Spending hard caps

I was catching up with some tech news yesterday and every time I read one of these “I woke up with a USD 18k bill in my Cloud account” articles, I am reminded about how fucking stupid—and predatory—this whole industry can be. The ability to set hard spending caps should be r...

Own Your Web – Issue 18: Curators

Hi All! 🤗 The Latin word curare means “to take care of.” It’s the root of curator – a person whose work is not to create, but to care. To select, to arrange, to provide context. In a museum, the curator doesn’t paint the paintings. She decides which paintings belong in the s...

New maestros in software

I wonder how many people are working on clones of existing software with an eye toward making a much more evolvable and customizable version with AI at the core of the model. You can make the same software easily, with Claude's help, and if you think about the things users ...

Living the indie web life

In 2018, David and Chris recorded a podcast episode about the indie web in which the topic “living the indie web life” came up. As soon as I heard the phrase, I thought to myself: what does living the indie web life mean to me? This evening I hosted an online Homebrew Websit...

A sign on a ledge reads Please No Drinks On Ledge, with sacks and a green bag in the background.

AI branding

You can probably tell by my blog posts that I prefer OpenAI to Anthropic — more open, more affordable, less doomer — but I’ve gotta hand it to Anthropic for their focus. Doing fewer things, like just Claude Code and the new Claude Design, makes the products more ap...

Joanna Stern launching her new website and YouTube channel:

Every word you read here—every review, every story, every bad joke—is written by me or by a human on my team. […] Don’t get me wrong, we’re using AI all day over here. In fact, we hope to introduce you to our intern agent soon. But the thinking, the reporting, the voice, the calls about what’s true and what’s worth your time—that’s all human.

Making a lot of careless mistakes this morning. I blame the Spurs loss last night, still lingering. I edited an old post, then accidentally deleted it… Happy to remember that Micro.blog now has a trash can and restore feature.

Yesterday I threw a question out there. "If the web were a platform for writers, how would it work?" I left out specifics, because any specifics I provide might cut off interesting answers. There are three elements in the question: web, platform and writers. The answer must say something about all three. Another way of saying the same thing -- "You're using the web to make the platform to serve the writers."

William F. Buckley in a white shirt with a sweater over it and wearing his signature glasses begins a new line of writing on a Hermes 3000 typewriter

I watched the fascinating documentary Best of Enemies: Buckley vs. Vidal (Magnolia Pictures, 2015) last night. An hour and thirteen into the picture, William F. Buckley Jr., who is known to have used a Royal HH and an Olivetti Lettera 32, can be seen abusing what appears to be a Hermes 3000 portable typewriter.
