FeedCity

I spent the weekend at IndieWebCamp Nuremberg, the fifth edition in this city — two days at the tollwerkstatt as part of Nürnberg Digital Festival, in good company with a bunch of IndieWeb folks.

The highlight of Day 1 was René's session, “Make the web great again.” It gloriously derailed into everyone trying to out-do each other with the silliest, most gleefully useless links the web has to offer. I hope there is a blog post soon, but for a starter: esd-systeme.de. A reminder that the indie web isn't only specs and Webmentions — it's also delight.

Day 2 was Create Day and I built a Web Feed Roll for this site. It deserves its own post, so more on that very soon.

Everything is documented in detail on the IndieWeb Wiki: indieweb.org/2026/Nuremberg

Read about my what is going on currently in Naty’s life, in a zoomed-out kind of way. I plan to update mine only once in a while.

Inspired by Rachel Roddy over on IG and the gorgeous apricots currently at the greengrocers, a small batch of preserve was on the menu this morning. Apricot preserve, not jam, because it contains only 25% sugar. Rachel pointed out that one can buy packets of pectin designed...

There is a strand of thought out there that believes any and all legislation to do with seeds is evil and unnecesary. It is wrong. Here’s why. This is not the sunflower we were looking for This spring, The Squeeze, who delights in dark-coloured sunflowers, bought a packet o...

I love Daniel Eatock’s website! The way he publishes his art and ideas for decades on this beautifully simple website is a tremendous accomplishment. And very inspiring. That is why I wrote a page on my digital garden about it. Already part three of a series on inspiring websites.

Tonight I went with friends to see Mark Thomas, practice his Edinburgh Fringe set. The venue, The Museum of Comedy, was very intimate and based in the Crypt of St George’s church. There were less than 100 seats, it was nice and cool which was awesome because heat outside was...

When I announced that I was open-sourcing a quiz maker earlier this week, I noted that there were several limitations to what I had built. Most importantly, my quiz maker was a Python script, which substantially limits how many people can use it. After writing the blog post...

Content warning: This poem is about the ongoing heat in Europe. I strike an optimistic tone toward the end, but if you would prefer not to read about the heat, I offer you one of the Scottish poems I have written in stead.

Nature’s weary tears fill the air;
invisible, warming.
Relentlessly, days proceed.

Hours pass; Celsius rises.
Midnights: warm like day.
We stay inside.
Blinds closed, water glasses full, cookers off.

Flowers bloom early.
Eyelids weigh; we yearn
for rest that does not come.

Heat ravages the continent.
London is Rome.

Roads reduce to liquid, power lines sag:
infrastructure is under stress.
Headlines depress.

Hope: We come together, reaching
with open eyes.
Her resiliency:
Our future?

Had a lot of fun yesterday at #loscon26, wearing the #CoderDojo hat. I had the chance to present @coderdojonbg and support the participants in taking their first steps into hardware programming — which was also slightly outside my comfort zone. The community was really cool and pleasant — thanks @simondueckert for the opportunity. Wishing all participants much more fun for the second day today!

Attending my first Trading Card Show and thinking about selling my vintage Pokémon card collection, and the usual link dump.

Yesterday was the hottest Broken Arrow Skyrace 23k of the four I have run. And the hardest. Sometimes you give it your all and your all is not quite enough. Made it much farther than last year, under worse (hotter, dryer, dustier) conditions.It was already in the mid-70s Fahr...
