FeedCity

The new FeedLand release is ready. It's installed on feedland.org, not on feedland.com yet.

Loving a series I just heard about -- it's on Netflix, entitled This Is Going To Hurt. I discovered it the usual tedious way, scrolling through newly available shows on one of the streaming services with my iPad handy and when I see one that looks interesting, I look it up ...

I've got a new version of FeedLand, going to release it in a few minutes. It has all the new stuff I've done to make recognizing updated posts more reliable. Thanks to Brent Simmons for his help from his experience with NetNewsWire. I love it when we work together to make our software work better together. That's the way we help to support the web. That's what the web is about. Making software connections that work, and last.

This post is part of a series, as I play catch-up on KnitFactoryImpl's knitalong of a set in sleeve crew neck sweater for channel members. In the first installment of this series, I made some sleeves, putting me well on time for the knitalong. Since then, however, I spe...

In preparing for some of my end-of-the-year review from my card index, I thought it would be interesting to choose the “Best Note of the Year”. Then it thought it might be worth choosing a “Best Insight”, “Most Surprising Note”, and a “Best Folgezettel” as well.  And if you’re going to give out an award, … Continue reading Zettel of the Year Awards

One mistake I made building the bed platform for my car is these flimsy little brackets. They ended up bending enough over months that they broke in half. Worked on fixing this today.

A thoughtful post today from Laurens Hof in the Fediverse Report about Mastodon’s new CEO and the project’s sustainability. It’ll be interesting to look back a year from now on whether there are visible changes. Hope in the meantime that Eugen Rochko gets some rest and a vacation or two.

We released Epilogue 2.1 for iOS and Android today. Now with easy blogging for movies. Here’s a short video to show the new interface.

I'm continuing to work on the way FeedLand detects changes in feed items. This morning I did a careful study of the function that gets a guid for an item in conjunction with ChatGPT. It would be so much easier if RSS 2.0 required an item-level <guid> element, but it doesn't. That was the philosophy, all item-level values are optional except for a couple. My notes are here.

Good morning sports fans!

So happy with how well the new video hosting with Micro.blog Studio is going. I used to fumble around with video file sizes or just give up and use YouTube. Now I can post everything to my blog.

Android app review submissions have been going through very quickly. Nice work by Google. Even when Apple’s reviews are 1-2 days, I wish they were hours.

Good HWC yesterday. I finally removed SASS from the build-pipeline for this site - using just plain CSS now - and also updated my view-transition syntax, so that those work again now. But apart from this, it was mostly us talking about various topics from home networking and self-hosting to - as often - AI and LLMs. The next HWC DUS is on Dec. 18th.

While there is much to celebrate in WordPress sometimes we must also mourn. In a horribly tragic incident, Zeel Thakkar, a WordPress contributor and Kim Parsell Memorial Scholarship 2025 recipient, passed away on stage at WordCamp Surat. WordCamp Asia has written a beautiful memorial to her. She will be forever on our Remembers page.
