I've redesigned my artist website completely. Big changes. It's now all a bit...weird. So I'm happy with that.
All javascript has been removed and there are no more embedded videos or other media. I've also tried to make sure it's as accessible as possible; all images now have descriptions right back through a 15-year archive.
Comments welcome, especially if you notice something broken or some accessibility problems.

Shane Finan assembles technology into art, collaborating with fungi, plants, humans and animals.shanefinan.org
@jrp yes thanks. My site was always plain HTML but often included borrowed elements and used Javascript for visual quirkiness. Reducing bloat code was the main motivation, along with removing all trackers to make it more privacy/ethically sound. I never needed these but they were built into embedded videos or other borrowed tools; I decided on a big rebuild to go back into the archive of 15 years.
As my art is all about tech and environment, I figured it made sense to have my site reflect that.

“countless professors, when asked to perform a peer review for a journal, fob the work off to their hapless grad students”
Having been through the fact-checking process at the Times repeatedly, I can’t understand how nonsense like this gets through.
I can only speculate the perhaps these days their fact-checkers fob the work off to hapless interns.
To be fair to Seife, it *is* getting harder and harder to find sufficiently qualified scholars who are willing to review scholarly papers, and as this becomes more difficult the quality of peer review is probably declining.
I'm just tired of the Times misrepresenting the peer review process.

Steam Deck officially hits over 13,000 games Playable and Verified

"That then, is the simple reason why discovering drugs is hard; because we are dealing with a biological system that still escapes our rational understanding and because we are trying to engineer a molecule that perturbs this incompletely understood system, and that too while being forced to satisfy multiple constraints. It's like being asked to find a black cat in the dark, with the added constraint that one of your feet is bound to the top of your head, and you only get three tries."
