Man, I like the idea of having the images on my site be lazy loaded, but I don’t like the idea of depending on JavaScript for it, or any of the ways to fall back at the moment if someone chooses (because of browser choices, privacy concerns, or what-have-them) to disable JavaScript.
After some tidying I’ve finished merging ‘flights’ into my ‘master’ branch, thus finishing an ability to post Flights from my website. While the initial presentation of data is sparse, this lays the groundwork to owning my flight data instead of relying on a third service to store and present it.
MyFlightradar24 is the only silo–if it can be counted as one–that I consistently use. Its presentation of my flight data is wonderful, but I feel like I could do it myself on my own site. Today, I’ve opened up my flights branch so I can finally sort out what I need to make this happen!
It’s almost been a week and I still get a Headache-Fever-Pain Triple Whammy. Thankfully it’s not like I can’t get anything done or work on things, but it makes focus so difficult. I cannot wait to actually feel normal again.
