Our proposal for adding HLS streaming to RSS so that creators can publish their video podcasts in the open ecosystem.

We just released a new version of Micro.blog for iOS that adds two improvements:

• Redesigned the reply pane to be smaller, with a new username bar for adding or removing people from your reply. Non-modal so you can scroll the timeline behind it.
• Added a new publishing progress pane, to give better status of what’s going on with a new blog post.

Here are a couple screenshots showing the changes:

We’re wrapping up the Android version too. Hope to submit it to Google for approval later this week.

Arizona, New Hampshire, Louisiana and Wyoming have all passed laws requiring voters to prove they are citizens. Texas has been considering one. But critics are raising alarm bells that such laws could make it harder for eligible citizens to vote – in particular, women who have changed their names after marriage or divorce.

The Browser Company has a long post about why they’re working on Dia instead of Arc. On how chatbots and browsers will merge:

Our tabs aren’t expendable, they are our core context. That is why we think the most powerful interface to AI on desktop won’t be a web browser or an AI chat interface — it’ll be both. Like peanut butter and jelly.

It’s rare that a national news story surfaces right at my sweet spot of journalism, book publishing, and Chicago, but yesterday, May 20, was one such special day. On that day, it was discovered by a reader on BlueSky that the May 18 Sunday edition of the Chicago Sun-Times, one of the city’s two daily papers, had published a 64-page summer-themed insert titled “Heat Index” that appeared to have been largely generated by AI hallucination. A section on “summer reading” recommending fake books by real authors like Isabel Allende and Rebecca Makkai was what tipped astute readers off.

Earlier this week, it was discovered that the Chicago Sun-Times and the Philadelphia Inquirer had both published an externally-produced "special supplement" that contained facts, experts, and book titles entirely made up by an AI chatbot. There's been a lot written about this (former Chicago Reader editor Martha Bayne's is the best), and I don't need to rehash it all. But the thing that is most disheartening to me is how at every step along the way, nobody cared.

I asked ChatGPT to review my archive on the Knicks and to summarize my feelings about the team over the years. This is what they said. "Your sentiments toward the New York Knicks over the years appear to be a blend of enduring loyalty, cautious optimism, and occasional frustration. Your writings reflect a deep-rooted connection to the team, celebrating their victories and expressing hope during promising times. At the same time, you don't shy away from critiquing management decisions or expressing disappointment during less successful periods. This combination suggests a passionate fan who remains committed to the Knicks, appreciating their highs and thoughtfully analyzing their lows."

The Knicks are playing the Pacers tonight. Very pivotal. If the Knicks win, it becomes a best of three series, and two of the three games are played at home. Not necessarily so great for the Knicks, they do well on the road. The players say it has something to do with being able to focus on the game and not on family, that came from Mikal Bridges.
