Today I’ve been fixing little bugs in Micro.blog for iPhone that have been annoying me. Any glitches that you’d like to see prioritized? Let me know!

It's going to be a long summer. WIRED has some advice for being prepared.

How to Protest Safely in the Age of Surveillance:

"The nation, fractured by war, disease, and famine, has seen more than 6 million people die since the mid-1990s, making the conflict the deadliest since World War II. But, in recent years, the death and destruction have been aided by

I’m sure this acquisition of Clay was in the works for a while, but the timing feels wrong so soon after the Automattic layoffs. I’ve been mostly supportive of Matt Mullenweg and Automattic through all the drama. I’d just like to see them get back on track.

I’m going to take a break from AI-related blogging for a few months. I think the pause will do me and my readers some good. It’s too divisive an issue, and I expect in the coming years there will be a small but vocal faction that pushes back against AI more than there has be...

AV cart trailer update! Got the axle and wheels attached, just about ready to roll! The fold down feet ended up a bit taller than I wanted, so I might swap them with slightly shorter feet.

404 Media reports that the country's major airlines are selling passenger data to Customs and Border Protection and ICE.

I relaunched my website on Ghost. Here's why.

Yesterday I posted a link to my political disclaimer from 2018. Also listened to a podcast interview with Senator Gallego of Arizona who says, correctly that the Democrats have work to do with men. It's true, speaking as a man who has been voting solid Democratic since Kerry...

Today I'm going to teach WordLand how to be a linkblog. Before doing that I tried to figure out what a linkblog is. I have been using various homebrew linkblogging tools which I have shared with others, but none of them became popular products. I wrote a summary to help guide the development work I have planned.

I was lucky to grow up in NYC, and had to commute from Queens to the Bronx every day to go to school. Some days I took the Q44 bus over the Whitestone Bridge, and other days I took the Q17 to the 7 train through Manhattan, and then the 4 or D trains up to 205th St in the Bron...

Understanding the parity principle in accessibility, using rick-rolling as an example.

I was wondering if Saturday's military parade in Washington was going to be the rollout of the Trump junta, and if that meant the president would appear in military garb, perhaps subdued so next year's parade they can add more features. So I asked ChatGPT to help. President...

Wednesday session in Camden

I needed an updated bio for a conference in October.

Using soldiers as a political prop. Trump gave a political speech, lying about protests in front of a group of people dressed as American soldiers. They all appeared to be enjoying the president’s tough talk about the role he wants the military to play in policing the cities. MSNBC should not broadcast this.

I'm trying to make a linkblog with a WordPress RSS feed.

Yesterday I introduced a new feed for great art, 24 times a day. Every hour on the hour.

Today, a version of that feed provides one work of art each day, at midnight, Eastern.

• art.feediverse.org
• artdaily.feediverse.org

Why I did this feed. I'm crafting a new information product, and I want to include a random work of art but not every hour, once a day is enough. I thought it was worth a detour to make the feed that I wanted.

The first work of art in the feed on its inaugural issue was The Countess from Hans Holbein the Younger, 1526. It was chosen at random from a collection of 42,473 works of art.
