Latest developer log entries
Full list: /devlog
  • 2026jan14
    • Launch KTWP Bot Bait helper plugin to keep certain category off Google
  • 2026jan13
    • At some time in the past I turned off all a bunch of IndieWeb-related features such as h-feed microformat tagging. Just turned them back on.
  • 2026jan3
    • Refactor when setupDraggables in Draggable Elements runs so it waits until page is fully loaded
    • Lots of revisions to the basic theme .min.js to optimize. Had to undefer that to get the sticky header to render right.
  • 2026jan2
    • Rolled back draggableElements again to before gemini's anti-thrashing refactor, and move element position calculations to mouse entry rather than when script first runs
    • Add metainfo tags so can style links that don't work now that I removed A tags from parent theme CSS
    • Add .latestposts_a{color:rgb(48, 55, 62);} to theme styles, which is needed now that I removed some parent theme A selectors
    • Fix draggale elements - hard-coding static elements to position:relative was not accounting for positioning CSS that loaded later.
    • Many updates to custom.js (finished as of this note.) Original version saved in admin/backups folder on disk.
    • Move animation: animateGlow in draggableelements to a :hover selector, since it can't be composited.
    • Improved image handline by removing imagesLoaded.js dependency in custom.js
    • Replace sinatraHoverSliderMK(el) in custom.js. It was iterating entire hero every time the mouse hovered over a new panel.
    • Stop deferring jquery in theme additions, seems to cause occasional problems, plus an AI told me never to do it, which means, there may be a small chance I should never do it.
    • Make 1 iframe intersectionobserver for whole page in custom.js
    • Add parent theme -min js to deferred scripts in mk theme additions
  • 2026jan1
    • Note- KTWP Editor File Manager file renaming has been inserting underscores lately. First noticed a few days ago, not sure when it started.
    • Create new non-jquery page adjuster
    • removed activation hooks to create js and css from KTWP Page Appearance Adjuster, obsolete.
    • Fix github sync so forcing push works
    • Add array('in_footer' => true,'strategy' => 'defer') to script enqueuing in ktwp plugins
    • Add $firstHeroImageFlag to hero code and prevent first image from being lazy loaded... defeats purpose of preloading it.
    • Roll back draggable elements js to before stupid AI layout thrashing "fix" that randomly broke things.
    • Get rid of animation on gearpulse in page appearange adjuster, causes compositing issue

Mike Kupietz, your humble proprietor, serving these electrons to you steaming hot from a server in the heart of San Francisco, right where the American dream rises out of the Pacific as a moist, gray fog and ascends to Heaven in a cacophony of poetry, acid rock and sarcasm.

Help

For confused first-time visitors and other people still acclimating, here is a description of these little tabs to the left, as well as some other features of the site.

Open "Expert Mode" CLI Navigation - this give you the option to switch your browser's display to an old-fashioned terminal mode where you may browse this site, view pages and images by typing text commands. Just like how we used to browse the web back in 1978!

Open Visual Settings - This gives you controls to customize the visual display of this website to your liking: turn up or down the brightness, contrast, color temperature, hue, saturation, dark mode, and earthquake. Settings are saved per browser tab, so they will be remembered for your whole visit.

Open My Eyes - Have you ever been engrossed in your work, when you suddenly realize someone is staring at your screen, watching everything you do over your shoulder? If not, this simulates the experience.

Open Help - This help popup, silly! You just clicked it! Do you not remember?


New - Draggable elements! Several elements on this website, including these tabs, this popup message, and the "Hire Mike" badge in the lower right, can be dragged around with your mouse, to avoid them blocking content. Positions are remembered per tab, so as you navigate around the site, they will stay in the same place for your whole visit.

Enjoy!

CLI Website Navigation

Are you sure you want to switch to viewing this website in the "expert mode" command-line interface?

This will switch to a terminal emulator, load this page, and allow you to browse this website and view its contents by typing text commands.

Plus there might be, y'know, some fun stuff hidden in there. Just for geeks.

Let's go!
