FeedCity

When I heard about Matt's product Beeper I thought wow if only that were on the RSS network. Think different, RSS isn't just for news, it's for everything. For a chat program that's trying to support all protocols, why not take a shortcut, immediately connect to all kinds of insanely great things that blow peoples' minds. RSS is going places, help us help.

This piece explains the tragedy of how we've set up communication using our networks, all based on exclusive products, rather than standards which mean you can use whatever software you want for more and more of your communication.

Send this video to your favorite Democrat and let them know that we would pay money to have this video run as an ad running everywhere, exactly as-is, no editing, not made glamorous. This is the truth that absolutely is not getting out about the law the Repubs want. We need to communicate with each other using the amazing tools we have at our disposal now in the third decade of the freaking 21st century.

Every time I stumble on articles or posts discussing tech products, I’m perplexed when someone uses the word “successful” to describe a product with a lot of users. There’s a better word for products like that, and that’s “popular”. Maybe I’m the odd one here, but I don’t th...

My linkblog was down. Thanks to Scott Hanson it's back up!

Wemby was close to getting a 5x5 last night. 19 points, 15 rebounds, 3 assists, 3 steals, 7 blocks. Whenever he has a few steals there’s a chance. Can’t believe the playoffs are next month! 🏀

"If you want stronger decisions, make space for every voice." This is a simple technique to do this in your meetings that really works.

Years ago I made a rule to never use Git submodules, after too many headaches with Subversion externals before switching to Git. More trouble than they’re worth. I broke that rule once and it still trips me up.

My linkblog is down. Still diggin!

If you're using FeedLand and running a WordPress blog, you can install a blogroll just like the one I have at scripting.com or blogroll.social.

I can’t remember the last time a blog post resonated with me this much.

The implications of this case could include the effective end of Section 230 protections – and a new wave of attacks on places where people learn, share, and connect online.

My typewritten baseball scorecard for Tampa Bay Rays at Atlanta Braves on 2026-03-24. I’m trying to work out the cobwebs of my scoring technique before opening day Thursday. I also filled in a card from my #22 Numbers Game scorebook as well. It’s been ages since I tracked pitches. I’m thinking that this would be … Continue reading

I’m in NYC for the Stephan Wolfram dev/ai/nyc conversation tomorrow at the Automattic Noho space. While walking back from the Apple Store in Soho where I had picked up a new Studio Display XDR to try out, ran into one of my favorite YouTube accounts to follow right now, Ari at Home! I ran into … Continue reading Ari & X →

Wednesday session

Terry Godier has a new blog in addition to his main site of longer essays. It looks great. Hosted by Micro.blog. 🎉

People of Brighton, mark your calendars: Saturday, April 4th. That’s when Salter Cane will be playing in The Hope And Ruin.

It’s not just Salter Cane though. We’ll be joined by Skyscrapers from Lewes, and The Equatorial Group from Eastbourne. We’ve played with them before, and they’re superb!

Tickets are available now. They’re £8 in advance. It’ll be £10 on the door. So please get your ticket in advance!

Doors are at 7:30pm. Skyscrapers will be on stage at 8pm, The Equatorial group at 9pm, and Salter Cane at 10pm.

I’m really, really looking forward to rocking out playing songs from our newest album and I would love it if you could make it.

See you there!

This is cool: Bridgy Fed now supports long-form blog posts in AT Protocol via the standard.site lexicon. I guess I need to hurry up with my own implementation of this.

WordPress can now connect via MCP for both reading and writing. This sounds like a possible alternative for the wpcom api that we're building on in WordLand. Sometimes it feels like everything is being reinvented. If the world would just stand still for a moment we might be able to do some building. I wonder how the advent of AI is affecting how WordPress is being developed. I know it's changing everything here.
