Watching the WNBA finals winding down. Pretty incredible run by the Aces leading into and through the playoffs. Ready for the NBA regular season, almost here. 🏀

Sorry everybody, my @photomatt on Twitter has been hacked, I’m trying to regain account access, but it is not currently in my control.

Have you ever wondered why new CSS features and other web technologies very often seem to just work across browsers these days? The reason is probably: Interop. The Interop Project is a collaborative effort between major browser makers — Apple, Bocoup, Google, Igalia, Micro...

First request for YouTube API access has been rejected by Google because they didn’t like my screencast walkthrough. Annoyed. Might pivot and get back to it later.

We added new settings for your profile page today. By default Micro.blog thinks about most everything as public on the open web, but adding more control here feels right and is consistent with some of our fediverse settings. Here’s a screenshot:

Public Service Announcement: Here’s your gentle maintenance reminder to clean the slugs on your typewriter to keep your type fresh and crisp.

The best thing about working with other people is they push you to consider paths you wouldn’t have thought of yourself. Helps to not get stuck in one narrow way of thinking.

I was just catching up on tweets and saw an announcement earlier this week that Matt Mullenweg is going to lead a town hall discussion at WordCamp Canada next Friday in Ottawa. A week from today. I find that exciting. I'll in the room for sure, and blogging it. Why not? ;-) ...

I know so many people around my age that were never told this simple truth that I heard Steve Jobs say in a video the other day. Paraphrasing -- the people who made the rules you think you have to live by weren't smarter than you. Once you accept this as fact, then if you can find the leading edge you can make it work the way you want it to. You can be one of those people.

It’s a good summary of where my head is that I asked ChatGPT when MySQL started supporting a certain feature, and it said 25 years ago. I often joke that my tech skills are stuck in the early 2000s. 🙂

Today's song: Oh My Love, by John Lennon. I was trying to remember this song. It kept eluding me. It's not one of his most famous ones. It is the clearest theme for what you experience when you fall in love. Clarity. Endless possibility. At home in your life. For the first time.

The Delaware River begins as two branches, before converging into the main river and continuing 282 miles to Delaware Bay. The West Branch begins in Schoharie County and flows down into Delaware County, passing the Cannonsville Reservoir before paralleling Route 17. The East Branch runs from Delaware County through the Pepacton Reservoir before convergence. The “Wedding of the Water”, the convergence of the east and west branches of the Delaware River is near Hancock, NY. The closest view that is easily accessible by car is the New York State’s Department of Environmental Conservations Junction Pool…which is a small area with picnic tables popular with fly fisherman because of its relatively safe position to wade into the river. In fact, I saw several people doing just that.

This is a nifty initiative:

One fairly common concept you’ll inevitably stumble upon if you spend any modicum of time reading discussions on the web is the idea of “two sides”. Some will tell you that the two sides are not the same and one is clearly better than the other, others will argue that not ta...
