Annoyed by yesterday’s server problem. Essentially one of our servers was accepting incoming connections, but it couldn’t connect to another server to verify domain names for SSL certs. The whole point of having Hugo-based static blogs is to minimize dependencies, but there’s always something.

And even better -- here's the RSS feed for my Threads account. This is a huge gateway for interop. I wonder how often the feed updates.
And here's the RSS feed. 😄
The way I see it, if the journos are going to lie to us, why shouldn’t we listen to lies that make us feel good?
A few minutes later, the feed is in my blogroll. 😄
When was the last time the owner of the NYT did a press conference?
I'm looking for an RSS feed for Kamalahq.
It was four years ago this week that Epic Games launched so-called Project Liberty, their attempt to force Apple’s hand on external purchases. Lawsuits, DMA… And now we have third-party marketplaces and Fortnite back in the EU. It’s no longer crazy to imagine we’ll get this worldwide in 2-3 years.

Having one of those mornings where I sort of can’t believe how well this coding is going. Sometimes everything just works.
One advantage of using GitHub for questions tied into a blog is that you get a great archive of all the questions you asked and how people answered or contributed, going back to 2016.
BTW, I've started using Mastodon in place of GitHub for comments on posts like the one below. GitHub has a better model for text with comments, supports full Markdown the way it was meant to work. I have an instance of Masto that I can use that supports Markdown but they do an unacceptable rendering of links. Example post. I want a simple, widely accepted easy place to comment, on the social web, not Discourse or GitHub, that isn't controlled by one vendor (so ActivityPub for now is probably the best approach) and supports plain old Markdown without any weird embellishments. I don't work in the Mastodon world, I'm already committed to the projects I'm doing. But we could really use something nice, designed to plug into blogs. This is a good use-case, and it's pretty close.
I wrote rules for standards-makers and it caught on, and has been used by a few open source projects. I hope that the new rules for journalism, which is just getting started, will be similarly influential. If existing journalism is going to start working again, they're going to have to have some rules. Comments welcome on Mastodon.
Musk is just getting started
Podcast: 11 minutes.
I see happy talk all over the place that Twitter is done, Musk is killing it, blah blah blah.
It's bullshit. In the next few months Twitter is going to morph into the political system that Barack Obama could have and should have built.
It turns out crea...
There are a lot of misses in the current Amtrak map. Las Vegas, which Brightline is making progress on. But one of the biggest has gotta be the station in Maricopa instead of Phoenix. Ridiculous that this route has been broken for decades. (Biden’s infrastructure deal will eventually fix it.)
