Design Beyond Barriers
https://designbeyondbarriers.com/

I don’t agree with this quote, as someone who uses code as a design tool, but …

But readable type, intuitive navigation, and smart color choices start in design, not in code. Developers build the product, but we set the foundation. It’s time to own that responsibility.

… but I really like the website and I think it is a great idea for a book.

The Server Doesn't Render Anything
https://unplannedobsolescence.com/blog/the-server-doesnt-render/

Good article that explains that server side rendering does not exist.

If you love React and love using it—by all means. Just don’t mistake the complexity of React Server Components for complexity that is inherent to the web platform.

The role of the University is to resist AI
https://danmcquillan.org/cpct_seminar.html

Excellent lecture about resisting AI.

I want to conclude by emphasising that the proposition that the role of the university is to resist AI is not simply a defence of pedagogy, but an affirmation of the social importance of imagination.

Why and How to Write Minimal and Valid HTML, a Link Guide · Jens Oliver Meiert
https://meiert.com/blog/minimal-and-valid-html/

A list of resources about minimal(ist) HTML. As with all minimalism, in a way it continues removing stuff until it is broken, and then it stops, which is one step too late. It should stop before it is broken. In this case: keep HTML readable for humans when viewing source.
