The other day in answer to a CodePen Challenge, I created a thing I call Slideorama Pinwheels. I initially put it on CodePen and submitted it to the challenge / contest.

I posted a quick video to YouTube showing recent improvements in Micro.blog for Mac with notes, including shared notes and the new versions dialog for restoring an old note.

Fidji Simo’s blog post on joining OpenAI reads like an updated mission statement. This was a very good hire. She will be in charge of applications.
Short video demo of Markdown mode in the WordLand editor.
The standard Micro.blog subscription is such a good value that I think Micro.blog Premium gets overlooked. Updated some of the docs today. In addition to email newsletters and bookmark features, Premium gets you 5 blogs, unlimited single-page websites, domain aliases, more. Consider upgrading! 🙂
Quick notes on WordLand v0.5.21. Complete notes to come.
Tweaked a few things with the new “Archive with months” Micro.blog plug-in. Pretty happy with it. Might still integrate search as an option later.

Finished the first pass at a new Micro.blog plug-in with the boring name “Archive with months”, which groups blog posts by year and month. It also has a setting to include the first photo thumbnail in a post if there is one. You can see this on my archive page.
I saw a Waymo with a human driver on 183 today, presumably testing for a new route. First time I’ve seen them on a highway. They expanded farther north in Austin last week too.
