  • Fixing my RSS feeds

    This has been a long time coming: I am currently making my RSS feed output validate as much as possible. So far, I have fixed my website’s and my social post archive’s RSS feed output, and now I am looking at the RSS this account, codeandcanvas, puts out. And I think I need to output…

  • The good thing about losing track of a book is that you can then go and look for it

    Eventually, you will find the book you were originally looking for, but you will also find other books you have forgotten about as well. I’ll be in my library today. Quelle: Original auf Code & Canvas

  • Current study stack: Illustration

    In order to recap my studies, I am starting with my Illustration classes. I am not half as secure in my skills as I want to be, so I am paying my debt to a future me starting today. Trying to figure out how to list them. I hope this is readable. Albers, Josef. 2013.…

  • I have a problem with AI, and you might have it, too

    What a title, eh? Initially, this was supposed to be a short essay for my Gemini capsule (which has nothing to do with the product Gemini, which is, afaik, an LLM), but then I thought, well, why not write this on my after-hours website on tumblr (I need to create a sort of after-hours schedule…

  • I used to call myself a Grafikdesigner, which is German for graphic designer

    Then, when my alma mater changed the name of my degree program from Bachelorstudiengang Grafikdesign to Bachelorstudiengang Kommunikationsdesign, I went through something of a professional identity crisis.

  • You wanna go outside the central finite curve?

    Since I do not want to write the same two lists over and over again, the kind people behind the Firefox browser extensions LeechBlock and uBlacklist made it so that you can use an url for their list of filtered websites. I am someone who struggles with social media websites, their use, and their presence…

  • From my notes: research on self-directedness, social fatigue, value incongruence, and social media

    I have been recently figuring out what exactly has been exhausting me outside of work, and came across several depleting effects. Cloninger, Svrakic & Przybeck (1993) — Psychobiological model of temperament and character. Evidence: The model distinguishes Self-Directedness, Cooperativeness, and Self-Transcendence as separate character dimensions. Self-Directedness concerns purposeful, responsible, goal-directed regulation of behavior; Cooperativeness concerns…

  • Spending the day in my library

    By this point, my library takes up most of the space I have. I am looking forward to applying a new category of books to my Zotero library, an old handheld device serving as an interface for curation. I think I will spend the day going through my library like this, finding art books, books…
