New RSS thing coming

There's a new RSS thing coming later today.

We're testing and writing docs. 

I think it's going to be kind of a big deal. :-)

More testing. It's that time of year. ;-)

Testing the second part of this feature.

Technography in the age of AI

Let me tell you about technography, a subject pioneered by Bernie De Koven in the 80s, with Living Videotext outliners.

Gather a group of one or more people, in a conference room, projected on a screen everyone could see. In the corner was the technographer, usually Bernie, and he would start the meeting asking for the agenda. They would start naming topics. Then he'd asking where they'd like to start, and he would move that item to the top, and keep going, and someone would say we should talk about this, and so forth.

As some point if it worked, if there was suspension of disbelief, someone would tell Bernie to move that item down, move another item under Sales, and without realizing it they were using a new tool. 

In 2026, I could see an app that did that for you or a group. An outliner integrated with AI.

Bug 151 appears to be fixed

Another day more fixes.

in the editor, create a link using the link icon, then after the link in the text press Enter, to create a new line. the linebreak shows up in the wrong place. 

That was a bug I reported a while back. Let's see if its still there.

Yesterday I was listening to Summer Breeze by Seals and Crofts and the first few times I listened to it, it really reached me. After 18 listens all I could here were the weird embellishments they put into it to make to so addictive? Who knows. 

Net result, not reproducible. I think we can remove 151 from the list.

USA loses to Belgium

How fucked up would it have been if the USA had won the match with Belgium last night.

Quite possibly the reason the Knicks lost when Trump decided to show his face at an NBA Finals match at the Garden in June.

Claude has a new skill -- it can debug software in the browser, so now I'm out of the loop for having to find the problems, it just did a full survey of common HTML elements you can create in Markdown, and figuring out which ones don't work and then fixing them.

These are some of them. ;-)

The full palette

This post is a demo of everything a post can now carry. Written in Markdown mode, published from the editor.

A big heading

A medium heading

A small heading

Text can be bold, italic, and linked.

Quoted text reads like body text, set off with a thin rule:

The best styling recipes were already sitting in WordLand's stylesheet. We copied them.

A bulleted list:

  • RSS
  • OPML
  • Markdown

A numbered list:

  1. Write
  2. Publish
  3. Read

Inline code like getItemAndReplies, and a block of it:

function helloWorld () {
console.log ("hello, rss.chat");
}

If you're reading this in a feed reader, the feed carries the same HTML -- what you see is what everyone gets.

Andrew, this is what I changed that paragraph to.

There isn't very much I'd have to do beyond adding two Atom elements to my feed, and an Atom namespace declaration in the top line of the file. So it's not an easy thing to do, because I don't see the need for Atom to be a requirement for WebSub, and I'd like for them have had the maturity to do this a different way.

It was meant to make you think, and apparently it did that, but didn't help you see the reason.

It is explained in the next paragraph.

You say:

Did you mean to say "it's not an easy thing to do" or was that a typo? I'm hoping the changes were easy. :-)

I got a little flummoxed by the new UI, but it was a good form of flummoxation. 

I replied to a post by Andrew. Back in the timeline there's the reply. First anxiety quelled. It made it to the server and people can see it.

But where is what it is in reply to?

Calm down and look above the reply, there's a link there, well-labeled.

Lots of changes in the last few days, and I need people to try reading it in a serial fashion. That is come back every few hours to see if something new is posted. And if you see something you have something to add to, reply. And see how quickly you are satisfied your reply was received.

Testing the editor changes

Lots of changes in this release as Claude and I learn how to work with each other in new ways. We have a list of bugs, I keep a list, and add to it regularly. One of the big problems was I had trouble using the Markdown editor feature as opposed to the default wizzy edito...

Something I've wanted for a while. When you're entering a title in the editor, the title should be bold. That's how titles look. ;-)

worknotes.md is started

There's now a worknotes.md file at the top level of both repos.

https://github.com/scripting/rss.chat/blob/main/worknotes.md
You can't see the one on rss.network repo since it's still private.
It will prepare the worknotes files about once a day.
