @zachleat chap has done amazing work.

What’s that law about javascript libraries? Something, something, noun, something... it already exists?

@HenrikJoreteg @Netlify Sadly, that’s not currently possible.

I’ve heard the request a few times lately though, and we are tracking it as a potential feature internally. I can’t promise if/when that might happen.

...but I agree that it would be handy at times.

In fairness there's only one of them that does that... and that's me.

I need one of those signs that says " *16* days since our last typo incident"

Nestling in to the moist and steaming armpit of a fellow commuter on this crowded commuter train at commuter time has made me acutely aware of how much of a spoiled brat a year of working from home has made me.

20 years of commuter muscle seems to have atrophied.
