John great to see you here. ;-)

The goal is to seed a new way of creating social networks, entirely on the web, with no business model other than I'd like to see the web grow based on the work of independent developers.

I don't think there's a way to get there by going through captive platforms. 

Anyway, happy to answer any questions, while you have been following me, I've been following you back -- always interested in what you see, and what questions you have. ;-)

"Career break" is the most interesting entry in people's LinkedIn profiles. I wonder what they did during that period. If it was "Basically nothing" or "Relaxing" I would want to ask how they achieved that. Those things are possible? How?

The one I saw just now has vague explanation, which is valid. I have my (currently dormant) sole proprietorship to activate whenever I have a "career gap" that I need to explain. "Consulting," I'll say.

I'd love a real career break, though. What's that like?

A wee post about rss.chat based on very little experience.

Thanks Frank, your posts helps put rss.chat in perspective. There are too many questions in my mind at the moment but the appeal of RSS is strong.

Just published some first thoughts on RSS.Chat on my blog. I dig the protocol and the idea. Still have some reservations on the acceptance and how it will be integrated in new and existing services. We'll see.

I’m not talking about spray painted tags on the sides of rail cars, rather those pithy little observations on the walls of restroom stalls. This was a big thing (at least in my circle) during the late 60s and 70s. My post from 2016 with Perplexity analysis in comments. I get a whiff of those heady days from early microblogs (and rss.chat?)

Vancouverites I have say that if you eat meat, Zoomak is one of the best restaurants in the city for lunch. So good!

Why Dave Winer won’t point to Facebook posts (2017)

“It’s supporting their downgrading and killing the web. Your post sucks because it doesn’t contain links, styling, and you can’t enclose a podcast if you want. The more people post there, the more the web dies. I’m sorry no matter how good your idea is, fuck you I won’t help you and Facebook kill the open web.”

the computer "profession" :-) i have worked in for over 40 years is 100% embarrassing. Layers of sand built on sand (just one example, the 1000s of C and C++ libraries that almost all software uses full of vulnerabilities because they are built on 1970s tech that is fundamentally insecure). and yet somehow computers and the developers who run the computers, run the world without any oversight

If I could do it all again, I’d do it with style, whoops, I mean, with a different domain.

Kudos to Past Me, who came up with PEACE (Posting Elsewhere, Aggregating Comprehensively and Eternally), seen here on my indieweb.org profile.

I actually came around to POSSE (Publish [on your] Own Site, Syndicate Elsewhere), though I don't actually believe you can own anything in the end. You'll die, and then what? You can't take any of it with you. It's more like you control what you publish on a domain that you "own" aka rent until…that's right, until you die. I'm more of the opinion that you should save a copy of what you produce, to elongate the life of that thing just a little bit, after where it has been published ceases to exist. What's the catchy acronym for that?

Technically this is all great. I’m just impatient for a product/ client 🤣

Arthur Jensen explains things to Howard Beale (Network)

"The world is a college of corporations, inexorably determined by the immutable by-laws of business. The world is a business, Mr. Beale! It has been since man crawled out of the slime, and our children, Mr.Beale, will live to see that perfect world in which there is no war and famine, oppression and brutality –one vast and ecumenical holding company, for whom all men will work to serve a common profit, in which all men will hold a share of stock, all necessities provided, all anxieties tranquilized, all boredom amused. And I have chosen you to preach this evangel, Mr. Beale."
