Design
When I think about designing my site, I ask myself: what do I want to explore? What themes are on my mind? What values do I want to bring into the design? How can I express those values with colour and imagery and layout? With every new page I design, I learn something new – ...
The joy of making things
Recently I realised that I have coded things that I use every day. I use my web reader every day to follow along with blogs. I am increasingly using my edit button extension to edit web pages on sites I maintain. I use my website every day.
In the middle of making something,...
Bookmarks
I love finding new links to read. I especially love exploring lists of links. But I struggle to publish lists of links myself. When I’m exploring the web, I get immersed in reading and taking notes and navigating between websites. Publishing link lists is a discrete step.

Revisiting LLMs for Code Development

In many ways I’m a terrible sys admin. For the last couple years I’ve been dealing with ballooning memory usage in Redis, confused, and only now have finally taken some time to understand it. I’ve been running a cleanup script for the last week that has trimmed memory from 45 GB to 16 GB. Whew!
More Dia doubt
Manu Moreale has some thoughts and skepticism about how AI and web browsers are going to mix:
We all yelled and screamed because the web has too many gatekeepers, we all lamented Google search results going to shit, and we all celebrated when new search engines were coming ...

On Browsers, AI, and the web
Almost exactly one year ago I wrote a follow-up post to comment on the newly—at the time—released website by the folks over at The Browser Company, a name I still find incredibly hilarious. It was all about their Arc browser, their big ambitions, and how they were going to I...
BTW, just for fun, a search for Ole and Lena jokes. 😄
UBI
In an interview with Axios today, Dario Amodei warns about the jobs that will be lost because of AI:
Amodei said AI companies and government need to stop “sugar-coating” what’s coming: the possible mass elimination of jobs across technology, finance, law, consulting and oth...

And another retroactive post. After this one. Actually written on 2 June but with a date of 28 May. Figure it out, historians! Love, Joe
May 2025 IWC — More Easily Joining Small Web Communities
🔑😅🗝️ Some IndieAuth confusion
Are you a member of the IndieWeb webring? Or you wanted to be, but you couldn't sign in because of obscure-looking IndieAuth errors?
Turns out when I hastily re-added support for sign-in with indielogin.com I introduced a bug that would end up always using indielogin.com as ...

Sahil Lavingia's DOGE diary
[Sahil Lavingia]
I personally don't think his decision to join DOGE was defensible, but there are lots of interesting details in Sahil Lavingia's diary of the 55 days he worked there.
For example:
"I was excited to help in-source VA's software, but I was al...

Federico Viticci provides an early look at the new LLM-powered automation tool Sky:
The real strength of Sky lies in its ability to mix and match the non-deterministic nature of LLMs with the deterministic approach behind scripts, combining the two in a new kind of hybrid automation that is smarter, more flexible, and more accessible.
Looks impressive. The preview right before WWDC seems like significant timing too.
Matt Mullenweg on how a thought goes to idea to writing to blogs:
Once you publish publicly, you open yourself up to the beauty and chaos of the wider world. The best reason to blog is comments, the people who find you and add to your thoughts, who you never would have imagined.

The Five Layers of Sharing Thoughts and Ideas
I’ve been thinking a lot about mimetic formation, how a thought becomes an idea, and how that idea gestates and evolves as it’s progressively shared in wider and wider circles. During a recent product review of Day One, I was struck by how central the app is to my perspective on humans, relationships, and what … Continue reading The Five Layers of Sharing Thoughts and Ideas →
