Wasteful

Some Limitations of Gemini

For several days now I have been playing with Gemini, Google Takeout files and Flick Export files, first to re.marry json data to relevant exif fields, and then to create a folder structure library by year, month and day.

The Wastefulness of Mobile First Design

For a few years now I have noticed a worrying trend, one that sees content become so sparse on a web page that you see one tweet or facebook post per screen height. Before mobile first design, and the proliferation of React websites you would find pages that had twenty to thirty tweets per page.
