I just went down a google analytics implementation, privacy, and consent rabbit hole.

My takeaway is that a lot of the blog writing on the topic does not do a good job talking through properly setting up consent with GA.

@selfteachme Wooah I didn't realize you folks had released a hosting solution. I'm excited by that!

[Eric Howey @erchwy]

@selfteachme Looking amazing Amy! Will there be a recording we can watch?

[Eric Howey @erchwy]

@kyleshevlin Yea that is a good point. I like the idea of a /ai page for transparency. Keep up the good work!

[Eric Howey @erchwy]

@kyleshevlin Agree! And a question.

Lately I have found just dumping raw Markdown into chatgpt a helpful spellchecker/grammar checker. I usually do it right at the end of writing something.

Thoughts?

I agree with the sentiment about keeping the internet human as much as possible!

[Eric Howey @erchwy]

@studio_hungry HOLY! That is wild. And that is talent.

[Eric Howey @erchwy]

@raae @WHEEbikes Love a good bike.

Today my daughter wanted me to do her hair instead of her mom.

That feels like a big dad win!

@BHolmesDev I think I am officially old because I still don’t get the appeal of wireless headphones.

Just seems like a heck of a hassle and an easy way to lose $200.

I am very pro wired headphones.

@_baretto Descript

@jeffscottward @tailwindcss I went over to Tailwind maybe 2 years ago for basically those same reasons. Like others have said you get used to it and there are some nice things about it after a while.

But I still think having a high level grasp of vanilla CSS remains super important.

@raae I am at this stage now. Gradually growing margins and weather is turning with less to do outdoors.

So hard to resist!

Unrelated to web dev, I am really excited women are finally riding at Red Bull Rampage this year!

[Eric Howey @erchwy]

@darylginn Just used this one on a project!

[Eric Howey @erchwy]

@thedavidprice 😂 - okay fair point. I guess I always found the analogy inspiring but when broken down it is really just sad.
